The Lord blessed my friend with a large crop of pecans and she shared some with me. Thanks Janice! Pecan pie ? Maybe but first I put up my final Christmas decoration.
I had bought a garland from the Habitat Restore months ago. It was about $1, maybe less. I had purchased some of those red satin balls at a yard sale. I never intended to use them on the tree :) Pretty Christmas ribbon was bought last year at a discount price. I cut off 2 sections of the green garland with some snips. I began laying some decorations I already had on top of each piece of garland. Since I had no wire to attatch them I used some black fishing line. Wrapped it around each item like I would have wire. It worked well and didnt show from the front.
Since I was going to hang this on my cabinet doors I added a long length of red ribbon to the backside of the top of the garland bundle. I wrapped the line around it also.
I brought the ribbon to the inside of the cabinet door and tied it to an upside down hook. I used the removeable kind. You could also use a nail or tape.
A quick job finished. Cost almost nothing and I have garland left over to decorate the mailbox. Maybe this is not the final decoration? Pecan pies first or maybe that yummy apple pie thing Mama used to make.
