Real Life: Live & Unscripted: A peek at the Christmas Tree....

December 10, 2008

A peek at the Christmas Tree....

This year we decided on bronze, gold and ivory for the tree.

I am so in love with these ornaments.

Have to do one with a reflection of moi.... lol

This is my favorite....I don't know if you can see it but it says HOPE.

And joy....

These are like little disco balls...I call it my ombre ornament lol. It goes from gold to bronze. I would LOVE to have some fabric like this lol.

I love the pearl garland too. I had to have it lol. Even though Christmas hasn't even arrived yet, each year the kids pick the colors of the tree. Next year is Kayla's turn and she wants...BLUE, SILVER, and splashes of hot pink. lol

I will start buying ornaments the day after Christmas lol.

I have something to tell you guys, but not until next post :-) lol

Have a great day all!

Toodles!

Very pretty. Good idea letting the kids help choose colors every year. I never thought of that but let them help pick ornaments from colors I chose. I see a change coming. :-)

Love the tree. Nice tradition to let the kids pick the colors each year. My kids could care less what color is on our tree. lol

Very cute. The colors blend well together. The blue and silver will look awesome...and the hot pink. I am surprised she didn't add her green in there too.

The tree looks very pretty. Love the pearl garland.

Next years colors sound really pretty together.

Looks very pretty. I love "themed" trees. But at my house, everything just gets thrown in. I'm working toward an all glass/silver/white tree and slowly it's getting there. But for some reason, all those "character" ornament keep getting thrown on it .... maybe next year.

We decided on blue/silver unbreakable ornaments and tinsel this year. Inexpensive. But fun for the girls, so they can touch the tree all they want without worry.

Plus the tinsel fight with all the leftover was a blast!

Posted by: Lisa | December 10, 2008 at 11:35 AM

Beautiful! I love you allow the kids to pick a color theme!

Beautiful ornaments. You change ornaments every year? WOW!!! That has to be expensive.

Very nice!!! I have to do some ornament reflection shots!
And what the heck? You change trees every year! Wowee!!!

I love the colors. And those ornaments are gorgeous! I like Kayla's color scheme. Our colors for last year & this year were/are navy blue, light blue, silver, and white. I think I may change up next year though because we're going to have a live tree for the first time (wanted to wait til the baby got a lil older). I'm so excited about getting a live tree :D.

Love the ornaments....we wont have a tree AGAIN for the second year in a row because I'm afraid our puppy will eat the dang thing. But usually I do clear lights with angel ornaments with silver everything else.

I miss having a tree. :-(

I love your tree. One day someone's going to request some colors that are going to give you fits. What colors have you had so far? A gang tree (blue & red)? A Halloween tree (orange & black or brown)?

Who chose this years colors?
