Family Tree Round-Up

In our family, I am the designated family historian and have been collection bits of family history and photos for the past few years. I am loving the beautiful, modern family tree charts from My Tree & Me and have included the Proud as a Peacock design to my Christmas wish list. I came across this company via OhDeeDoh and found a few other ETSY sellers who offer lovely family tree charts as well.


The Small Object offers another modern tree chart. An 11x17 chart is only $18.

Sarah Jane Studios also offers a super sweet blue or pink family tree chart perfect for a nursery.


And for a non-traditional take on the family tree, I love this idea from Emilia Jane of Auburn & Ivory who created a family tree photo display using old black and white photos above her bedroom dresser. Sigh.

These are very sweet. I had everyone in our family sit down at my son's first Christmas and draw a tree for him. I made him a scrapbook of his very own family "tree".

I love photo family trees. I once saw an 18"-2' tall metal tree in a store with jewelry displayed on it and have since been looking for something similar to display small framed family photos on. You figure it out for me and I'll copy you!!!

Lisa,

You should check out Urban Outfitters; they have several "tree" jewelry stands that might work.
