The most festive thing we've probably ever done...

We are not huge fans of Christmas. It's so materialized and stressful. We knew we weren't going to waste our time getting a tree because we are going to Utah for Christmas, plus it's such a hassle. But I had a flash of inspiration while at our favorite thrift store today and said to Kory, "I have an idea, I am being serious so don't laugh." Then I tried to explain my vision of a lampshade Christmas tree. To my surprise Kor was totally down for my project and even picked out the lamp shades. They were about a dollar each! Score. We handmade the satin flowers, that's right WE. What a sport Kory is. I love you baby. Oh, did I mention we had yet another snow day?!

Before the madness.

We love our little, lampshade tree. It suits us.
