Upcycle Plain LED Tree to Birch/Aspen Tree
I have had this plain LED tree for a while. I almost got rid of it last summer at our garage sale. I just felt it was missing something. When I was walking through Target this holiday season I saw they were selling trees like this one and they looked like aspen or birch trees. They were super expensive and the light bulb went on! I can do this with my tree with just a little Paint!

You’ll need:
An LED Tree – find one on clearance this time of year or see link below
I used painters tape to cover all the LED lights.
I painted the entire tree with the Dixie Belle Fluff
When that had dried I accented the tree with Dixie Belle Midnight Sky to give it the Aspen/Birch look.
How many of you look at those trees and see the eyes looking at you???
Here is the finished tree, and I love it so much more now!
I’m excited to put it back up again after the fresh new update and I have a feeling it’ll be up longer than just the holiday season.

Thank you so much Stephanie and the feeling is mutual with all your creations and blog posts as well. Big Hugs and Happy Holidays my friend 🙂
I love birch trees. As a matter of fact, we planted one when we first moved into this house 45 years ago. I need to find one of these light branch trees like you used to make one of these for my office. That room never get’s decorated and I have to clean it up and clear things out. It’s on my to do list. 🙂
Thank you Linda, and worst case if you have a spare branch laying around you could always use that (either a real birch branch or another that you paint) and add lights from the Dollar Tree to it 🙂
Duh, I didn’t think of using a real branch. LOL We did have to have one of them trimmed way back a couple of years ago because when it snowed a lot, the branch would lay down over our driveway. We had to shake it numerous times to get enough snow off of it so that it could pop back up. 🙂
what a transformation! Well done!
Thank you so much! I love the tree again and I’m so glad you like it too 🙂
