Real Tree Decorations

If you saw what my tree originally looked like, you'll know this is an improvement
The kids decorated it last night with real ornaments, all by themselves.  They wanted them all front and center... so me trying to explain hanging some of them deeper in the tree was like talking to a wall...

I was also proud of myself for going through the ornaments and purging ones that had no sentimental value since we have way more than we need to cover the tree.  Every year we acquire new ones from trips as souvenirs, an annual family ornament and something with each child's name and the year on it, those are the ones I want to keep.  Out went the ones that I bought from the dollar store years ago just to fill in space.

Now, I just need to do some cleaning up in other areas of my home (ahem... craft area) so I'm not writing posts like this in a few weeks when I once again declare keeping an organized home as a New Years Resolution.

I am sharing my holiday home decor and cleaning tips for the chance to win prizes from The SITS Girls and Great Cleaners.


Peace be with you,
