OK, as promised here is what I did with my Crate and Barrel knockoff trees.
Just ignore the reflection of the ladder. Obviouly I wasn't finished decorating when I took the picture. Come to think of it, I'm usually not finished decorating until I start taking things back down.
I had another party that involved another gift exchange. This one was much smaller, just 5 of us. I thought I was going to have time to go shopping before hand but somehow I ran out of time and had to go shopping around the house. So I lost the votive holder from my table and a necklace I had bought a couple of years ago and never given away.
I ended up with this nice wallet/clutch,
and these "unique" picture frames. I love the clutch and I'm pretty sure what I will do with the frames. Oh, and there is white elephant gift exchange this weekend. Hummmm.
Knock off trees look great.
ReplyDeleteUnique frames indeed. Especially the cowboy snowman shooting it up with a candy cane. I wonder what the Chinese workers who got to work on that item were thinking...
