homemade holidays #1

Anyone else remember these? Collecting the stacks of Reader's Digests from your grandparents and lugging to Girl Scouts, Sunday School, arts & crafts class?

When I saw this photo on re-nest, I was instantly transported back to 1975 and could suddenly feel those matte printed pages between my Elmer's glue-tipped fingers.

If you've never made these fun magazine Christmas trees, the easy instructions can be found here. Any magazine will do, but needless to say, I'll be off hunting for Reader's Digests this weekend, when our decorating extravaganza begins. :-)
