I have always placed a star at the top of my tree but this year I fell in love with the Angels at Michael's. I was looking them over, admiring all the different colors available when an employee came over and said, "They're on sale today". As she quickly changed the sign she added, "But just the traditional ones," and promptly grabbed all the purple angels and whisked them away to a new, pricier display!
Still $ 19.99
I was okay with that, red's my color anyway. But I lost a little Christmas spirit for the moment. I mean, it's just a color, otherwise they were exactly the same. One more trendy, one more traditional. It seemed a little greedy to me, not at all in the spirit of Christmas.
So whatever your style, whatever your color...
I hope that your heart is filled with true Christmas spirit.
Please take a moment to visit Leigh at Tales from Bloggeritaville for some great thrifty Christmas finds and also read her Dec. 8th post, "Simplifying Christmas". She knows what Christmas spirit is all about.
