Now that you have your beautiful ornaments, you need somewhere to hang them. Here are a few suggestions:

• Purchase a small Christmas tree specifically for your “family tree.” Adorn the tree with white lights and petite red bulbs.
• For smaller families, a Christmas wreath makes a perfect “branch.”

• Find a sturdy evergreen branch outside and support it in a glass vase with holiday colored gems and other festive fillers.
• Buy a shadow box frame and arrange the tiles into the shape of a tree. You can also add small holiday fillers to accent the photos.

Family History Lesson
Family tree ornaments are special because they are pictures of your family. But the ornaments can also be a way to keep the spirit of your family alive, especially if you have family far away.

It can be hard for kids to remember distant relatives they don’t often see. Family tree ornaments help kids put a face with the family member. You can even mix up the ornaments on the tree and see if your kids can place everyone in the correct family.
