Easy Christmas Tree Project is fast, cheap and so very simple to make! It’s great for outside, on your porch, or by your front door! This is a simple, budget-friendly do-it-yourself project that you’ll enjoy making and looking at for years.

Alternately, if you’re tired of sweeping up dried tree needles from your living Christmas tree, this is a great option for inside. For inside, you can use these lights.

DIY Christmas Tree Craft Project

It’s the simplest thing in the world. Get those cheap tomato cages, these were less than $2 each. I used 2- 200 count strands of white lights and 1- 24 count strand of colored lights on each tree.

Lighted Christmas trees built using tomato cages.

You can get the tomato cages here. As well, here are the colored outdoor Christmas tree lights.

Turn the cage upside down and secure the three prongs with wire or zip ties.

Then just start wrapping the white lights around the tomato cage to create the Christmas tree!

Easy Christmas Tree Project is a simple, budget-friendly do-it-yourself holiday project. Bring festive lights to the front porch!

You can secure the lights to the metal with zip ties or wire if needed.

    Very pretty, but I'm sure I'd find a way to screw it up!
