We sliced limes, lemons, oranges, and apples and dried them in the oven to make ornaments for our Christmas tree. I started doing this with roommates in college when we didn't have any real ornaments, and I've loved it ever since. I'm excited to have a tree this year since we haven't been able to have one for several years while living in Denver.
I also tried my hand at wreath making. They are so expensive to buy in the store that I thought I could do it myself for much less. I'm mostly happy with how it turned out, especially since I have never done it before. There are a couple of things I would have done a little differently, but everything is glued on and there to stay.
On Friday we will go up to the mountains with my family to pick out our Christmas tree and start decorating!

Very cool wreath. I'm impressed....it's looks like one you would buy in the store, so good job.
Fun idea on the ornaments! You did a great job on the wreath. Are you taking orders?...I'll take two!! :)
Nice work! Cool idea for the ornaments. Happy Thanksgiving!!
You're so creative! I wish I would think of cute ideas like those ornaments. And your wreath turned out beautifully! Have fun finally decorating a tree! =)
I love the dried fruit idea. I don't know if mine would be that cute if I tried it. I love the wreath. I think I am going to try to make one this year too. You have inspired me!
I'm so glad that everything is fine with your baby. Keep up your positive attitude, I agree with you try not to worry unless there is a reason.
I love your ornaments and wreath. I'm going to have to copy the ornament idea.
