Hi Folks  just thought I would share a picie of some of my hand made tree decs, This tree is in my dinning room and I usually put some of my own made decs on it, this year I have I decorated it with all my own (and some of the kids) hany work.  you may have to enlarge it to see closer, the small medalians are ceramic, made from eathenwear clay and a borrowed petit fore cutter, The stars and snow flakes are hama beads, (cant take all the credit for those, small children do com in handy somtimes  The little stockings were made with some felt and blanket stiched around the edge and then decorated and stuffed, and the little "fairy bags" were easy peasy to make, just a bit of organza ribbon and sewn up with beads added. All in all I am very pleased with my "credit crunch" tree.  magz    |

It looks lovely, just goes to show you don't need pricey baubles. I looked at some of the decorations we have made over the years and although I haven't used them for ages I keep them as it brings back memories of when the children were young! For people who don't have clay you can make salt dough or gingerbread biscuits and eat them too! |

Absolutely lovely Mags We still have a few items that the kids made for trees, but sadly most have gone now  I still think they are far more precious than bought decorations  Steve  |
