The "Skeleton" Tree

While I was Party Hopping in Blogland yesterday, I came across a unique tree that caught my eye at Shabby French Cottage. I left a comment and Mikey emailed me, saying he found the tree, on sale, at Kohl's. I scurried there right away and copied his idea of hanging old keys on the branches.
GET IT? A "SKELETON (key) " TREE!
I can imagine keeping this tree out all year and decorating it each season!
Just the perfect piece to compliment the handmade tree on the wall:
My favorite thing about blogging, and meeting new people, is that everyone is so willing to share their ideas! Stop by and see the other wonderful decorations at Shabby French Cottage and tell him I sent you!

    Hi Patti! I just love that tree!!! What a great idea, and so kind of Mikey to clue you in on where to find one. I have a tree similar that I may have to make a "skeleton" tree out of next year.

    Actually, just taking a second look up there, I think it's the same tree!!!
