This little guy was my first tree topper in that awkward independent phase in life of not kid and not adult. I had my own place to live so naturally I bought my own tree but that took all the budget so I had no ornaments. My sweet friend

's mom and auntie Black Friday shopped me my first box of ornaments (is that a verb?) and I picked out this cute little santa star. I think my mom gifted me my childhood ornaments that year or a year soon after so that my fake tree wasn’t barren for long. Talk about economical - this tree is now 25 years old. If you need your own way to ‘Deck the Halls’ without breaking the bank, try stringing together dried orange slices, cranberries & popcorn for a colorful and festive garland! Go green and save money by opting for a classic home-made holiday style.
What is the story of your tree topper (or other special decorations if you celebrate another holiday).
