I am one of those people.

Ya know the ones who puts christmas up before thanksgiving.

.

Annie's thoughts on that:

Thanksgiving and Christmas are one.

its the "'holidays"

where we feel the spirit of the true meaning of Christmas through November and December.

i hate that there has to be rules on this matter.

who care if you put it up before thanksgiving. It doesn't mean your Skipping Thanksgiving.

its ALL ONE!

a time to reflect on

Family.

Giving.

The Im thankful's

and the BIG man above. :)

.

amen.

now, THAT being said..............

I had a dream.

a very vivid dream.....of me decorating my tree.

and using NOTHING store bought.

.

.

So,

I made my dream come true.

I woke up and wrote down all that I could remember....

so here is my tree. :)

{one day it will be large}

I printed off Old sheet music i found online.

ripped the sides and rolled them.

.

I created these birds and old record player with notes in my photoshop

and printed them, ripped them and glued them into harder cardboard.

Then sewed black lace ruffels on them....

.

I made black silk Ruffle garland.

I made Burlap mini flag garland.

I made 1, 2, 3, 4, ornaments {4 kids member}

and a mini "West" banner.

and little tulle balls here and there.

.

.

The end!

its needs more stuff.........i will see what tonights dreams are.. :)

Finally,

Totally 80's.

I love the 80's...............remember the sweatshirts worn inside out? and BIG....lol
