If you are one of the lucky few who are great with a needle and thread, today’s decorating idea is for you. This makes a wonderful presentation of your hobby at the holidays. Don’t forget to include some of your work on the tree too!
3. The Seamstress’s Tree
If you enjoy sewing or any other craft, decorate your holiday tree for it! Depending on the type of craft you enjoy, you could decorate with thimbles, colorful yarns, spools of thread, and pincushions. Neatly rolled fat quarters of fabric are a fun touch for a quilter, just as knitting or crochet needles are perfect for someone who works with yarn. And any seamstress would also love a few tape measures wound around the tree like tinsel.

1. The Artist’s Tree
This is a really fun theme for someone who is passionate about art. If you enjoy a particular medium, such as sketching, consider decorating a tree with pencils, small sketch pads, sandpaper blocks, and other tools of the trade. You might even consider making a few small sketches that you could display on the tree, too. For someone who enjoys painting, you could decorate with paintbrushes, paint trays, and small pots of paint (well sealed, of course). The Artist’s Tree can be as fun and creative as you want it to be, and can be easily adapted to any type of art that you enjoy.
