Help Build a Rustic Christmas Wonderland — Outdoors Across 2 Acres
We are creating a fully immersive holiday environment — not simple decorating, but building a handcrafted Christmas world from the ground up. We’re looking for a small team of creative makers to help design and construct large-scale outdoor displays, artistic pieces, and warm, magical holiday installations.
Not store-bought. Not cookie-cutter. Not mass-produced.
We want art. We want originality. We repurposed. We whimsy and wonder! We want hands-on design and craftsmanship and most of all we want pure imagination. We want team members who look at raw materials and say, "Let’s turn this into magic."
You will design, build, and create with us.
• Custom wreaths using natural materials
• Evergreen and wood archways and tunnel entrances
• Tabletop and oversized ornaments and sculptural decor
• Salvaged-wood displays, frames, fencing, and rustic crates
• Lantern-lit walkways, bundled greenery, reeds, and accents
• Wrapped trees, glowing paths, vintage light strands
• Cozy seating nooks and hot cocoa gathering spaces
• Photo-worthy installation moments and scenic vignettes
The style: A blend of woodland lodge, handcrafted artistry, and Hallmark-level Christmas charm.
