Decorate your tree with photos of Christmas past! Use white lights as a base and add sparkle. Use photo paper or textured paper to print pictures. If they are really old photographs, you can take them to a local store to be scanned in if you don't have that capability yourself. Once printed use twine or colored ribbon to hang on your tree. You could also save your heirloom ornaments for this tree. A unique tree full of meaning, and one that everyone will enjoy gazing at!

Washi Tape Card Tree
A tree and a fun place to hang Christmas cards as they come in! Simply find a blank wall and make a pattern of a Christmas tree using washi tape (a paper tape that's easy to use and can be found in any craft store for $5 & up). Start by placing the tape on the wall, then add tacks and alternate string/tinsel on each layer. I also made little ornaments by putting washi tape on paper and cutting them out in circles. Lastly, add a simple clip to each layer and wait for the cards to arrive in the mail!
