I am never 100% satisfied with our holiday decorations. I really love white bottle brush trees, but they are always hard to find and expensive. Earlier this fall I read instructions on craftster on how to bleach and dye your own trees. (Edited to add, there are also really great instructions here) I bought a big bag at Michael's.
Soaked them in bleach.
And it totally worked!
I have had a full pan of bleach in the basement ever since.
This year we have new family room cabinetry and mantle, which will present an all new challenge. This white cabinet used to be in one of the corners of that room. I was going to move it to my studio, but when I scooted it out of the way for the carpenters, I realized it looked okay, so there it stayed.
