White tree a la upstairs






This is the tree that I set up in my room:
White, faux, like a canvas, open to over the top color or a minimalist palette.
I chose to decorate it with glittered ornaments, sugared fruits, lots of new and vintage millinery flowers, little glittered birds and silver tinsel.

Christmas Tree a la downstairs




This is the tree for the living room: It is a fir tree (live).
Our house cats favor the real trees over the faux ones. Gives the house that good wild, woodsy feeling.
I decorated this one in red and gold glass ornaments, jingle bells, vintage postcards, and paper cones filled with chocolates. And of course loads of tinsel.
