WhosTheVoss · Three Cheap Boards Paid for my Entire CHRISTMAS! 💰🎄🎁 ↗
What It Is
With three cuts per tree on a miter saw, you turn three cheap boards into sets of chunky standing Christmas trees, sand and paint or flock them, and sell them as trios and duos before the holidays.
The Pitch
He works out about $940 in sales from boards costing $23.08, then subtracts selling fees and taxes to show roughly $900 left, and says the project paid for his whole Christmas.
Who It’s Best For
Beginners who want a simple seasonal product to sell in October and November.
The Truth (as we see it)
Holiday décor sells in a short window, so timing matters. His $900 is from one weekend's batch. Sales mostly come through Facebook Marketplace, local pickup and Etsy, so you'll need to photograph, list and hand over orders. His profit maths leaves out your time, tool wear and fees unless stated. He gives his plans away free on his website.
