6 Easy Vintage Christmas Tiered Tray DIYs

[@tracygreen1920]

Omg I had to stop the video. I am so excited over your diys . It's exactly what I have been looking for . I thought the books were amazing especially because I remember having both of those books as a child. I especially remember the Rudolph one. And I was born in '71 so they were old then. Anyway I'm so freaking happy about the "aluminum tree " HAD TO STOP THE VIDEO!!! IVE BEEN DIYING FOR ONE IN MY LIVING ROOM LOL. AND NOW I KNOW EXACTLY HOW TO DO IT. I DON'T THINK IT WILL BE EASY BUT HEY.... LAST YEAR I PAINTED PURPLE GLITTER WOODEN BEADED GARLAND...TWELVE OF THEM . LOL. HAHA.. I was doing an old country Christmas., Buffalo check etc... I've always been a glam girl at heart tbh.. but I found at least til I found you my girl. That most of the channels are over the top. I think you put enough of your decor that you make it classy. I'll be honest my favorite color is "SHINY" LOL. And I love the sophisticated way you do your decor . Girl loved the trees you made I think it may have been an older video. But you made trees from wedding flower bells . Genius saved cash too because you used the ball woman after my own heart . And I am Canadian actually from Nova Scotia,Cape Breton Island so I have a Dollarama. Woot woot. I don't have a dollar tree . But I have a lovely friend and a sister diyer whom you may well know if not . Then check her out Daisy Tolson from Oopsie Daisy DIY and more .. she does everything that one. Diys ,Dollar tree hauls , she does cross stiching as well. She's amazing and I am proud to say a friend whom I have grown close to recently. She has actually taken me on a Dollar tree shopping trip via messenger lol... And has picked me up items that she knew I couldn't get at Dollarama. Now how's that for kindness. Just a great and talented gal like yourself. Love for you to give her a shout out girl. And I pop plan on doing a channel soon hopefully. Yeah right. Just opened and used my Cricut joy today only had it 6 months. Oh game changer.for sure. Anyway I'll get back to the video lol . Love your channel. So glad I'm here

The tree, hands down! I remember when I was a little girl at Christmas we had an aluminum tree that was lit by one of those rotating, color-changing lights that would circle around and change the color of the tree. Kids are so mesmerized by that!!

[@MissMolly3377]

I used to have that Rudolph book, as a child. I wish I still had some of those old books. However, they were in my grandma's house, and got ruined, from water damage. These ideas were beautiful. I love all things vintage.

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much! I’m so sorry to hear that the books were lost 😞

[@pamkopp3284]

Absolutely loved all of them

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much 😊

[@prympammi]

Loved this! Now I have to find my silver tree!!

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much!

[@dorothylehman4164]

Well that makes me excited because I was born in 1950 and as I got a little older three or four I remember some of those especially little plastic deer they were so cute and some other things I didn't really have any but I've seen other people have them cuz I didn't have any of those things when I was growing up but I remember those things keep up the good work

[@nonisnest9718]

I love every one of these, being a child of the 50s!!

[@dianewilson3769]

Boy did you bring back some memories! I have both of those books from when I was a child, and your snow globe is spot on! You did a great job, thanks for the memories🥰🤶🧑‍🎄

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much Diane! I’m so glad I was able to help bring back some memories with these DIYs! It was so much fun working on them and makes me want to do all my Christmas decor in the vintage 1950’s style!

[@conniegreeno3249]

[@brendamoore7633]

I ❤ The Christmas Standups. plan on making them. Thank You.

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much! They are the cutest! I’m thinking about adding on to this tray this coming holiday season so hopefully I will have another video soon!

[@cooldogsofwv]

Love all the projects!!

[@Sherri419393]

Beautiful job ! Took me back in time to 1958 when my grandmother bought an aluminum tree and grandpa bout laughed her out of the house !!

