Star of Light

For years, I have wanted to create a tree for the Festival of Trees.
It's one of my favorite events during Christmas.

I wanted to do a small tree with a few highlights centered around the birth of Christ.
Jen came up with the idea to do blue and silver.

The tree was for those who have lost a baby.

It's definitely one of the more simple trees at the festival
and I love the way it turned out.

Here's a few highlights.

My sweet niece Madi, was great to hold still so I could have a glitter hand print.

I love this star featuring the wise men.

The hope angel. Have you read the Christmas Box?
I had a large nativity with my tree as well. I love the sparkles that look like snowflakes.
The look of Joseph is also amazing as to me, it looks like that he really loves Mary.
Last but not least, word ornaments.
Of course I had to have joy somewhere.
And I love peace. There is peace at Christmas.

It was such a fun project to ring in the season!

The best part?
My tree sold!
What a wonderful fundraiser for Primary Children's Hospital.

Festival of Trees will be going on through the weekend!
Make sure to stop by.
