Confessions from a Christmas Tree-aholic

I like Christmas trees.

 Lots and lots of them.  

Very many lots and lots of them.

After collecting and crafting ornaments for a lifetime, I have plenty of Foof to throw on the trees too.

So different areas of the home get divided up in to themes.  This is my woodland corner.  It seemed suitable to have by my husband’s fireplace. This trio is all from Walmart, they have affordable and attractive ones there.  And I like mixing mine up, with this spot holding three narrow ones in various heights.

My dear lil deer belong by the silver forest.

At a garage sale this past summer, I scored this ombré pink tree for five bucks. It’s on the dog kennel and while it would’ve been clever to cover it in pet themed ornies, nope- it is filled with shiny Brites and putz houses.

Here is another metallic one from Walmart.  It is champagne toned instead of silver.

The theme on top of this cabinet is silver and gold with cherubs.

My embellished violins are out all year, but I think they add a nice touch at the holidays too, so leave them displayed.

In the living room there are multiple mini trees on top of the wardrobe that holds the tv.  And a nice, fat, white, tabletop one filled with hand made pieces by the sofa.

Here’s more minis on the mantel.

This is the baby pink tree that used to be Sugarwings’ as a child (theirs is now a silver one decked out in Nightmare Before Christmas and kept by their bed.)  That kid has moved on from pink, but I haven’t, so now it holds a few of hand painted balls from over the decades.

Hmm, somehow I missed getting photos of my main, big tree (and I have to admit, a few other small ones).  

But here is my newest fave- a simple white tree with a single strand of teensy lights to enjoy while I soak in the tub of my newly repaired and revamped bathroom.  There might be wine involved while gazing at this tree.
