oh christmas tree

Can you believe it is December already?  Only 3 weekends until Christmas!  Even though I'm a bit reluctant for the miserable winter that has been forecasted, Christmas is my favorite holiday.  When we were younger we would bring canned food to Dr. Tom, our dentist, in exchange for a tree seedling.  Every year my Dad would plant the seedling along the fence on the side of our house.  Eventually they lined the entire property and grew to be huge.  My Sister and I had a lot of cavities ;)

If you're a winter Bride and looking for a great gift for your guests, how about tree seedlings?  I like how they are displayed in the champagne flutes below.  Just make sure your guests don't take home the glasses too!




Check out Porky Farm for fir seedlings 100 for $100!

If you're also an activist... you could always request canned food in lieu of gifts.  Just an idea ;)
