as i was putting away the fall decorations yesterday, i stumbled when i came to our giving tree. this is the first year we have done one. it created a wonderful visual for us throughout the Thanksgiving season.
this is definitely a tradition we will carry on. although, it might become a more permanent addition to our decor!

I love it, Lelly. I'm thinking about doing something similar for Christmas...noting the gifts those around us (in & out of home) give in the daily dailies.
You know, your giving tree is a fabulous idea (I also really like that picture with the lamplight in the background and the close up of the glass jar/vase). I meant to do one this year, but of course didn't. Maybe I can do something like it for Christmas. Okay, I AM going to!
i love this idea. i read about the gratitude jar and want to do that next year but i do like the idea of this tree throughout thanksgiving and Christmas....
love the pic, too.
i love that wide mouthed jar.
We had so much fun putting our Christmas tree up a little early this year and using it as a Gratitude Tree.
LOVE this! I definitely will add this to our Thanksgiving traditions. Thank you for sharing. And, for making it simple enough not to overwhelm : )
It is wonderful that you take time to do things like that with your family. You continue to make good memories.
I think that is a great idea. Might have to do that next year.
Very nice idea! We have had a gratitude poster this year, made by my daughter. But I love the tree because it doubles as fun home decor, too.
That's a great idea for a November activity and I can see how it could be a year-round decor item.
I meant to do something similar in NOvember... where did November go?
How can it be applied to Christmas, I mean I KNOw how... but do you have an idea of how that I can lazily copy? :)
seriously could be a year round thing!
That's so true! We had a thaknful tree this year for the first time and we just turned it into a Christmas Tree for the kids...they loved it!
...and it's so cute, too!
I really want to do that next year!
Love, love, love the giving tree. What fun that would be to have it year round! I've got to think about this!
Oh, I like this. It looks great and it's a wonderful idea.
