Christmas Decoration

When my first grand daughter was born I decided to give her a tree decoration for every year of her life up until she was 18 because I then reckoned she would have a goodly number to start off her own tree when she had one.

I now have a new grand daughter and have bought her a "Baby's first Christmas", just like the first grandchild.  From next year I shall continue what has now come a tradition and will need two decorations each year.

Last year I cross-stitched a little tree decoration and this year decided to do another one.



I have entered this in the following challenges:

Craft Your Days Away:  Snowmen

  10. I've done the same since my grandsons were born, too, except I can't stitch & wouldn't be able to make anything quite so beautiful. I'm sure your girls will love them & look forward to getting a new tree decoration every year :o)
