Christmas Memories

As I was thinking about decorating for Christmas this year, I wanted to do something different on my staircase handrail. I decided to purchase fresh pine garland, add some small LED lights, and garland with red and white pearls. Usually  I hang the family stockings from the mantle on our fireplace but this year I wanted to do something different with them. A couple weeks before I started decorating I had gone into a resale shop near my house. They had a small Christmas tree with a few ornaments on it but they had also had added old family photos. It gave me a great idea! I came home and started digging through photo albums. I decided to choose a picture of my kids, grandkids, husband and myself from when we were young. I used small wooden clothespins that you can find at the craft store to attach them to the garland.
