Holiday-crafty

I debated about inviting people over in December to decorate cookies. After seeing this post of homemade ornaments, though,  I am thinking that would be fun and involve less monotonous cooking. (I would clearly still bake, because I like to, but just not bake a whole bunch of the same shaped cookies.)

Maybe a good compromise for CF and I to do a tree together is to not use any ornaments from either of our stashes, but to make them all! This could seriously end up being a problem because his tree is always white lights and red and/or silver ornaments. Mine is not.
As an aside, if anyone has a good way to convince another person that light colored curtains and light colored walls and light colored wood and pale flooring and white lights on a tree with no color other than red can get BORING, do let me know.

Umm, well, whose apartment is it and for how long is CF staying there? I already know this...I'm just making a point here...

Oh, don't worry. I'm not changing anything. He just has a really bad sense of matching or style in general. You should see one of the denim shirts he has?!?! (Maybe I'll take a picture in secret and post it...)

Maybe it could get "lost" in all of the moving?

I am not an expert on Christmas tree etiquette, having grown up for the most part without Christmas in my home. Maybe you could divide the tree in half and each do a side?
