the little tree.

some more additions... and i keep hearing about others that i need to track down! yesterday i got two in the mail from gus & otto!

and otto also sent along this set of christmas loops, which i love...


last night i was up in NE for dinner, and also picked up an ornament from cormac... i told him he could either make me a "cornament" or an "ornamac".

he made me an ornamac. and then of course, there's a couple that i have fashioned as well... i make the wire stars every year... i did it for years at camp, and then each year with my kids at brooklyn preschool. the last 3 years i have also done them at our church advent craft day. and i never tire of them. they are simple and fun. and wire goes a LONG way.



i'm still waiting for ornaments from acacia, isaac, lily & isabelle... i'll have to get them when i return from the midwest!

my little tree is happier than it's ever been....

1 woo hoo's!:

The boys just got so excited seeing their ornaments in your blog. Gus' is the first one and Otto's is the second. (you can see Otto's name on the trunk.) What a cute little tree it is! Have fun in the midwest!