[@jewellcrawford5136]

My mother bought a 4or5 ft aluminum tree back in the day. Not that we were crazy about it but I think she enjoyed not having to buy a real tree every year. I love the books or boxes. Instead of having a google and printers to use but we used a Sears and Roebuck catalog to use ideas and for pictures. Thanks

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much! I would love to be able to find one of those original aluminum trees, I think they are gorgeous! What a fantastic idea to use a Sears and Roebucks catalog for inspiration and pictures! 😊

[@lynndopson1821]

Oh my goodness, the silver tree is brilliant! We had one when I was a kid. I ran right out and bought a can of silver paint, my little tree is beautiful. Thank you for reminding me of a wonderful childhood Christmas memory.

[@tracygreen1920]

Oh so happy for you. I'm excited to do a bigger one lol . I'll let yall know how it goes. Lol

[@tracygreen1920]

Oh I seen that you commented 11 months ago lol . Ya I know I should have checked maybe first.

[@mariefborunda1444]

[@kristinbrown5683]

[@tracygreen1920]

I hope that she does them again too.i Just found this video. Woot woot I'm so excited.

[@linjones1195]

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much Lin 💜

[@tracygallo761]

Loved these crafts! Very nice!

[@maxinelovescrafts]

Stephine these were all so so vintage and I love them. Girl that silver tree wow I can’t believe you spray painted it and it looks great.

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much girl!! I had so much fun with these and the colors are just so cheerful it was hard not to enjoy working on them! Girl I’m telling you I want an original aluminum Christmas tree but my family isn’t on board with the shiny color but I may have to paint our tree 🤷‍♀️😂

[@beckybrewer9796]

Love, love, love the tree🎄. My next two favorites were the standees and the adorable vintage books❣️

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much Becky! The tree is definitely my favorite but it was hard for me to pick just one!

[@switchbladekid57]

The "aluminum" tree is my absolute favorite.

[@renehamilton8865]

I grew up with one of those silver trees - and we also had a real tree too. I LOVE the ornaments. One of the one I've held onto from my childhood is the ones similar to the terrarium ornaments. I think I will make one of those for each of my grandchildren. Thank you!

[@lisawaschko7941]

The little books were, hands down, the best. Next would be the silver tree. My grandma had one, but with no ornaments. Instead there was a light off to the side that had a color wheel that went round and round changing colors on the tree. I think the tree turned too. I was mesmerized.

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much Lisa! I wish I could have figured out how to make a color wheel for it and that’s exactly what I would have done lol!

[@pattscollectons1234]

Good morning Stephanie, those cutouts would be cute on a tier tray, we use to make them but using cardboard to stand them up back in the 60's. Oh my I had that little book. Oh yeah the Tree and the Popcorn Garlanland so many memories you have brought back my complete childhood even the little tree. This is my absolute FAVORITE Video sorry to all the other ladies. Only thing missing is the other garland made out of made from construction paper...lol....love the snow globe also. We had some like that but didn't make them, I still have a Santa one like that.

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Awe thank you so much Patricia! I’m so happy that you enjoyed all my vintage projects and that they were able to bring back fond Christmas memories! I did have a little help getting these projects as close to vintage as possible thanks to my dad he grew up in the 50’s so he was my main inspiration. Thank you so much again and I hope you will stop by again soon 💜

[@susanventuraahrens8878]

I love them all! 😀

[@carlahoag7154]

These are excellent! I remember Christmas in the late 1950s and these fit right in. Can't pick just one as my favorite - I like them all.

[@BessBright]

You are so resourceful! Iloved this!❤

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much!!

