Easy Christmas Tree watering system


So I've been asked to share this simple yet effective tool with my blogger fans....

Every Year we get a real tree.. I LOVE a real Christmas tree ...

And ever year I deal with Sap in my hair, needles down my shirt and the ever popular possible tree falling over or small puddles on the floor...

So this year I concocted a simple yet effective watering system...

tools you will need.. a pair of heavy duty scissors , Clear tubing, or an old garden hose, and a funnle that the end bit fits snugly into the tube.

simply cut the tube to your desired length at a good "pouring" height then shove one end into the base of the water reservoir of the stand, you may need to tie it into place make sure not to crimp the hose or tubing..
then fish the tube upwards along the trunk of the tree, then pop it out and put the funnel into the tube, if you can find a green funnel it will hide better... but any colour will work...

Simple and shouldn't cost more than 10 bucks to make ...
