Like many things (homes, weddings, clothing styles) I appreciate such a variety of styles. This also holds true for Christmas decor, specifically trees. I love all the different style sof trees-modern, country, eclectic, matchy matchy,etc. Here are a few of my favorites:
My Serene Dream Home Tree (which magically would negate all holiday tension and stress)
My Remote Country House Tree (which causes inexplicable desires to bake cinnamon scented goodies)
My California Home Outdoor Tree (perfect for drinking cold beverages around and laughing at those who live where it snows)
My City Living Tree (because to get a big tree would require removing the sofa from the apartment)
My Uber-Modern Designer Chic Tree (because retro is sooooooo in, even at Xmas)
My Unabashedly Girlie Tree (pink, pink and more pink-who says it has to be green and white)
My I Could Leave This Up Year Round Tree:
I hope everyone is getting their shopping done and getting ready for some time off!
I need a city-living tree, but when you are living in the city there are no little trees like that to cut down… so I go without! ;(
Anyway, I was wondering…. Do we get to see a photo of your actual tree?? I am sure that I am not the only one who would LOVE to see! Merry Christmas!!
Hi Erin,
Do you have any idea where the mermaid topper is from on the last tree? I collect mermaids, and I absolutely love it!!
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
Love the city tree, of course all are gorgeous!!
I love a well styled tree but nothing says “home” like a crazy tree stuffed full of chilluns hand made ornaments, I hope when I have babies I can tone down the “Type A” and let it go…Funny story, did you know you have to water Christmas Trees? The live ones at least? Because I certainly didn’t and what was once our beautifully decorated tree now looks like the Charlie Brown Christmas tree…whoopsie daisies!
obsessed with the colors in the last picture…gorgeous!
Very interesting- enjoying looking at them out here in Vail. Have a Merry Christmas!

I love the idea of doing something different with a Christmas tree. These are beautiful. I didn’t have the time to shop for new accessories this year, so thought I would hit the sales and get some pink things for next year!
