Keeping Your Peace

Fill a 5 gallon bucket (https://amzn.to/3xvApUZ) with sand (https://amzn.to/2ZsX33J). Cut a 2 inch hole in the center of the lid of the bucket. Cut a piece of 1 1/2 inch PVC to 7 feet (https://amzn.to/3cSEwku). Put pvc (you can buy a 8 or 10 foot length at your local home improvement or box store) through the hole and secure into the sand. Cut the RV insulation (https://amzn.to/3rgItYQ) into 2-3 inch strips starting with 48 inch long strips. Then after 4-5 rows (20-25 strips) shorten the strips by 6-8 inches every 4-5 rows. You may need 2 rolls. I'm not sure because I uses some that I had left over from our travel trailer. Tape (https://amzn.to/3rbyZxT) on end of the one of the longest strips onto the bottom of the pvc. Do this in 4 directions and then go back and get the other end and tape it and inch or 2 to the right of where you started with that strip. This creates a loop that is slightly twisted. keep doing this starting from the bottom of the tree and moving upward until the tree is full. Then hook the curtain lights (https://amzn.to/3CYEBhf) to the top of the pvc and drape them down the tree while pulling them through the loops. Use the duct tape to create a cap around the hooks at the top of tree. Plug it in and enjoy! So beautiful and so easy! As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

God's promises and direction show us how to walk in peace no matter what is happening around us.

This is what freedom looks like. It's worth fighting for. Don't let them take it from us!
