Tiny Little Christmas Treat, a Tree!

                          (The little tree has a white thread on it in the photo).

Who ever would have thought a love for all things Christmas would surface in a hardware store?

 Well, it did!

A darling little Christmas tree, about four inches tall, caught my attention.

A switch on the bottom of it turned on flashing colored lights. 

 It looked so enchanting.

 The fact that the tree was so little made it even more appealing than the tree's big "cousins."

 The price happened to be a tad on the expensive side ($8 and change) but my shopping muse whispered in my ear that it should be purchased as a treat.

 The pint-sized tree was adorable in the hardware store as well as in my home. 

It has made me smile when viewed on the downstairs bathroom counter so it was worth every penny.

HAVE YOU EVER HAD A BIG VERSION OF A CERAMIC TREE? THEY ARE VERY POPULAR AGAIN.
