Yes, I finally finished my Christmas Tree! Three days before Christmas, not bad!! Okay, so I did already have up six other small trees but in order to fully enjoy Christmas ya have to have a big tree for the kids. If you missed it check out those trees here.... http://johnniesjunk.blogspot.com/2011/12/few-of-my-favorite-things-christmas.html!
By the time that I got to my big tree I had used almost all my ornaments. So for the first time I did a rustic tree and used very little to make the tree come to life. The renovation on this room is almost complete and I am almost ready to share those pictures with you. If you could see the room though I think you would agree that a rustic tree works out just perfect in this room.
I do love this simple star topper. I have to admit though I have seen some pretty amazing rustic tree toppers this year. Maybe next year I will think outside of the box a little more.
The train is something that my husband does each year. It's a tradition that was passed down from his Grandfather. The kids LOVE having it under the tree but I have to admit that it's hard making room for the presents.
Well, I think that will be just about it this year as far as decorations go!
See you soon!
Your tree looks beautiful. I love rustic decor on Christmas trees. I know some people like them themed... I don't care much for themes on tree; but then I guess you can say, Rustic is a theme...
ReplyDeleteI like the fabric strips and twigs...
the train is so cool too.
We didn't put up a tree this year-- so I'm enjoying looking at everyone else's!
take care, glad blogger is working now, for you!
