O' Christmas Tree

My family tree is full of ornaments, ribbon,
beads and decorative mesh ribbon. 
I have tons of homemade ornaments made by the kids,
Christopher Radko ornaments and other glass blown beauties. Each year I buy my kids a new ornament that reminds me of them.  My mom gives me an ornament in memory of my dad.  Each and every one stirs up a memory. 

 I get very sentimental when decorating the tree.

I love making the topper big and full.
Pheasant & Peacock feathers make it festive and whimsical.

A few of my favorites..

Here are some of the touches in the living room.
New Ballard Stockings!


But I always come back to the tree....


Don't forget to get entered in my Mikasa Dahlia 8 piece set!

Entries will end on Dec. 10th!!!!!!!!!

Stick around and visit for a while.  I have been posting about all of my holiday decor.  More trees are coming this week!

Don't forget to grab a button!

    OK -- That's it...I am moving in! Everything is beautiful, coordinates, is bright and shiny and sparkling. I bet it smells like pine over there too. I'm totally jealous, and if I don't watch myself, I will end up getting my Christmas decorations out, which I do not want to do!!! You are a marvel, Lacy!
