This year, in many of the homes, one of the recurring comments before we started was how much they wanted a beautiful tree.  Many did not think that that could create the look they wanted with the tree that they had.  Without a doubt, everyone was so surprised how much they could love the tree they already owned by cutting a beautiful garland and adding its branches to their “Charlie Brown” Christmas tree.

It was fun to see the excitement in their eyes when they saw what we had created out of that old tree.  New life–and isn’t that what Christmas is really all about?

And then with the rest of the beautiful garlands that we sell we made beautiful centerpieces as well as decorated the chandeliers.  It was fun to see each home come alive with our clients personalities.  Our clients seem to become our friends as we develop a love for each of them while trying to make their holidays bright.

Next Monday I plan on sending a new blog about the Christmas tree I decorated for my own home.  It was fun and I can’t wait to share it with you. I have enjoyed it so much in the last 24 hours. (I decorated it on December 15, which is right on schedule for my home.  More than likely, I will keep it up until Valentine’s day.)  I can’t wait for my grandkids to see it.  The angel at the top is taller than most of my grandchildren.  Have a wonderful week as you wrap up all of your Christmas shopping, parties, and festivities.

We are so grateful to all of you!
