On this 6th (or 7th) day of Christmas I’m celebrating homemade Christmas tree ornaments. Our tree is full of ornaments from my childhood, my husband’s childhood, gifts to the kids from our extended family, things collected over the 20 years of our marriage, and the artistic efforts of the kids. I love it. Having it in our living room takes up a lot of space, but it’s a cozy wonderful trip down memory lane.
