Description

Bah Humbug Crabby Sad Christmas Tree, by Conni Schaftenaar.

A friend asked me to help her make a hat to wear with an "ugly" Christmas sweater for a family party. I created this sad and crabby Christmas tree, complete with wilting limbs and needles, a fractured star and a cracked ornament, and printed it out on two sheets of card stock, glued them together over a wood shishkabob stick, and stuck the stick into a styrofoam hat decorated with the cheesiest, ugliest-colored Christmas decorations I could find. Her family got a good laugh, but I like my crabby little tree as a humorous Christmas card (or mug, or a shopping tote!) as a gift for those folks we all know who hate Christmas. Hope you enjoy it!
