Aqua & Lime Green Christmas Tree


It looks all blue on my ancient monitor, but there is quite a lot of green.

I used 4 different lime green balls. All of those I bought to mix with pink, ended up on this tree. It's amazing how many decorations it takes to do a tall (albeit skinny) tree like this one.

A few days ago I boxed up all the cookie jars that used to reside above the kitchen desk area. I am planning to put all my holiday houses up here. For the past few years, they have sat on this basement shelf untouched....It's a big pain in my growing derriere to unbox them all and set them up Their work vs. enjoyment ratio suggests that I should get rid of them after this final use.

I really need to get rid of a bunch of stuff. Did you see those shelves? Well, each shelf is pretty big and I have 12 of them full of Christmas items. The only reason one does not look full, is because I have already hauled quite a few items upstairs.

Here is the family room entertainment center awaiting it's transformation.

    Yeah, I have loads of Christmas stuff too. I heard Carole/Pea went through all her stuff and donated a lot. Not sure if I could do that yet.

  7. The tree is stunning and I know it's so much work....but, it is all worth it for just this few weeks of celebration and for those of us who peek in to see what wonderful creation you are up to next. Willow
