Vintage Christmas Bottle Brush Tree Display

Everyone loves vintage items, especially during the holiday season. This year make your own vintage bottle brush tree display to show off all of your favorite vintage ornaments! Bottle brush tree decor is a lot easier to make than it looks and only requires a few simple supplies that you probably already have lying around. You can use any bottle brush trees you want, but I found mine at the dollar tree and a thrift store for just $2 a bag! Follow these steps below to find out how easy it is to create this beautiful decoration.
