Cozy

Austin Nooe from DC Metro Church in Alexandria, Virginia brings us this homey Christmas design. (originally posted July 2016)

On stage they had a total of seventeen trees. Austin recommends finding a tree that’s pre-wrapped so you don’t have to spend the time wrapping them:

Eight 4 foot trees – https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MS7VNXQ?th=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=csdi-20&linkId=0b0abb55dac2a5821072bc703d729486&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
Six 7.5 foot trees – https://www.amazon.com/National-Tree-Carolina-Flocked-CAP3-306-75/dp/B003MANSNG?crid=2Y02RV62LNBON&keywords=7.5 ft christmas tree prelit&qid=1671737219&s=home-garden&sprefix=7.5 ,garden,125&sr=1-7&linkCode=sl1&tag=csdi-20&linkId=ef7e05373ba77367cde7199f55476edb&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
Three 9 foot trees – https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0024FEXNO?th=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=csdi-20&linkId=a9e61a3efb1f735c0bd33699d025bde3&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl

Under all the trees was a fake snow that he purchased from Home Depot. They had about four bags of it for this stage (they had three stages we did this to). They were about $4 a bag.

Second, he wrapped more than 100 empty boxes of various sizes he received from grocery stores for free of various sizes. He used five different metallic wrapping papers from Costco for about $40 altogether.

Last, because this was their first week in this building with the LED wall, it had been miscommunicated that the LED wall would be just a foot off the ground which would have made that back graphic work better. Here is a link to the download for the looping video if you would like to use it (go ahead!). https://vimeo.com/173629086
