Sundays with Ydp: Decorating the Christmas tree
If you’ve been following us, you know that my hubby and son picked out an awesome tree for our home last week. The height and girth are perfect and the aroma is divine.
Here it sat in the sitting room waiting for a little love.
Not long ago the family would all pitch in to decorate the tree.
These days I need a location device to figure where everybody went….With teenages and a busy hubby, decorating the Christmas tree has somehow become a lonely undertaking.
But that’s okay, I’m usually singing and jammin to my favorite holiday tunes, and before long the job is done.
Here’s how the tree turned out
I went for bronze, gold and a pop of red!
And it never hurts to add a little leopard in the mix…..just because I love love love it and it never seems to go out of style!
I usually add vignettes in various places
Scented pine cones are awesome because they add a layer of delicious aromas to the atmosphere…..They are also very nice for powder rooms
These are nestled atop an entryway console table with faux cranberries
Holiday ornaments placed in vases or bowls are a simple way to add interest
Poinsettias are fabulous for adding saturated pops of gorgeous red
A solid wrapping paper with the same ribbon, gives a consistent and elegant look under the tree.
My home office needed a little love too.. isn’t this tree so cute?
What cool vignettes do you like to use at home? Are you ready for the holiday?
