![]() Now get comfy and check out all the other trees below. If you are a new visitor, thanks for stopping by! I’m so glad you did. I love how it turned out and think it goes perfectly with our Small Space Hot Cocoa Bar! I’ve officially used a theme and decorated a peppermint striped Christmas tree. Like the twirly candy cane ornaments or the small red bells. If I see any holes, I fill in with small ornaments. No fun.įinally, when each ornament has been added, I step back and look at it. That is after the initial shock-n-run reaction from us all. In other words, ain’t nobody got time for sweeping up glass while screaming at three dogs to come when all they want to do is sniff and check out what everyone is freaking out about. Even the ones that look like mercury glass are plastic. But I am unable to add them anymore until they are repaired.Īfter the last tree catastrophe, I learned my lesson – only buy plastic, cardboard, fabric or non-breakable ornaments. Several have photos with no teeth, fat cheeks, freckles and crazy hair. We especially treasure the ones with their faces on them. ![]() Nor did I keep all the hand made ornaments the kids crafted over the years. There isn’t a sentimental bone in my body so I haven’t collected them. Each Christmas ornament that was pulled out made me smile. We’ve had more tree accidents than I want to count so I’m hesitant to fill it up although I think super full trees are beautiful. Let your floral picks stick out a little further than the branches. Some people do their picks last to fill in gaps but I do the opposite. Mine are frosted cranberry stems as well as inexpensive cranberry candle rings that I opened up and straightened out. In addition to ribbon, I use floral picks which I add next. I want it to be noticed but not overwhelm the look. I cut the ribbon into 3 foot strips and tuck it in leaving large gaps in between each piece and randomly place them in a zigzag formation. It’s so much easier to tuck and shape when it’s wired. My favorite ribbon is made of cloth, not usually shiny and is definitely wired. The peppermint striped ribbon is the first thing I add. And that just ain’t right! It’s Christmas time a time to celebrate our Lord’s coming! Anyway, so that wouldn’t happen again, I decided I wasn’t making any new purchases and was only going to use the ornaments that were red, white or silver. I actually called it the Christmas Tree Without Charisma. It took two days to finish with maximum effort and it was just meh. ![]() Last year, I didn’t particularly like our tree.
