So... what started as something just to make us laugh ended up on HGTV.com of all things.

This is the Whoville junk tree we had last year. Rather than cut the 'too long' branch on the top, my son suggested we droop it. It's done with a wire coat hanger. [Big Grin]

It's getting harder and harder to keep a straight face in our home these days. [Smile]

Oh... Merry Christmas!

I was trying to think of something complimentary to say to add to the positive comments . . . but I think when HGTV contacts you about something you've done creatively then what more could I add to the discussion??

One suggestion . . . explore this side of you with BIG dreams, Donna - and direct your energies toward promoting the 'conservational/recyclable' aspect of your seriously clever business name - and creative way to express your designs and theology about decorating. The time is ripe for something like this - low cost with great design.

As Glenn suggested, you might have a tiger by the tail here, Donna. It's only limited by your own doubts.

Quiet admiration from afar . . . very cool and great potential . . . just don't let Sawatzk'eh take any credit . . . [Wink]
