* * Tis The Season * *

     No matter how you celebrate the holidays (Christmas!), I think everyone deserves to have a tree. Even if you are down on your luck or just a sarcastic being, like myself, you can make a tree out of just about anything.

     For the next 25 days I will be posting a new way to produce a tree if you can't afford a real one or even if you don't like real trees or if you are allergic, whatever the case.

     Today's pick comes from the idea for people who have kids. If you can't afford a real tree or even a fake tree, there is always a way to have a tree.

     You know your kids are creative and have a wild imagination. Have them draw one on paper and either put real decorations on it or have them draw some on. Either way, it's simple and fun and it will be priceless.  :)

     It's not what the tree is made ... it's one of those things like "it's the thought that counts" or "the meaning behind it all." The time and effort are what makes the tree incredible.

Merry Christmas!
