Plant Your Christmas Ornaments
If you are reading this, I'm guessing you already either use a fake Christmas tree or recycle your real one when you're done. But how do you decorate it? I was reading my favorite magazine when I found this tip. For $4 each you can decorate your Christmas tree with eco-friendly ornaments that you plant when the holidays are over. Handmade Seed Paper Holiday Ornaments come in five varities. They are made from biodegradable materials that dissolve when planted and the seeds turn into a wildflower, thyme, winter pine tree, winter sage, or delpinium. These can be found at The Spoon Sisters Web site; a shopping site for everyone. They suggest using the ornaments for decorating your own tree, as stocking stuffers, or handing them out as party favors. ![]() There are many options for decorating
