House Tour Recap - The Trimmed Tree(s)




The tree is up and decorated! It looks so pretty at night and smells amazing! I used a collection of ornaments I've gathered over the years. Most are silver, glass, white and blue ones. A common theme for me not just at Christmas time!
I have my favorites, like the long glass tear drops and the little bottle brush balls (Dollarama!), but mostly I just love how they all look together reflecting off the white lights. Is there anything prettier?!
I know the pictures are dark, but with the flash on it just doesn't look as pretty! Believe me, I think I took about 50 pictures just of the tree!






There are also a couple of little trees upstairs. This one in a spare bedroom was wrapped in feather boas and decorated with chandelier drops leftover from the light fixtures in the kitchen, and old earrings. So easy to put together, yet so pretty.




Another tree was in the office/sitting room. It was simply wrapped with a string of blue and white pompom balls we had fun making one night. Did you make those when you were a kid?


I'll be linking up to the Holiday Home Linky Party over at Thrifty Decor Chick tomorrow! Head over there to check out everyones beautiful Christmas trees!

  6. Beautiful! I don't think that I ever got a decent picture of our tree. They sure are hard to photograph.
