I put my trees up this past week!
A little one in front of the window in the living room is decorated with candy canes, lollipops, cinnamon cut out ornaments and gum drop ornaments. I posted here last year on how to make the gum drop ornaments. And I posted here on how I made the cinnamon dough ornaments.
And our large one is in front of the sliding glass doors in the family room. First I put all vintage glass ornaments on it and then I just had to add some of my hand made ones.
A happy note. . . two of my sons had birthdays over the weekend.
A sad note. . . my father in law passed away Saturday. He was a wonderful man and will be missed. But he is out of pain now and has gone to a better place. Remember his family in your prayers.
Janet, your trees are pretty. Looks like there are plenty of presents already, too. You are so right about Jim being a wonderful man. I took the boys to see him on Wed. and we all had a good visit, so thankful we got to spend that time with him.
ReplyDeletesorry to hear about your father in law - we'll be praying for your family. God Bless You
ReplyDeleteYour trees are wonderful, and I admire the energy it must take to put up and decorate them! I just saw on another blog where they have 8 trees up!

Merry Christmas and Happy VCM,
