Absolutely love these pompom balls JNCT! Anything unbreakable is cool in my book. Even tho the pets are older and the kids with their own families, I still like things that don't break easily. I currently don't have a tree but I do have a huge picture window that can use some ornaments.
The first year we moved to San Diego when the kids were very little I made a small quilt that looked like a fireplace so we would have a place to hang our Christmas stockings. We used that for years!
Another year we had moved again and all the ornaments were in storage. Instead of spending a lot of money on decorations we bought a tabletop tree and used red ribbon to decorate it. My kids learned that the best part of Christmas was spending time with family and friends.
