oh Christmas tree

This week I planned ahead and wanted to take part in Kelly’s “Show Us Your Life” post. The theme of the week is Christmas trees. I created a collage of some of the hand painted ornaments. This is only eight of the ornaments I’ve painted. I used to decorate my tree in nothing but homemade pieces, but I broke down a few years ago and started “allowing” other ornaments on the tree. 🙂

The tree (and our enormous tv):

I’m excited about the holidays this year. It may have something to do with the fact that we aren’t moving in December (like last year) or the fact that I’ll get to see my brother on December 26. Either way, it’s going to be great. I just know it.

Check out Kelly’s blog for more trees and inspiration – next year I would love to decorate two trees, so these photos are definitely going to be helpful to me!
