A couple of years ago our son was out-of-state for Christmas, so we acquired a small, portable silver tabletop tree to carry with us for our visit with him. It was perfect, even unadorned!
This year I pulled out and decided to make it special by displaying it on the desk in my newly-renovated (it used to be a computer/workout room) yet-to-be-named art-music-poetry studio. Soon it came to me:
make a WORD tree!
First, I used miniature cookie cutters and wrote in each a word from my One Little Word collection. ("Wild" for 2015 was my 8th OLW!)
Here are a few:
2015 OLW
2012 OLW
2010 OLW
Then I added some favorite fortunes saved from fortune cookies (anyone else collect these? I have a stash of my favorites) -- and a message or two from Dove dark chocolate wrappers. (Yes, I also collect these. I'm a word-hoarder, apparently! :)
... and that's as far as I've gotten! I hope to add more as it comes to me, and over the years. Fun!
