Sometimes it’s hard to not let ourselves get bogged down in
the Christmas hustle and bustle. Instead
we remember to keep Eden’s memory alive by doing something special like this
together- no technology, no interruptions, no noise- it feels like she’s with
us. Reagan LOVES crafts. I have no idea where she picked up this hobby because
if you’ve been reading this blog for anytime you will realize that I am
anything but crafty. But…. I am a good
researcher! I can find the cutest crafts
and usually execute with the help of my semi-crafty hubby.
Step 1: Button
shopping and sorting. Surprisingly
easy. Crafty stores sell buttons by the
jar!
Step 2: String buttons in a Christmas tree like fashion.
Step 3: Pause to go get your pink broom and dustpan, proceed to throw buttons on the floor so you can clean. Yes, this is Reagan's step. And yes she LOVES to clean. Not sure where she got that from either, as I hate to clean so much that now we have a cleaning person :-)
Step 4: Hang mini- Christmas trees on real Christmas tree. One for our sweet Eden in heaven and one for our silly, beautiful Reagan right here in our arms.
Reagan also made her own little button wreath and chose wooden spoons to display them! Our ornament fun and memories of Eden are always so beautiful. Merry Christmas to all!
