My grandson decorated our christmas tree this year

Our tree had been out but bare for several days waiting to be decorated so when our grandson came round he decorated the tree for us hes 11 years okld and did a fab job his grandad was helping him choose what to put on next and he placed them all on the tree. Then he had his dad (my son) take a photo of the tree to check I dont move anything lol I would not dream of it this year tree feels so special decorated by our grandson

I did make sure a special little ornament form my childhood had pride of place a little trumpet that still works I rember my Dad buys several from Woolworth and being so proud of them, my father and mother loved christmas so in their memory I display this trumpet evey year on the tree


I really must get on with some more tags Iam falling behind ...help

Tag Number 5

Ok I know where is 4 its coming I made 5 as a tag I could put on my christmas tree as I thought Tim Holtz tag lent itself  to being a tree decoration

Tim tag


My version of Tim tag a star for our christmas tree

Christmas Tags all present and correct...

I thought I would take some time to make my own gift tags this year ready for when we wrap the christmas presents I put them into colour codes and type to make the wrapping easier

they are very addictive to make lol
