Fun New Christmas Ornaments!

I recently won a blog giveaway from Sheena at http://sheenacolleen.blogspot.com/ who has my dream job of being an elementary school art teacher! She has a really cute blog and I love here artwork so check her out if you have time.  She was giving away a $25 Michaels gift card and I actually won!!!! I was super surprised and very happy since I never win ANYTHING!!!! So the day I got my giftcard in the mail you know I had to make a trip to Michaels which I spend way too much time and money at by the way:)  I pondered what to get, should I make a new wreath? should I get a new tree topper? new ornaments? what???? I had no idea but these little guys won me over


They were just so cute and colorful and happy and made me smile!  I had planned on using just aqua, silver and red ornaments but alas I'm doing red and green on my main tree but I also have a table top tree that I'm going to use my aqua and silver ornaments on that I'll put in my dining room.  Short post I know but I had to share:)

  3. My kids just love a red and green tree. I've been trying to relax on my tree decor expectations and just let them decorate... It always ends up a joyful, celebratory mess! And the girls stand around saying, "Oh, Mommy, it's just sooooo beautiful!" I've been thinking of doing a small tabletop tree just for me, too! Maybe on my upstairs landing..... hmmmm.

  4. Thanks ladies, I'm going to eventually post a pic of my final tree once I get some new batteries for my camera! @Melissa, I actually did 2 trees this year, one for the kids and my husband who is a big kid and prefers colorful trees and one for me in silver and turquoise
