Do you find it hard to select "the perfect" gift for your parents or grandparents or even great grandparents (GGs)?
Well, we did too!
After mailing out all of our Christmas Cards, the GGs, indicated how much they loved it and are displaying it for their neighbours to enjoy too.
An idea "POPPED" into my head, of a nixed idea for this year's Christmas Card.
Recognized this pop-up Christmas Tree? Well, mass producing it was nixed, but creating a large one for the GGs, would be perfect!
In lieu of the regular Christmas ornaments, I replaced it with photos of each member of the family. All 4 generations of us, in ornament form. Now they will have all of us around for the holidays, when we can't all be there at once. There's a lot of us now!
Turned out really well. I printed everyone on vellum paper so it would "pop" when a light is shining through.
I also found at the dollar store, these cute mini snowflake LED lights (battery operated). Perfect for the little tree.
Looks great lite up don't you think?
The best things about this Christmas tree is that it collapse flat, perfect for mailing and storing for future use.
The ornaments can be updated and added to as the kids grow and as the family expands more.
