Extraordinary Christmas Trees From Recycled Materials

Christmas trees need not to be very expensive. You can have a Christmas tree without spending much by creating one from recycled materials.

Be innovative, be creative, recycle and create a beauty. Here are some unusual and extraordinary Christmas trees made from ordinary or recycled materials.

Chains, sprockets, handle bar, scrap metals, bulb sockets, muffler etc, can still be very useful. Assemble and turn those things into a unique Christmas tree like the Handyman Christmas tree.

Just for fun, you can also make those seaweeds and garbage that scatter along the beach into a Christmas tree.

Help in the information dissemination by promoting world's population control and anti-aids programs by creating a Christmas tree out of condoms. Well, this could be the weirdest and most unusual Christmas tree you've ever seen.

Develop your skill in the art of recycling, a kind of art we should all learn about especially during financial crisis like this. Turn those soft drink cans into something useful and beautiful by using them as primary materials in creating a peculiar Christmas tree.

The awesome Mountain Dew Christmas Tree was created using about 400 cans of Mountain Dew. Gloves, socks, plastic bottles, bottles and many other materials can be used to create a unique Christmas tree.

A unique Christmas tree made of two chainsaws and two lawnmowers hanging by hooks on huge chains. Isn't it a fun and artistic way of creating a Christmas tree for the holidays?

Well, I'm going to think before I throw anything away. Could this go on a Christmas Tree?

What a fun article. Actually I use an artificial one over and over too, but this year may not take it down from the attic because I have a super playful kitten. I may come home from work every night to a mess of strewn ornaments every where. Bad kitty.

Take care and Happy holidays!!

THis was great. Great way to recycle for Christmas. Just think about the mind of someone that can take junk and create beauty from it. That my friend, is an artist.

These are hilarious. I would be afraid to brush up against one in the fear of being cut. Sharp edges! lol

Nobert, these are the weirdest Xmas trees I have ever seen. I think I will stick with my old artificial tree a little longer. I like to take junk and make something useful out of it though. That's right up my ally.

I like the fact that these are recycled trees. HOwever, I still prefer the more traditional kind. I use the same artificial tree every year, so I'm satisfied that I'm not adding to the destruction of the planet.

Thanks for sharing this.

An interesting concept. Perhaps good idea for a handyman or a creative genius. Not for me but fun to read about.
