Us rednecks don't feel the need to impress people, and that philosophy carries into the way we decorate our homes and trees for Christmas. For the redneck wannabe who wants a Redneck Christmas tree, this guide's for you:
Redneck Christmas tree garland: Forget that fancy stuff from the store. Great Christmas garlands can be made from food you have in the kitchen. Cheetos and fruit flavored marshmallows make great garlands. One great pattern you can use is 10 cheetos and one marshmallow, which is repeated until you run out.
Redneck Christmas tinsel: For no cost redneck tinsel, head out to the hay alley and collect up all that orange baling twine that's been piling up for the past 20 years. Cut the twine into 6" strips, and drape on the tree just like store bought tinsel.
Redneck Christmas flocking: I hate the look of flocking myself, but if Christmas flocking is a tradition in your household, do what most rednecks do and toss shredded toilet paper on the tree instead.
Redneck Christmas ornaments: Redneck guys with style will decorate their Christmas trees with Budweiser empties and empty Marlboro packages. For this citified redneck, Coors Silver Bullet and Keystone would be my pick of color coordinated cans in a Christmas colored theme. The empties could be hung intact, or smashed flat and attached to the tree with bits of fishing lines.
Don't drink? You can also make great ornaments from empty shotgun casings, dried hog ears, chicken feet, and empty cans of Copenhagen. Urban rednecks can hit a Hay & Feed store for John Deere miniatures to drape on the tree or a Shopko store for glass "beer can-themed" Christmas ornaments.
Redneck tree topper: Personally, I prefer a ball cap with the name of a local feed store for my tree topper though antlers would also look wicked awesome. My redneck neighbor however tops his tree with an inverted KFC bucket.
Redneck Christmas tree skirt: A blue vinyl-weave hay tarp works for our family, and will work for yours as well.
Redneck Christmas yard decor: This redneck deer light is my pick for the very best of all redneck yard decor I've seen on the net. As far as I'm concerned, it would be the perfect finishing touch to hang in the front window of any redneck's home during the Christmas holidays.

Post a Commenti reckon i see your point jeanne, i did not know that you were in idaho.i am in the south and stuff. i never thought that there would be rednecks in the yankee area. never thought that that would be possible. too much controversie because others would think we were too uncivilized. but, it is america.
Mmm I see. Court, I reckon that Idaho rednecks are quite different than those in the south because quite honestly, these are all ideas that many of my redneck single guy friends use.
i didnt say u said that i just simply stated the fact that most ignorant people guess. those ideas you have are more hillbilly than anything. i didnt say you werent able too write this article all i am stating is that it needs a little improvement is all. well thats about it. you seem nice though. sorry if i am mean or anything i am well, not a "nice" person in ways, i like to share my opinion.
Hey Court, this was a light heartened look at Redneck decor, and I don't believe I even mentioned popcorn and cheerios nor buck teeth & overalls. And FYI, I was raised a redneck and still am in many ways which is why I'm immensely qualified to write this article :)
i am 13 years old and just to let you know cheerios and popcorn have no relation to rednecks. that was idiotic and i'm sorry for being mean but that is no idea to be redneck. i am a redneck and i make straight a's. i hunt and am a true redneck. some ideas are using as you said beer cans as ornaments also on homemade wreaths. you could also take empty shot gun shells and string them as ornaments. i am doing all that this year for our tree plus taking some deer antlers for the "star" on top of the tree, with some camo christmas lights i found at my local hardware. also osme pinecones as ornaments. rednecks are not idiotic people with buck teeth or overalls. there are 2 types of rednecks. the uncivilized ignorant idiots. the other is straight up civilized country folk who intend on living there life. thats all i have to say.
LOL! Very funny! I wish I would have thought of this when I tended bar- we could have had a lot of cigarette pack ornaments. :)
LOL, love it :-D
What can I say Betty, you can take the girl out of the country but....
LOL!! I didn't expect this from you!
David, I actually thought of that too ~ but figured the youngsters would have no idea of what I was talking about!! We used to make belts out of them in highschool, LOL.