[@sharonjacobs5351]

What great ideas ! ! . . As a child of the late 50-60's I can truly enjoy your creations ! We had a large silver tree in my 2nd grade classroom ! I always hated them and laugh now when people call them "desirable" . . LOL . 😂 . . #1 . Had you thought of perhaps adding a few little bells in the classic cover faux books before you glue them shut ? Just an extra touch you and your family/guests would find a bit of fun . . 🤷 . . Jingle bells were always popular in my early years. . Another idea ? #3 . Put a small tea light (available at Dollar Tree) in the terrarium ornaments . . Placing them in front of the figures would make them easy to get to for replacement batteries . . #2. Painting what would be the top of the ball a dark or royal blue turning it upside down . When it's dry paint what would be the bottom inside of the ornament white . Turn it so the blue is on top and the white on the bottom . Add tiny gold stars ( available in the "Make Your Own Jewelry" section at Walmart) to the blue painted area of the inside of the ornament and you have a little stary night ! Add faux snow and a figure of your choice . . . Thanks again for the ideas ! You really got my creative juices flowing ! ! . . 🤔.😲 . 😁. . Again , . . Hurray for Vintage ! ! . . 🎄 . 🥰

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much Sharon 💜! I had a lot of help from my dad on this one he grew up in the 50’s so he gave me lots of little tips lol! Those are all fabulous ideas I would have never thought about putting bells in the book and the tea lights in the ornaments is genius!

[@sharonjacobs5351]

@@MamaCanMakeIt Thanks for writing back ! . I loved art sin I was a little kid . I drew a picture of my dad when I was three , it's hilarious . My mom still has it ! . . I even remembered his belly button . Imagine that ! . . 😅. . Took every art class I could in school . Good thing too . I was terrible at sports . . 😲 . . Worked at then managed Floral shops during my years and did wedding flowers at home . I loved it . 💐. .I don't have much of an outlet for it now as I'm living alone and retired . I'm so glad to pass on my ideas . Hope they may give you some more ideas . . 🤔 . . By the way , I thought maybe a little pyrimid of sticks to fit over the tea light I mentioned ? . . Vewl-la . . A campfire or fire in a fireplace . 🔥. . Thanks again . . Looking forward to more of your DIY's .! ! ! .🥰

[@alicecole2062]

I love that tree

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much Alice!

[@bonniebryant3238]

OMG the little hooks are outstanding! They would be great risers for decor as well as on a tiered tray! I’m sprinting to DT tomorrow to find some of the boxes.

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much Bonnie! I’m so glad you liked the books! I hope you were able to find the boxes at your local DT!

And that snow globe was adorable. And now I want to go eat popcorn, hehehe. Thank you so much for joining me today.

Thank you so much Brenda 💜! I had so much fun making these projects! I now want to do all my decor in the 50’s style…I wonder if the family would get on board with that lol! Thank you so much for inviting me to participate in this collaboration with all of you talented women it was a blast!

I love that tinsel tree. We always had a real tree but my grandmother had a tinsel one and it looked just like yours only bigger. ❤️

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much Judi! I remember my grandmother having one as well and I loved it then and I would absolutely love to get my hands on a full sized aluminum tee!

[@UpAllNightDIY]

Hi Stephanie!! Can I just say that I looooove all of these projects! My Christmas decor is that retro 50s-60s atomic aesthetic, so I'm 100% digging your creations!! Spray paiting the tree silver is genius! TFS!! 🤗❤

[@jomo9862]

Now all that's missing with the silver tree is the reflector light that makes the tree diff colors.

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Yes! A color wheel would really bring all the classic vintage feels!

[@tiffanymartinez0929]

Try using a pouring medium to mix with your paint next time. It’s much faster at coloring the inside.

[@pamelakitchens5549]

On the tabletop ornaments how did u prevent the snow inside from falling out

[@Flag-time226]

I love this!! I just now came across this video!! When you seal the cranberries and popcorn.. how long does it keep? Like will it last 2 weeks, 4 weeks?

[@MamaCanMakeIt]

Thank you so much! Once the garland was sealed it lasted until I packed the tray away which was roughly 6 weeks and then the cranberries were just starting to dry up a little.

[@pamelakitchens5549]

Could u put water in them or what would u add to make a liquid that would work ?

[@lisam7511]

Do you have a link to the printable stand up decorations by any chance?
