About 9 or 10+ years ago in our 1st house, the first time we got a Christmas Tree we realized our handful of ornaments wasn't going to cut it.  We ended up having a 'deck the tree' party (or something like that).  I bought all of the 'crafts' - and our friends used their creative ways and came up with great ways to decorate the tree!  every year since when hanging the ornaments it gives me great laughs and memories of these special ornaments.  I've included a few...  and we still use the same snowman I made during that same time for our topper!  It's a lot of fun and amazing what you or friends come up with.
