OH, CHRISTMAS TREE....

We had a really big snow storm the last week of November that was really hard on the trees in our neighborhood. We came home to find the top of our weeping birch laying in the front yard. Sad.... tree down. It was sad to think that this beautiful tree was going to go to waste... there must be something cool to do with it, right?  I let it sit there for a few days waiting for the snow to melt, and thinking, before I hauled it away.  While it was laying there the inspiration struck!

Here is the result of the inspiration.... a magical, not so traditional Christmas tree! A weeping birch that is dripping with crystals and sparkles and glass. Things and stuff like you might find in a winter-wonder land!





 Just because it is not an evergreen doesn't mean it shouldn't have a star on the top... or at least hanging near the top!







 Lanterns help you find your way in the snow... and the candles make the crystals sparkle!



Oh, Christmas Tree......

HAPPY HOLIDAY'S!!!
