I sure am feeling the holiday spirit this time of year. This is the first year Dougie and I have our very own tree and and are decorating our house all Christmasy. We went out and bought our tree and garland last night. With a grand total of 8 ornaments (we have a whole collection of colorful vintage bulbs that have disappeared into my parents storage) our tree was looking a little pathetic. I decided it needed a little wrapped ribbon job inspired by a photo from my favorite magazine, Lonny. So I rumbled through my craft drawer and came out with the yellow and white stripped ribbon used on our wedding welcome baskets. Throw a vintage angel on top and I must say it looks pretty cute, not perfect, but just how a first tree should look. I’ll have to share photos with you once I get them off my camera. Happy Monday!
