It's a first...

A first post for the PDE Linky Party at least!!  Not long ago I was perusing my favorite blogs when I noticed that PDE Linky Party was looking for some new design team members so I applied and they accepted me...fun!

What's super fun about the PDE Linky Party is that it is always Anything Goes!!  I mean you are creating anyway so you might as well link it up so we can ALL enjoy what you are creating!  This week I'm sharing a project my hubby and I made for our grandson.  It is a felt wall Christamas tree with felt ornaments!!  Now, he is only about 18 months old (will be on Dec 6th at least) and he hasn't shown much interest in it yet but I know over the next several years he'll think it is really neat to have his own tree!!

My hubby cut the tree out of the green felt and the trunk out of brown felt and I made the presents, star, and ornaments.  I made some with die and some with templates (just printed them from google) then I glued some of the pieces together with hot glue and wahlah...a cute felt tree just for William!  In future years I hope to have him help make some additional ornaments for the tree, too!

So, there you have it!!  What are you working on?  Do I get to see?  Make sure to go link up at the PDE Linky Party!

UPDATE:  My grandson played with the ornaments and tree last night!  Sorry for the blurry photo he is a whirlwind of motion!

Love your updated photo of him playing with the tree. This is a great idea and something he'll always look forward to every year at Grandma's house. :)
