The Glory in Glitter

Mom and Dad gave us girls boxes of Christmas stuff they did not want/need anymore. Among the treasures were tons and tons of large, colored Christmas bulbs. Jules took some for her house while Shell and I got a twinkle in our eyes when we remembered the glittered bulb I idea we saw on pinterest....

So we glittered.....

and glittered....

 and seriously filled with glee. It is amazing what something so sparkly can do to a girl! We LOVE them! I even added some chunky glitter to the cinnamon ornaments we made this year and hung them deep in the tree.  It turned out beautiful!

**Another idea implemented this year was a no-sew tree skirt. Love it. Now I need a bigger tree...

And these little beuts of bulbs adorned teacher presents for my boys. Carter took 2 to school for his teacher and aid....and Drew....he came in at a total of 16-18 gifts for all the teachers, aids, therapists, bus drivers, and nurses that have invested in the happiness and education of our little man!
