Twenty years ago, on the day of my wedding shower, my mother-in-law gave to me an old shoebox. Inside of it were carefully wrapped ornaments that my husband had either collected or crafted as a child. These two felt ornaments are from that shoebox collection. He remembers crafting the felt tree as a boy. The bear was purchased at a store. I hang these every year on one of our many Christmas trees.
