I already posted about how our main tree this year would be a four foot tabletop version. I am tired of heavy, cumbersome trees that I can't handle by myself. I have several small trees. The four footer is the largest. I also have a 3 footer and a two footer and I added a few skinny trees to the collection this year. I've scattered them throughout the house and on the porch.
I decided to try out a change on the main tree. I had it on a table, with a pretty skirt, surrounded by Christmas tins to ward off curious kitties.
Yesterday afternoon, I put it in a large washtub. When I asked my supportive hubby what he thought about the change, he said it looked kind of stupid, but if I liked it, it was fine with him. If the judge is female, I should make parole quickly.
I know. The washtub is a bit large, but I had to use something really big to hold the large green tree holder. I think it makes for a neater appearance.
While I was raiding my husband's galvanized collection, I borrowed a bucket to hold this tall, skinny flocked tree.
This tree was purchased from Rockin' B recently. I'll be using it for brunch decor at my parents house. For now, it's on the porch in hopes that lots of the messy white stuff will blow off. When I took this to the counter to purchase, I was wearing a black coat. Little white flecks got all over me. I looked like I had a horrid case of dandruff! Oh, the dangers of decorating!
Here's another tree. This one is in the foyer. This one is 3 feet tall.
I threw this one together really fast. It's simple, but it works. The green pot was something to make do with, but I kind of like the color there. I love the gold birds. I had thought about painting them something less flashy, but they really are nice in gold at Christmas.
Hey! I forgot to take a photo of my two foot tree! It's done up in silver. Oh well. I'm tired of writing about trees now anyway. I'm ready to go relax with a mug of eggnog!
