We only hung unbreakable ones on the bottom branches. My mother used to hang the tree from the ceiling when she had dogs. That was fun.<br />Happy New Year to you too!

As I was putting away some of my ornaments today with all the bubble wrap and padded boxes inside other boxes, I was thinking that it was the memories that I was protecting, not just the glass.

I saved a few special ornies to decorate with but gave the rest to my daughters a number of years ago. I try to make them each an ornament every year now to add to their collection.<br /><br />DarlaDarlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02729017606957829830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474350601993629544.post-41606813153576862792013-01-01T09:20:16.443-08:002013-01-01T09:20:16.443-08:00Beautiful ornament.

Mom collected at least one ornament a year and put dates on, starting in 1945, her and Daddy's first Christmas together. I still have 3-4 of those 1945 ornaments. She used to say she thought them very ugly back when she got them, but there wasn't anything else on offer. We used to shop the Christmas sales for special ornaments and I'm pleased to say her last Christmas with us we found some of the most beautiful ones. I'm not sure which ones I cherish more. I probably take better care of my Christmas ornaments than I do of my clothes, my car (when I had one) or my body...Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239488936038510294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474350601993629544.post-59764760634313673002012-12-31T23:20:04.998-08:002012-12-31T23:20:04.998-08:00I love antique tree ornaments, and this is so pret...I love antique tree ornaments, and this is so pretty.
