Oh Christmas Tree

Jon's mom found a spare Christmas tree hanging around in storage so she let us take it home and decorate it. I was SOO excited to have it!! It was missing branches and kind of old but I didn't care. I LOVE Christmas trees. I made Jon take me immediately to Hobby Lobby to pick out decorations for it. Well...their stuff was very picked over and kind of pricey but I just managed to find what I could. I picked out red, black, and silver decor. It was cute! But then I went to Wal-Mart a few hours later only to find better, cheaper ornaments in colors that I loved! Who knew? Gotta love Wal-Mart! Therefore I returned EVERYTHING to Hobby Lobby and bought all new decor from Wally world. Here is how it turned out.
The colors are brown, copper, and gold just like my mom's tree. I love her tree. But of course her decorations are way better. This is just a starter tree. There are only 3 different kinds of ornaments.
I'm hoping next year to add a little bit more, but I still LOVE IT! So worth the work. I'm just glad I was able to find a spot in our tiny place for the tree. I had to rearrange a bit but it worked.
I'm totally into Christmas this year and also decided to make stockings for our little family. Starting from the left is Jon's, then mine, then Ryder's. They are just made of flannel so they are flimsy but I still think they are cute and love that they are homemade. Can't wait for Christmas!
