I think I am in the minority when it comes to my love of an eclectic Christmas tree. I really enjoy when I see a mish-mash of different ornaments. I can remember making ornaments for my mom, and some of them are STILL hung on her tree each year.

For our Christmas tree, as we decorate every year I take great pleasure in remembering who gave me the ornament and why, or the reason I purchased it. I also love seeing the kids ornaments they made when they were little as well. It's kind of like a walk down memory lane.

Here is a cute idea for an ornament to make with the kids!
