Christmas Cheer!

Made some Pine Boughs for decorating my mom's and my doors. They cut down trees at her apartment complex, I picked out the small pieces of Fir tree boughs, and added a nice bow and voila- Instant Christmas Cheer! This definitely counts as a Christmas memory- I have always made mom one every year. Usually out of found or foraged pine boughs or tree trimmings. Of course the boughs will be composted after Christmas

Sorry about the poor picture.
