I came across this interesting Christmas Tree today, and am wondering what you think. This Christmas tree idea belongs to Judy Hardaway at Amazing Christmas Ideas.com. She says this,

I always hang doves from the ceiling with strings of beads in their mouths as though they were flying in and decorating the tree. I use white thread to suspend the birds and pushpins to secure them to the ceiling. You can attach the beads to the birds’ beaks with hot glue or with straight pins. They can also be attached to the feet. The string of beads should be long enough to drape the end over a limb of the tree. Place the doves at different distances from the Christmas tree.

I think there is definitely some thinking out of the box here, and I would love to try something different with my tree next year. This is a little ‘Cindarella-ish’ for me, but I’m going to have to remember this… if nothing else, to inspire me to do more to the Christmas tree than just bulbs and ribbon.
