Family Tree

My grandparents' Christmas gift from Jason and I.

Inspired by a family tree I found on Pinterest/ Etsy, I decided to make my grandparents a family tree for Christmas.  I would have ordered the family tree from the artist on Etsy, but I think she was so inundated with orders after being featured on Pinterest that she had to remove her listings.

So since I couldn't order the Etsy tree, I headed to good 'ole Hobby Lobby yesterday to buy supplies.  All I needed was a few sheets of scrapbook paper and a nice frame. 

While strolling through Hobby Lobby, I totally overheard some girls say, "This is a Pinterest paradise."  It's so funny that crafting is cool these days.

Anyways, it was a pretty easy project.  My grandparents make the trunk, with their anniversary date in the center.  Their kids make the large leaves and the grandkids make the small leaves.  And, of course, little Luke has a leaf.

I think it came out pretty cute.  Now Jason wants me to make some for our house.  Maybe we'll make a little forest of family trees for our walls.  :)
