A beautifully illustrated look at Christmas ornaments and the memories they hold on our trees First highlighted in the New York Times, Bonnie Mackay’s annual Christmas tree showcases a lifetime collecting almost 3,000 ornaments. Now, through beautiful photography and illuminating vignettes, Tree of Treasures shares the heartfelt stories behind a hundred of those cherished possessions, whether it’s the story of a family member, like Mackay’s grandfather, a well-known vaudeville performer; long-held relationships with friends and colleagues in the international community of Christmas crafts makers; a memory of a beloved pet; and much more. From serene lace angels and vintage Santas, to exquisite glass-blown spheres and small silk purses, Tree of Treasures showcases ornaments both beautiful and well-loved, illuminating how ornaments, as we unpack and hang them each holiday season, tell the story of our lives.
Deck the tree with homemade ornaments—pomanders, potpourris, buttons and bows, paint, glitter, and glue and edibles, too. And every one will make you feel part of a centuries-old tradition of holiday crafting. Fashion fragrant herb balls made of bay leaves, lavender, sassafras, and rose petals, and enjoy their lovely perfume mingled with evergreen. Added gems: tiny quilts, “Wild West” trinkets, papier-m�ch� birds, and more.
Bonnie Mackay celebrates Christmas like no one else: she has a collection of over 3000 ornaments. Her tree, which was profiled by the New York Times Style section in 2012, is spectacular. Each ornament represents a passage in Bonnie's life, each invites reflection, and together they create the portrait of a remarkable life. Bonnie's vision and love for these treasured objects give the reader a new understanding and appreciation of them. Bonnie's book stands alone on the true art and meaning of the Christmas tree and will be the perfect holiday gift for years to come.
