Thankful Tree

Hey Everyone! We are so excited to have moved over to a WordPress site! It gives us a lot more options and we think you will enjoy it! Head on over to

"Gratitude turns what you have into enough"

So much of the holidays have become about "what can I get for myself? What do I deserve for being good?"

It's important for us to spend time reflecting on what we have, and see all the things that God has blessed is with.

This year, we decided to make this a very visual gratitude craft to display. Here is our gratitude tree- filled with things that our Heavenly Father has blessed us with. Hopefully this will help us turn our hearts away from the commercializations of the holidays and focus on just GIVING THANKS!

It wasn't hard to put together. We just went outside and trimmed our tree. We stuck the branches in a mason jar and tied a cute ribbon around it. Using fall color paint chip samples, we cut out circles, hole-punched the top, & hung them from the branches with twine. Here's how it turned out!



What are things that you will put on your gratitude tree? If you aren't making one, what are some ways that you have "given thanks" this time of year?
