More Crepe Paper Christmas Trees…

I shared this Christmas Tree creation with you a few days ago ~ but with a few of them, I decided to give them as gifts!  If you missed that post click here! I adorned them each a little differently according to whom they were being given to!  This one is for a dear friend of mine who shares the same love as I do for “Oh, Holy Night”

I couldn’t decide which part of the verse I should put on the tree, but went with “fall on your knees” as it’s the line that makes my own heart sing!  I hope she likes it…

The smallest tree found itself in a peat moss pot for my sons teacher! I love the simplicity of how this one turned out and the “Merry Christmas” banner seemed to fit just perfect! 

I sort of wonder if she will be thinking…”seriously? a craft from a parent”…when she probably gets so many handmade art pieces from her classroom children already! yikes, I hope she likes this!

And this one ~ is for my Aunt…she loves Christmas and I think she would certainly appreciate the time and thought that went into making this tree for her!

I know she will treasure and enjoy this tree for years to come!

What about you ~ do you love receiving a handcrafted item for Christmas, or do you prefer something more useful?  Would love to hear your thoughts…To see where else I am linking to this week – please check my “Cottage Links” label…xoxo, tracie
