I have been working on this little Putz Christmas Tree Lot for a few days. Finished it today. This is much like the two I’ve made before, but I try to make each one a little different from the others. This one has lights, which is a first. Also a snowman, rather than a mailbox. It also sits on the lot a bit differently than the others. Each Christmas Tree Lot gets a different name, also.
To prepare the tree lot for lights, I had to put up two tall poles in the back of the lot to hang the lights. I drilled holes into the base to give them a bit of stabilty with some hot glue. I also added a fence which helps to brace the light poles. Here the lot is ready to have the lights attached.
And they’re up! And looking very pretty in the morning sunlight!
At this point, I have added trees, icicles and a snowman.
Some Christmas wreaths and a sign finish it off!

The Noel Farms Christmas Tree Lot is listed in my Etsy Shop, ChristmasNotebook. I hope it finds a happy home!
Is there a village shop or house you would like to see as a Putz house? I’d be happy to give it a try!
UPDATE December 21, 2016: This Noel Farms Christmas Tree Lot has sold. I am happy to make custom items if something similar is wanted. I can make a tree lot or farm sign with your last name, your child’s name or other wording. I can create new Putz houses based on your family’s heirlooms, or make anything in my Etsy shop in the color of your choosing.

I think this might just be my favorite house you’ve made so far. Fantastic job and the lights are perfect. It reminds me of the lot where my father and I would pick out our tree every year.
Funny as I did a Christmas Tree Lot on my China Cabinet with various size artificial trees so as little as 4″ to 2 feet. Each has a strain of working fairy lights, base covered in different kinds of snow as well as the trees. And my daughter surprised me the other day with a custom made sign: Buddy’s (my dad) Tree Lot with a picture of his vintage Ford truck and a tree tied to it. It was just the sweetest idea.
Hope you and your family have a Very Merry Christmas and you are all blessed with good health and peace.

Sandra, thank you for leaving your comment. I enjoyed reading it. I can imagine how delighted you were to receive the sign and photo of your father’s truck. Such a sweet gift from your daughter! I’m glad you like the Noel Farms Christmas Putz. It’s my favorite! Merry Christmas! ~~Rhonda
