Every year I decorate my small Christmas trees throughout the house in different themes. 

One of my favorites is my dog themed tree. Now that my 2 pups, Charlie and Dylan have passed away this tree is extra special.

I collect dog themed ornaments with different meanings and memories.

My best decorating hack for themed trees is to always be on the lookout, not just at Christmas and in regular stores. 

I find ornaments and decorations at craft stores, flea markets, and yard sales too.

I add one or two new ornaments for each tree every year. These ones were recently added in memory of my boys.

Now we have a new pup Elvis and I am on the lookout for a ornament in his honor!

I do not just decorate with just ornaments either. Mementos, small toys, painted rocks, and paw prints.

I display my tree on a shelf by my dogs portraits and framed photos. The perfect spot!

I love this tree and all the decorations it displays. 

You don’t have to spend a lot on fun and unique ornaments.

This one was $1 at Target this year and looks like my cocker spaniel!

I love my beagle dog painted rock and add that to my tree top.

Charlie’s paw print makes a beautiful decoration.

Enter to win my favorite Christmas ornament!

    Love your dog themed Christmas tree! That’s awesome you have a cocker spaniel! I have a Shih Tzu who just turned 3 – it would be fun to have a Christmas tree just for him!

    Your doggy tree is super cute! I’ve never seen a dog themed tree before, and I love it. The dog ornaments are really cute and all unique.

    We just adopted a toy poodle in May. Our favorite holiday tradition is wearing matching pajamas.

🍓 Today is National Pick Strawberries Day. Going to local farms and picking fresh produce is one of our favorite family traditions. We were lucky enough to go strawberry picking at @eckertfarms last weekend. It was the biggest farm we have ever been to and quite a memorable experience! We left with a basket full of fresh juicy berries, strawberry cider and pastries from the market, and soaking wet clothes (but smiles on our faces). I'll share more about the hail storm that hit us in the middle of the field later... ⛈️😨 #nationalpickstrawberriesday #farmfresh  #strawberry #eckerts #farmtotable #farmlife #illinois #springtime #familyfun #eckertfarms #eckertsmemories

❤️This week marks 2 years since our beloved cocker spaniel Dylan passed away. I created this free printable Rainbow Bridge poem on the blog in honor of Dylan. It can be customized with your pet's photo and would be a  cherished framed gift for someone who has lost a special pet. #rainbowbridge #doglove #dogheaven #rip #mydog  #neverforgotten #rainbowbridge🌈

Happy Birthday to my Mom! We were lucky this year to be together (finally!) to celebrate. We started with a delicious brunch at @sybillstj and then enjoyed the gorgeous sunny day with a walk around Meremac Springs. It was a great day with some of my favorite people! #mymom #birthday #happybirthday #missourilife

🌯Late #CincoDeMayo post! My first visit to @forttacostl last night was delicious! I tried a variety and loved it all. They were out of pork but that gives me an excuse to go back and try the al pastor pork and homemade sauce next time!
