A Christmas Tour

This year we kept things pretty simple with our Christmas decor.  I used things we already had or made things like our stockings from materials we already had on hand.  

I went with a silver and gold theme for the tree this year.  If you look closely there are less ornaments at the bottom of the tree, hmm...wonder how that happened?  I did put non breakable ornaments on the bottom half of the tree in case little fingers decided to grab them, which as you can see they did.

For my wrapping this year I decided to keep it simple with some fun leopard print paper from Hobby Lobby found in the Christmas wrapping section.  The ones with the pink bows are for my daughter.  I'm pretty sure those sparkly things will be her favorite part of the whole morning.

Every year we add a new ornament to the tree.  I loved this Lenox ornament when I saw it.  I love that it's a manger scene and that it symbolizes the true meaning of Christmas.  I was also pretty happy that it was on sale for $4.50 at Ross.  It normally retails for around $30 so it was a great deal.

I'm linking up to the nester's tour of homes.
