Christmas Already?

 This year I am doing a mini tree for the Festival of Trees. I still haven't decided on a theme for the tree. I know, you're probably thinking, as I was, "It's September, I have plenty of time." But that is kind of wrong. I have to register by the end of the month, and they want to know specifics about what I'm planning to do.

I have been rolling a couple of ideas around in my head. One is a Twilight inspired tree. The newest film comes out a week before the Festival opens so the timing is great and it might fetch a slightly higher price.  On the other hand I saw these rusty decoupaged stars last year that were adorable, and they are pretty easy to re-create (see pictures). Then there is always my classic stand by, my favorite thing to do for Christmas, a Let it Snow themed tree in the classic blue and white.

I really think the stars are adorable and love that it gives it a slightly more homemade feel. It was actually the stars that made me think this would be the year I do a tree for FOT. But the timing for the Twilight tree couldn't be better and would be great for the cause if the bidding kind of went off the hook.

Anyway I have a poll going on my facebook page or you can comment here on which tree theme you think would be the best to do.
