It takes creativity though but I think Kids also enjoy it.williamhttp://www.corepoweryogareviews.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-67178605582326034242012-11-20T03:01:24.645-04:002012-11-20T03:01:24.645-04:00Stringing cranberries and popcorn into garlandsthe...Stringing cranberries and popcorn into garlandsthe was my favorite as a kid :)EcoGrrlhttp://www.ecogrrl.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-76492717414624378332012-11-19T17:24:44.599-04:002012-11-19T17:24:44.599-04:00Last year we bought a 3 foot tall potted Christmas...Last year we bought a 3 foot tall potted Christmas tree. It stayed in the house for 2 weeks and then we put it in a pre-dug hole in the garden after Christmas. It survived the winter and added at least 6 inches over the spring and summer. I love that not only did a real tree have to die, but that we helped contribute to offsetting the impact of other people's trees. We'll probably do it again this year too :)Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08539907382084119503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-20795913021967580572012-11-19T08:45:52.844-04:002012-11-19T08:45:52.844-04:00Fantastic blog post!!!

I've been cruising a local buy and sell site and it seems like a lot of people are cleaning out their old decorations for new ones . I also plant indoor bulbs for decorations like paperwhite bulbs and I have one Amaryllis. The Amaryllis will be kept alive all next year and then brought out to bloom again and the paperwhites will be composted. I've seen both potted bulbs at the Halifax Farmer's market.

Where can we buy cloves in Halifax? <br /><br />This year I'm making an advent calendar out of materials I had already laying around the house. Don't tell Matt, but I bought some items (yes they were new, yes they were from the dollar store) as part of the calendar that we can make together as a family into ornaments for our tree which we can re-use year after year. Plus, I think it makes a really great tradition for our family. If it works, I can make a more permanent eco-friendly version for next year. Maybe it will be blog worthy for you! heheStephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04904677562461690291noreply@blogger.com
