Happy Holidays!

This is our kitty Boris lounging under last years tree. I debated getting a living Christmas tree this year. When Christmas is over I take our tree outside and cut all the limbs off of it. I  then use the limbs to cover and protect my flower beds for the winter. You put them on your bed really lightly and take them off in the spring.

It works great and you need not obtain extra materials to cover your beds. I don't feel so bad about having a  Christmas tree since I use the remainder for another purpose.
