Opera House Christmas Tree

This year's theme is: "Gifts of the Season".  The Committee members made large snowflake ornaments from twigs, wreaths from pine cones and round ornaments from acorn caps.  The words Peace, Love, Joy, Faith and Hope were attached to small hand painted gift boxes.  Small white doves are perched on little nests and complement the large bird in the top of the tree.  Dried hydrangeas, some curly branches and gold and bronze ribbon provide the finishing touch.  Natural colored burlap serves as the "tree skirt".
