We picked up some "paint your own" Christmas decorations from the craft store, a super easy fun little craft project for the season. Anyone who loves coloring books would enjoy these. I treasure some that my aunt painted in the 1970s. There are fewer choices these days, and forget the little markers included in the packaging. But if you've already got your own paint, this is a fun way to pass an evening. Christmas music, Dad making lasagna in the kitchen, and all was right for the night.

 My girl painted one of her Christmas trees ombre pink to red. It may be my favorite.

 

But I love the detail in both of them. I did the reindeer.
