Christmas Tree Reveal

Good riddance burgundy! In case you didn’t catch word, we’ve put the tree up at our house! For some reason it’s been happening the week before Thanksgiving for the past few years. I consider that to be an “official tradition” wouldn’t you ;) I gave the tree a little makeover this year by replacing all of my burgundy items with cream and I LOVE it! No offense to burgundy it just didn’t fit in my home.

brown, tan, cream, and gold are the new tree colors this year

Can you spot my book page ornaments? I covered all of my burgundy ornaments with mod pog and book pages…. easy fix!

The top of the tree has a few twigy items popping out of it. I spray painted all of my burgundy twigs a cream color.

I added some cut up burlap strips to pull in more of a neutral tone and a few feathers to fill in some gaps.

Let’s not forget about my new ruffled tree skirt! If you want to make one you can check out Miss Mustard Seed’s tutorial! Mine is definitely lacking in WOW factor compared to hers…. ah well ;) What colors are you using on your tree this year?

Giving In

I don’t know what it is about this week before Thanksgiving but it seems to be “the week” that I always put my tree up. I’m redoing my tree this year and I’m getting really antsy to see the finished product so….. I’M PUTTING UP THE TREE! I’ll take pictures when it’s all finished; it’s quite the process! For now here is what my tree looked like before…..

All of that burgundy is going bye bye and I can’t wait!
