Photo Challenge Day 3 ~ RED

This is my tree skirt.  It's not super pretty. Actually it's a wee bit ugly and rather plain but it's something my mom made out of her old bedspread a long time ago.  Growing up, I thought my parents had the most beautiful red velour bedspread.  When my mom updated their room from the sleezy velour look she couldn't simply toss out this material but had to remake it into something else.  She is Mennonite and we are the pioneers of reduce, reuse, recycle system!  So this tree skirt is nostalgic and therefore it happily will sit under my tree until I can part with it!

I love your tree skirt! And I love the story behind it.
