If you’re hesitant to get your tree removed because you’re not ready to part with it, you can find some ways to repurpose your stump so that your tree can always stay with you.

If you are looking for stump removal services in Parkland County, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. It may be time to remove your beloved old tree, but having your tree taken down may mean getting to reserve part of it as trendy décor!

Here are some creative ways that you can give an entirely new purpose to your tree stump:
 

Candles

 
If you are dealing with smaller tree stumps, you can hollow out the insides to insert tea lights and use them as candles! This is a great way to bring nature indoors and make the most of your tree stump.  

It sounds harder than it is; there are plenty of guides online that will teach you how to make your DIY tree stump candle. 
 

Cutting Board

 
There are a lot of resources for you to sand down your tree stump and seal it so that you can use part of it as a rustic cutting board.
 

Serving Platter

 
If you feel like your repurposed tree stump is too beautiful to cut veggies on, you can always use it as a serving platter for nuts, dips or charcuterie. Your new serving platter is guaranteed to be the star of your next dinner party.

Coffee Table

 
It can be emotional to remove a big tree that’s always brought some character to your home. The good news is that even if you have to take it down, you don’t need to say goodbye to it forever! 

Get the stump cleaned up a bit to use it as your coffee table – after all, natural-looking coffee tables are rustic and incredibly trendy right now. The only difference between your stump and tables sold in furniture stores is that when you use your stump, you are saving the money that you’d spend on purchasing one that has been mass produced. 

Be sure to check online for different DIY guides that will help guide you in revitalizing your tree stump. 
 

Chairs

 
Have you been thinking about sprucing up your patio? A higher stump would make for the perfect stool outside.
