A few years ago, my mom used a “Tale of Three Trees” theme for her Christmas table at an annual ladies event hosted by our church. She owned a copy of a beautiful picture book with the traditional story of the three trees and decided she would use the story as a theme. She used simple wooden objects, positioned around her table to illustrate the story. I created a printable to go along with it so that each guest had a small copy to take home.
Though I shared the printable here on my blog, somewhere along the way, the link was broken and the file went missing. I have had so many people request a copy in recent months and even had a typo pointed out. I just recently got around to making the updates and I would love to share it with you once again!
To create the look my mom used for her table, use the following:
- A small wooden boat
- A wooden cross
- A wooden crate or treasure chest
- Straw
- Tiny lights
- My printable story and images to frame
- Illustrated book
My Three Trees printable activity pack includes a foldable mini story book, coloring page, foldable treasure chest, cut and fold cone trees for decorating, colored and outlined tree banner, large and small printable images suitable for framing.
