The last few years I have belabored over wether or not we should get a Christmas tree. Then we end up getting one. This year I am skipping the belaboring and just getting the damn tree. Except we will be out of town on my birthday weekend (the time we usually go and get it) so I am a little tempted to bump the festivities up to this weekend. I'm also tempted to make a tree stand as seen on Something's Hiding in Here. Do you think, if I head in to the woods outside of San Diego that I am likely to just find a stump? Heck, I don't even know where the woods "outside of San Diego" are. (This is, um, a desert.) Anyways, have a great holiday weekend!
You go on Sunrise Highway to Pine Valley or go out to Julian to get a stump. :) Happy Early Birthday!
ReplyDeleteWhat about a fat little barrel cactus with lights? Happy Bday!!
ReplyDeleteit's gorgeous, but it seems like that would only work for a fake tree, right? (b/c nowhere to irrigate)?
ReplyDeleteif you come up to la i can easily give you a stump. i got lots!
ReplyDeleteOh those paper-chains take me back! I'll definitely get some kids to work on some of those this year.
ReplyDeleteWe're getting a tree this year too. Haven't worked out how we're going to stop a toddler pulling it down on herself, but that's another story.
Most tree lots have them if you ask. (maybe that is a England thing) good luck!
