Deco Mesh Christmas Trees

This year I wanted to do a little more with the "little space" we have in our home. Last year I wrapped a tomato cage with Christmas lights. This year I took it up a notch by first wrapping the tomato cages with white LED Christmas lights and then wrapping them with Deco Mesh! These are very cheap and beautiful little trees! If you want to make them you can run by your local hardware store to get medium tomato cages and then stop by Hobby Lobby to get the deco mesh. I happened to find mine on sale for 50% off, so for two large rolls of the mesh I paid a little over $10. You can do all sorts of awesome fun with the deco mesh...they come in an assortment of colors (I saw red, purple, green, white, pink, silver...oh and lime green!)

I had a blast making them and I looooove the dreamy light they create at night...

..."I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas"...
 
Merry Christmas!


Note: If you decide to make these...make sure to have a partner to help! I couldn't have done these without my husband!!   :)

Happy {belated} Father's Day Daddy

Hey Daddy! :)
I know I wished you Happy Father's Day on Sunday...
but I wanted to do more.

Today I thought about you while
walking across the A&M campus...
later I thought about your
anniversary with mom...
I thought about your parents...
and mom's parents...

I was reminded...
That you put four years of hard work in on the
same campus I have walked the last two years...
That you still love mom just as much if not more
than you did the day you two were married...
and that ya'll both had great parents...just like me.
I have wonderful parents.

Dad you are a fantastic father!!
I love you and I just want to say thank you...
for all you do for our family, you are amazing!!

I love your smiles!

Not only are you a daddy...but you're now Pop's too!!

...and a great Pop's at that!

Our family...we would not be where we are now without you Dad - Thank you!
