Christmas gifts were used to hide some of the structural parts of the tree, like the tree stand
After around a year of storage, Newland decided to auction it off online. 34 bids later, he sold Treezilla on TradeMe for 415 New Zealand dollars (roughly 270 US dollars). He set a 250 dollar reserve, so everything above that number went towards the Canteen children’s charity, which supports young people with cancer.
When asked about future projects, Newland had this to say: “This year’s tree is still under wraps (excuse the pun). I can tell you that it involves 5 meters of chain, a beer crate, and I had to buy a ceiling fan…”
“Also, remember all of the trees I’ve made in the past—I didnt have children,” continues Newland. “Now that I do, I can go over the top, and I have a prop!”
