Christmas Decor from Mother Nature

I am working on some additions to my holiday decor this year... special little somethings that you won't find in a store made out of these beauties:


I'll give you a minute to catch your breath.

Gorgeous, right?!

These are burr oak acorns - I have a neighbor down the street with a gigantic burr oak tree and I stalk it every winter, waiting for these to fall and rushing to pick them up before someone drives over them.  I have been known to pick these up during a run and run a mile or two with it in my hand... crazy?  Maybe just a little... 

With acorn or without, these are fabulous and I am completely smitten.

Can't wait to show you what I'm doing with them... stay tuned!
