First Christmas Ornament

I thought this was a neat way to celebrate one's first Christmas together!  You saw off a sliver of wood from the bottom of the tree and decorate it however you like.  Cute!!

Christmas Mantel

Thought I would share a pic of my fireplace mantel in the new dinning room decorated for Christmas.

The dried hydrangeas for the wreath are from my yard.  I secured them on a craft wreath then sprayed glue all over the flowers.  I then sprinkled glitter all over the wreath. (OUTSIDE of course!)  I plan to insert battery powered mini Christmas lights in the wreath but haven't done so yet.  I have a nail at the top of the mirror frame just over the edge to the back to hang the wreath ribbon on.  Merry Christmas!
