chalkboard Christmas tree 2017

Here it is! This year’s chalkboard Christmas tree. You can see the previous five chalkboard trees here: Chalkboard Christmas Trees

Our theme for this year is “…not even a mouse…”

As in previous years, I googled the internet for images that would fit the theme. I searched < Christmas mice >, printed the images I liked and then edited those pictures for the final image.

The chalkboard is first divided into the sections, with a vertical line for the tree trunk and horizontal lines for the branches. Then we tape up the pictures, move them around, move them again…till we’ve decided on the design we want.

Each design is transferred to the chalkboard.

Then the chalking begins. We decided to add popcorn and cranberry strings this year.

The bottom of the tree features Clark and Winston. Clark is being entertained with Christmas carols and Winston is napping with a little mouse napping on Winston’s head.

Another year, another chalkboard Christmas tree. I wonder what next year’s theme will be?

Merry Christmas from all of us! ~~Rhonda

    Absolutely spectacular. I love the strings on the tree branches. Also isn’t Clark the one who sleeps on the bannister? If so, it is appropriate that he is on the branch. More photos from the party if possible. I love these posts.

    That looks so awesome! I always look forward to the Christmas pics of your home and the anticipation of this year’s chalk board tree was well worth the wait. I think it will be extra hard to erase that one. Looks really wonderful! I love it!

    Another year and another amazing chalk board. I think this is my favorite so far. I think the branches with the strings just took it over the top. Including the cats is just so sweet and they are in their favorite spot.

    Hope you and your family are well and have a Blessed Christmas.

    PS….could you come do one at my house? lol.
