Transcript excerpt

I made the most magical hallway to look like overgrown trees that encapsulate you as you walk through. Started with these four feet pre lit trees I got from the Home Depot and staggered them in my hallway before using chicken wire to create the extensions above them. As I made my way up the wall and ceiling, I yes these command hooks to easily clip them in and out of place as I knew I'd have to unclip them when it was time to wrap the garland. As I hope this works. I was already unsure whether or not this would hold up, but the cherry on top was when I realized I forgot to order green spring lights that I needed to finish the project. So I took advantage of the Home Depot's fast free delivery service, subject to availability, and was quickly back to work wrapping the chicken wire in the garland and string lights, which I plugged in using this extension cord. I did think about adding roses, but I'm not sure. What do you guys think? Either way, I still can't believe this only took me a couple of hours. I could not have done it without the Home Depot. It truly is the perfect place to go for last minute shopping for projects.
