DIY Wooden Christmas Trees

If you enjoy the idea of an alternative Christmas tree or if you want a festive decoration that is a little different, then why not try a wooden triangle-shaped tree?

You can really get creative with this idea by using different colors, adding various ornaments, and playing with size and scale. You can use either scrap wood or shims. Choose to either have a backing if you want to place items inside or just make a triangle frame to form the tree's shape.

This wooden Christmas tree will really add to your holiday decor. Incorporate beautiful buffalo plaid patterns as a backing or bows. Of course, you can also purchase similar in stores and online if you don't feel like making them yourself.

Dollar Store Wooden Christmas Tree

These trees are made from dollar store shims which are secured together with mod podge. Add some wood backing, and then paint in the color of your choice. It makes a lovely scene if you choose festive decorations to place inside, such as deer, for example.

Gnome Wooden Christmas Trees

For gnome fans, this will really hit the mark. It could also be a wonderful place to hide your elf on the shelf too. Use a dollar store candle holder as the base of the tree.

Sparkly Wooden Christmas Tree

This tree really is a joy to look at. The backing is created using shiplap, which is always a popular choice for wood crafts.

3D Wooden Christmas Tree

You can also layer up the shims to create a more 3D effect for your tree, as in the image above. A dollar store mini wooden crate is used for the base, while a big black and white buffalo plaid bow adorn the tree's top.

Pine Cone Wooden Christmas Tree

Layering up festive faux winter berries and pine cones will look delightful. Carefully placed pops of gold bring the whole piece to life and add a lovely warmth.
