I mentioned one of our Christmas decor staples is Munchface's tree in her room. What started as a mini tree in her room turned to a mini pink tree from Target. Last year, we hit the jackpot when we were able to get the fiber optic tree from Goodwill for a few bucks. It was the first time the kid ever had a full-sized tree in her room and she loved it! With the move, the kid's tree was left behind. I have the base (odd) but not the actual tree. Weird, I know. Anyhoo, the move has been major for us. The kid has made some serious adjustments. Things are okay but I've been trying to create a sense of normalcy. In other words, I wanted the kid to have her tree.
I went to Goodwill Outlet and found a major deal! Goodwill Outlet sells items by the pound. I was able to get 2 garlands, a large wreath and a pink tree for only $2.40! That means each item was $.60! I thought I hit the jackpot with the tree and I started to make plans for incorporating the tree into the kid's Christmas room decor. Before I could finalize the design, my friend found a tree at Goodwill that was perfect for the kid's room. I loved the tree but I refused to buy it because I already had one... and I got an amazing deal on the tree... hello, sixty cents?! It was a tough decision because-- well, did I mention...
IT IS AN ELECTRICAL PALM TREE!
The lights down the trunk of the tree didn't work so we got a discount on the price.
The manager reduced the price to $9.98. For less than $10, we left with an amazing tree that fit the kid's room decor perfectly. I revamped some of the kid's decor we used last year and I am so pleased with the results!
