Unbelievably...Christmas is here again - almost!

(yeah, I know...every December 25!)

But first Happy Thanksgiving!

I know I will be getting ready for some Christmas decorating after tomorrow...

it always starts with the tree in my house...

so I thought I'd share 2 of my

FAVORITE CHRISTMAS TREE RELATED PROJECTS!

Over the last couple of years I have made many projects I like...

but here are just a couple you might want to tackle

over the long Thanksgiving weekend.

Both are (pretty) simple.

First, one for the kiddos!

My little girlie likes to decorate the tree...all month long, so I created

And, next, one is for those of us who hate ugly tree stands!

(like me!)

A Christmas Tree Crate to hide that stand!

I hope you have an amazing week with your friends or family!

I see beautiful photos of trees all the time...

and I swoon and dream just a bit.

One day the tree will be all mine to adorn with glittering perfection,

and to stand tall in a graceful urn, but right now,

the tree belongs to my kids.

That is how I remember it growing up.

With the exception of my Dad putting on the lights

and a few precious ornaments my Mom had,

my brother and I were allowed to decorate the tree

and it is one of my fondest memories.
