My decorating tip: If at all possible, have your tree visible through a window. It make the most charming background on the inside and the prettiest decoration from the outside!
The tree I am sharing with you, though, is my daughter's tree. This is in our guest room, which our daughter claims as her own. That's fine by me, I want her to visit as often as she can!! This tree has a seaside theme to it. There are two family collections of ornaments, one are sleigh bells given to my husband while he was a principal and the other a Hallmark collectible on the 12 Days of Christmas. The silver bells and clear acrylic make perfect accompaniments to the starfish, greens and silvers of the tree.

A few special ornaments give a tree focus and beauty. We love the soft green of the stocking and the adorable tag.

I love the green and white decor on your Christmas tree! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love the seaside theme of your daughter's tree. It reminds me of being at the beach! And I absolutely agree with your tip. Seeing the tree through the window, especially when lit, is so beautiful! Merry Christmas!

Green is one of my favorite colors. :) We have a similar sleigh bell on our tree. And I'm loving the starfish! My youngest daughter and I made a beachy Christmas wreath and it has starfish and shells from South Carolina. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for putting the parade together for us, Terri!

I love the memories each ornament holds. Beautiful tree, beautiful ornaments. I'm also impressed by how many trees you've done in the past. My family has never done more than one. I've always dreamed of having two though!
ReplyDeleteI'm also a huge fan of the green and white decor for the tree! I really want to have a tree that's only white or only gold ornaments one year!
ReplyDeletewhat a great christmas tree parade. love your silver mixed in with natural green and burlap colors. totally makes it so versatile
ReplyDeleteI love having meaningful ornaments, it makes it so much fun every year to decorate the tree and relive all those fond memories.
ReplyDeleteI really like the idea of having the tree by the window, because it's beautiful from inside and outside. Both perspectives are nice when it comes to a tree! xx Adaleta Avdic
