I took a particular interest in this collection of DIY-Christmas trees because my 11-year-old artificial tree officially died when I tried to erect it this past weekend. The referring, user-submitted post is full of bright, inventive and colorful ideas for Christmas trees made of materials of all types, from plywood to doilies. They are all pleasing to the eye in their own way, and certainly don't lack holiday spirit. In fact, many of them embrace a return to basics and a decrease in consumer overkill. I could even buy a tiny, needle-dropping, misshapen bush rejected at the Christmas tree lot and everything would be fine, right, Charlie Brown?!
