Tinsel

Our first Christmas together there was some serious debate about placing tinsel on the tree. I love it, my dear husband does not. I love the sparkle against the lights, he views it as not ecologically sound and unnecessary.
So we struck a deal, I was allowed to buy one package of tinsel and when it is gone, it's gone. So every year I carefully pull each an every strand of tinsel of our tree and store it in a baggie. I have even enlisted my two year old to help me in my craziness, although he quickly loses interest after two strands. I am proud to say that after 8 Christmases together, I just pulled an almost-full baggie off my tree before it headed out the door.
