Tis The Season

I am always up for a challenge but I was a bit daunted when I was told I had to decorate a 12" Christmas tree for a contest at work. Not only do I work for a rather conservative company, I was limited to using supplies we actually sell in the store. Normally I would embrace such a challenge but I knew I needed to tow the line, so to speak, and my usually bawdy humor needed to take a back seat as well. Plus, I am not big on anything "traditional" so I knew striking a balance between acceptable for work vs. what I would really like to do was going to be tricky. At any rate, I sucked it all up (I did sneak in a few elements from my own personal stash of materials) and came up with my "Spirit of Christmas" tree. Fa, la, la...........
