Legendary handbag designer Kate Spade was born on Christmas Eve, and her husband and daughter have incorporated the holiday in a moving tribute to Spade, who died of suicide in early June.
Andy Spade posted a photo of how he and the couple's 13-year-old daughter, Bea, turned a scraggly tree into a beautiful Christmas tribute to Kate. He said they found the tree outside the home of friends.
As Andy Spade explained in the accompanying text: Kate "was born Christmas Eve, 1962. She loved the Midwest, the desert, and the city. I was lucky enough to have dear friends let my daughter stay at their home through a difficult time. This tree was standing alone beside the house so we ordered those multicolored, old fashioned lights from Amazon or Target and another dear personal friend gave me a really Iong extension cord and Bea and I cut a star out of the cardboard box the lights came on and wrapped it in Reynolds wrap like we do every Christmas."
