Christmas Tree Decorate – Tree Toppers:

Sabra’s Floral Tree Topper.

She has detailed several decorating tips several of which I’m going to incorporate next year. My favorite is #4 stuff decorations inside your tree. A friend of mine just shared a tip where she stuffed poinsettia flowers around her tree. {{fabulous}}

Tiaras & Tantrum’s Tree Topper

Taya’s topper in traditional colors of red, green, and gold.

Lori’s tree topper made from pics.

Themed Trees:

Mandee’s theme is Nightmare Before Christmas. She used modge podge to paste images into wood to make the ornaments. Mandee is planning on attaching them to garland for Halloween next year.

Fostering Creativity gets a nom for having the most trees! Check out her post on all her themed trees from their Travel tree, The Carolina/State Tree, The Crystal Tree, The Wedding Tree, and Black & Silver tree (shown).

They have a tradition of buying an ornament on every trip they take so as they decorate their tree they remember where they’ve have been that year as well as years past.

Lisa’s kitchen veggie/fruit tree.

Cecilia’s Red & White beauty.

Nicole’s Silhouette Tree and Diva tree’s are amazing. She’s also detailed tons of great decorating tips.
