New Year's Tree



One of my favorite posts was my New Year's Tree from last year.
Since I have my new camera I wanted to take some new pics of it
setting in my foyer.

Instead of reposting it and just changing out the photos
I'm inviting you to click here to take a moment to experience my thoughts on
The Gift of Time.





 















My life has changed in this last 18 months of blogging;
thank you for your dear friendships and fellowship.
Sending Blessings and God's Love for 2011!
Debra

    Oh Debra I love it! As I am putting away my Christmas decorations I know I love the uncluttered feeling it brings, but it also brings a let down. I miss the color, the lights and all of the greenery. For some reason I decided to keep out my doves from the dinning room tree. Now I know what I am going to do with them, thank you for your inspiration!

    i really love this idea. i have a tree like that but i never thought of using clock faces....i don't have any of those but i could do the bird and snowflake thing!!!!

    i always hate to take the christmas decor down, this is a good way to keep some of the decor up, just change to snow or winter instead of christmas....

    thanks for the idea.

    hugs, cindy

    I love your idea of a New Year tree. It looks so fresh and inviting, just how I hope the new year is for me.

    I've really enjoyed getting to know you through blogging Debra and there is always a hope that we can meet in person someday.

    That is one fancy camera you've got there, Debra. Those photos are beautiful! I just plucked some branches this morning for my lavender winter tree. If this post doesn't motivate me to get crackin'...

    That tree is just as lovely as you, my sweet.

    Thank you for your friendship. So happy we met.

    Happy 2011,
    Jami

    I went back and read last years post. Thanks for those wise words.

    Your photographs are indeed much improved. It looks like you have turned off the automatic setting!
