Creating art is not bad behavior. We had a little gallery in the bathroom when the kids were little. They brought crayons when it was time to sit on the toilette. Didn’t even paint it over when we moved.
i can relate. Allergic to many trees, including pine. Switched to a Christmas tree quilt that I made about forty years ago. Glad you switched to artificial foryour son.
About 40 years ago I made a Christmas tree quilt. Hang it on the wall, pin lights and decorations to it. When I finally take it down…could take months…I rinse off the dust and return it to the shelf. I started this because I’m allergic to trees and dust. Works much better for me.
I can’t use real or artificial trees because of allergies; so several decades ago, I made a Christmas tree quilt that I can pill decorations and lights to. I clean it after the season and seal it away from dust to take out the next year. Works really well.
