a traditional tree

Here's our traditional tree . . . it's already looking a little skimpy! But there are quite a few wonderful ornaments left. One of the best items on this tree is the beaded red spire. You stick it into the tree parallel to the branches. Otherwise, you'll find our reds and greens on or around this tree:

Clip-on birds are a favorite!

If traditional style decorating is your bag--we can help fill it!

Thanks for your indulgence!
