Christmas Tree Bling . . .

This year we have 4 Christmas trees.
You've already seen the kitchen window tree here
 & the grand kids tree here.
Now, take a look at 2 more.

This tree is blinged out with many ornaments collected over the years.  I love how hanging each ornament brings back memories from Christmases past.

Here's our son when he was in preschool.
He made the glittered tree in Sunday School when he was 2 years old.

Hallmark ornaments . . .

Ethan's hand print from last year . . .

Santa & an angel both party favors from class parties when I was in elementary school.

Did you notice there were no gifts under the tree?
Wrapping is on my to do list for tomorrow.


Piano room tree . . .
It's decorated with red and white.
Snow flakes, candy canes and a few ornaments.
I bought the deco mesh at Sam's.  I cut it in half so it would go further.
Kari did most of the decorating.  She did a great job!

Hi Carol! Your tree's are lovely. I have one with all the memories..and one that is just whimsy. Tree's are lots of work..but soworth it when all decorated. The wide beautiful ribbon gives your trees such a wonderful look.
Thanks for sharing.

Carol, you are a woman after my own heart, as you know by now how much I love decorating trees for Christmas, especially with family ornaments. Yours are beautiful. I too have to wrap gifts, maybe this weekend. ~smille~
Thank you for your visit, and for your sweet comment.

You are, for sure, the queen of bling. All so very cozy. You have a talent for wrapping, always that special touch to each gift.

I cannot believe that you have four Christmas trees. WOW! I read the words "as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" at the end of you profile description, and my heart smiled. I was up late last night, unable to sleep, and reflecting on those same words and what they mean in our little (growing) home. I actually blogged about it today! Funny how certain thoughts and words can be drawn to you when they are on your heart. Thank you and God bless! :)

So Pretty!!! I love the Mesh Ribbon on the tree. Very smart to cut it in half to make it go further. Have a wonderful Christmas.
