![]() Definitely not the fake trees of Christmas past! I love the snowy branches and how bright and happy this tree feels in our home. There are so many beautiful choices out there too. There was a time you couldn’t pay me to use a faux tree but now it’s my lifesaver. ![]() This is the second year I’m using a ‘faux’ flocked Christmas tree and I am as happy this year as I was last.īeing a blogger and having to put a tree up so early, a real one would never make it all the way to Christmas. Last year, my theme was icy blue gift wrap that compliment mostly neutral metallics throughout our home. You’ll see how I’ve used my color palette and I know you’ll find some great inspiration too ) The gift wrap theme I chose this year is modern, clean and simple – I wanted something crisp and refreshing, I used blue and white, with a focus on white wrapping paper, and navy, striped and tartan ribbon to compliment our decor. If you missed my two previous Christmas posts – Christmas Decorating Tips and A Classic Christmas Tablescape, you can catch them both here and here.

If you haven’t had a chance to see my inspiration post outlining my theme, you can read all about it right here. My hat goes off to them! That being said, no matter how much work it is, getting it all done so early, allows us to enjoy our home all decked out for the season – everyone is in the Christmas spirit and I’m thrilled that my hubby and kids love our decor this year. This year, I decorated only one tree – I don’t even know how my blogging friends with multiple trees, pull it all off each year. *Affiliate links are provided in this post for your shopping convenience – while I make a small commission on these items, it’s no extra cost to you!
