A beautiful tree will look beautiful almost no matter what you put in it. We usually go for a special Danish sort, that has broader and softer pins, making it appear fuller and fluffier. Add lights, two chains of them, that has a warm glow...then we take strands of golden pearls and spiral them through the tree, to be followed with golden tinsel. This alone now, looks gorgeous. Just a glimmery, soft tree. To finish it all off we just add baubles, mostly in a satin red but to break it off some white, or white and red striped ones too, some with glitter some without. Very simple, the theme being red, white, gold and silver and we never fail to get lots of compliments on our tree. For us, the most important is the tree itself and that it can withstand cat abuse.

You have a wonderful home! I have two small children and didn't get crazy with decor this year. I decided to make all my own ornaments with scrapbooking! I watched a few youtube videos and Bing Bang Boom - making my own ornaments! Love your House and Decor! You have a wonderful home! I have two small children and didn’t get crazy with decor this year.

Came to you by way of My Suzy Homemaker and her mom. Am going to begin blogging after a lesson next month. Reference christmas trees, I'm deathly allergic to real cut pines, so I get buy with an 8 foot pencil tree. To help with getting enough lights on it I have used zip tied to the trunk a special extension cord that is 6 feet long and has 4 plugs in line along it's lengtrh. It makes it easier to load the tree up with lights. Also I am a quilter so for 30 years I have been collecting sewing related ornaments. Rick-rack purchased at estates sales for garland. Love your white tree. Love your site. Came to you by way of My Suzy Homemaker and her mom. Am going to begin blogging after a lesson next month.

I have tons of silk flowers that I use for crafting and wooden letters and beads and never once considered putting them on my tree. Until now.
