A White Tree

P1000451

Last year I fell in love with my middle daughter’s

white Christmas tree,

so I did what any

self-respecting mother would do…

the day after Christmas when Wal-Mart’s 7 1/2 foot white tree,

that was originally $40 went down to $20,

I copied her.



I then proceeded to forget that I had bought one,

until it was un-earthed several weeks ago,

on

‘moving the Christmas decoration boxes into the house day’

with Chapa’s moving.


Please tell me you periodically forget what you bought half price the year before???

It is perfect in the Nap Room.

In fact, gold and white is made for this space.

I used a big remnant of white organza as the tree skirt.

And my well-loved ornaments from years’ past

fit in perfectly.

Beautiful! YES, I frequently forget what I bought on sale after any of the holidays. The UP side is that it makes for nice surprises when I pull out the decorations!
