Our artful tree

 For the background I hammered a row of nails along the top of the fireplace and then along the bottom as well. I used 350 mini-lights and I wrapped them up and around each of the nails - first the top, then the bottom, then the top, etc... then I put up the tree (fake) and used hot pink and orange crepe paper to go around the branches. I filled in with ball ornaments and then all kinds of other ornaments that I made. I looked around my knick knacks and turned unused objects into ornaments - like the coasters I bought in Mexico last spring and artist trading cards I made!

 The kids too this picture, it's a wide shot. I think the Kardashians must like it too, they are smiling!

Felicidades,
Kathy :-)
