I realized as I was taking pics of my Willow Trees, that I haven't dusted them in quite awhile. I will get on that this weekend for sure. *Slightly embarrassed*
I started this collection about 7 years ago. My mom gave me my first Willow Tree when I was pregnant with Hayden and it has become a tradition ever since. Almost every holiday she would send me another one. Each one has a special meaning and I love that.
I have seen a lot of cute collections and can't wait to see more!! When the challenge is over I'll be making a super cute post with pics from every-one's collections. So, don't forget to leave me links!!

The willow tree figurines are so pretty. I think my mom has one. I started the challenge today! :)

ReplyDeleteThis collection is very pretty. I have seen these figurines, but didn't know what they were called. So I was a little confused, expecting trees. *hee hee* How nice of your mother to set a new tradition. <3

ReplyDeleteHope you are doing well!!
my mum has a few of these! I didnt know they were international!! Theres a wee shop down the road that sells angels and has a bajillion of them. I think theyre gorgeous. They can be so beautiful at christmas on a white mantle!! You should write a list of all the willow tree angels you have! Just incase someone wanted to suprise you at christmas :p
