20FT Lighted Christmas Tree: Tips and Tricks #diy #christmastree #christmaslights #holiday

 

Last year I created my very own 20ft. outdoor lighted Christmas tree. Needless to say I had some issues with putting it up and keeping it up. This year the Tree is back and better than ever. Using my previous experience, I made this video to give you tips and tricks to make it much easier. The base of the tree is the most important part and this year I found just the thing to use. This video is a companion video to my tutorial last year. In That video I walk you step by step to making the tree. In this one I focus more on tips and tricks to make your life easier.
