This is a small representation of the many that she has done. I framed them up and backed them with gold lame, added a thin layer of batting and topped them with a hanging loop. A Chrismon is a Christian symbol made as a tree ornament; typically they are done in gold and white, there are no other colors represented as they symbolize the sovereign Christ's purity. Chrismons were first displayed on a tree at Ascension Lutheran Church in Danville, VA; the idea of Mrs. Frances Spencer, in 1957. Our Chrismon tree is the first tree that goes up in our home, heralding the start of the Advent season.Life is Good!

Your daughter graduated from Southern? I graduated (twice) from LTSP! Oh, and the ceiling is GORGEOUS.
No, she didn't graduate, she attended. She was in the MAR program there and worked at a church in W. Columbia at the same time in Family Life Ministries before she decided to pursue classroom teaching (has her undergrad in ECE)in the public school system; she's a second grade teacher today. She feels strongly that she is providing more ministry in the classroom than she was working in a church... we both know how disappointing that can be when politics and personalities collide, particularly in a church setting.
These are adorable!
