TREE STUMPIN'

Destruction of nature in the name of home decor. Ahhhh... (crickets chirping cut short by a chainsaw in the background). Ain't it grand?  If Fern Gully taught us anything, it's that when we destroy trees, the most awesome character in the movie (a sludge monster named Hexus voiced by Tim Curry/Dr. Frank-N-Furter) comes and sings us a kick-ass song.   So what's not to love?  And what better way is there to remind ourselves every day that we're decimating forests and depleting our oxygen than to put a cool tree stump in our home?  Tree stump side tables and chairs? Yes please!  It just makes you want to go out in the yard, proudly hoist your tree stump in the air and yell at the squirrels and birds, "Hey bitches, I stole yall's house!" Of course I kid.  I love all of God's little forest creatures; foxes, rabbits, bugs, squirrels, little birdies, and my most favorite forest creature of all, the tiny and elusive Prince.  But I love me a good tree stump, so let's explore some of the awesome ways that people have used them too add a touch of nature, albeit dead nature, to their homes.

This one comes with a great tutorial
