Xmas Tree
I just realized I haven't picked out a theme for my Xmas tree yet. I don't have traditional ornaments yet, so I usually do something 'pretty.' Last year I did
But this year I need something new. I've done pointsettias with gold balls before, but I don't want to do that again. I'm looking now.
What do you do with your tree?
Ps. i fixed pinterest. I had some weird toolbar that appeared and with it came problems. I figued out how to uninstall it, and now my pinning is back!
PPS. I know the pic is big, but I don't know how to make it smaller with tiny pics.
Re: Xmas Tree
My grandmother downgraded her tree and I have all their old ornaments. I remember some of them from when I was really little! I also have all my special ornaments that I've been given over the years/made in school etc. H has some ornaments but not as many as me.
Do you plan on doing a theme every year or eventually build up a collection?
This is what my mom did while we were growing up. Her trees now always look like something out of Martha Stewart Magazine.
Our tree is gold, green and red themed. Green and red balls, snow flakes, gold ribbon, etc. And each year I get us an ornament. Like First Christmas together, first home, and this year will be wedding themed. I saw where you cut strips out of your wedding programs/invites and strip them so they curl, then you put that in a glass ball. Might try this too lol.
As for your tree - what about blue while, and silver? Like a snowflake theme? I want this to be our next theme and alternate it... I'd have to go after christmas shopping to get it for cheap...
We put red, green, and white lights on our tree and I guess the majority of the ornaments follow that color scheme. We need to get a skirt and I have my eye on this one:
I was actually thinking about this. I have 2 other themes, but I'd like to add this to my rotation. I think I'm going to go to the Xmas Tree Shop and Dollar store and get the stuff today hopefully.
As far as a tree skirt- they are SO expensive. I actually go to JoAnne Fabric and get a few yards of a fun fabric, and then just wrap it aruond under the tree like a skirt- works just fine!
