Today, I wanted to give you a closer look and show you how I created a beautiful, memory-filled Christmas tree.
Our angel tree topper, a family tradition, is surrounded by small dried hydrangea blooms and sprigs of gold berries
My favorite addition to the tree this year is the chalkboard banner. See tutorial here. It’s a visual reminder of the true meaning for the holiday. Our Savior brought the greatest joy into our world, the promise of eternal life with Him and Our Father, a promise that is for each and every one of us in the world.
I hope you have been inspired by our tree. I think it’s proof that a tree doesn’t have to be a perfectly themed creation to be beautiful. Personal touches and collected ornaments create a Christmas tree filled with heart and special memories. Combining the memories with repeated elements tie the whole thing up like a pretty little package.
Each year we decorate the tree together as a family. There are always lots of “oohs” and “ahhs” as we unpack the ornaments. Treasured memories renewed year after year.
