Thankful Tree

Thanksgiving is probably my absolute favorite holiday.
I love the story of the Pilgrims and the first Thanksgiving,
and I love to count my blessings.
When you stop a moment to do that, you realize how much you 
truly have.  
So, I decided to make a thankful tree for my family to contribute to every day::


I collected some twigs and stuck them in a mason jar.
I added some ribbon I already had and used my cricut to cut out circles from fallish paper then  hung them from the branches...


By Thanksgiving we should have a tree full of blessings!


{This idea was adapted from my pinterest board}
See the original that I pinned  from here.




Come see some of my photography over at Serendipity-Images.

  5. OH..how cute, I know Emily Rose from years ago, hers is very cute but I like yours a little more...your tree just seems more warm feeling, maybe it's the ribbons.
