Glittered and Jewelled Christmas Tree

Christmas

I’m loving my new glittered and jewelled Christmas decorations this year!

Flocked Christmas tree with glittery ornaments.

Well something happened this weekend at my house….Christmas happened, that’s what!

I watched tonight as my kids nestled in close to the timeless Christmas tree and sipped hot chocolate (and didn’t fight!).

I’m showing off these new quaint Christmas ornaments on my flocked tree!

They’re neutral (which is a must for me) but the glitter and jewels off these ornaments just make everything in the room sparkle and pretty.

Glitter and jewelled Christmas tree with a wooden beaded chandelier.

Here is my new tree that I just purchased this weekend. It looks beautiful without anything on it. I bought it at Canadian Tire and unfortunately they don’t sell it anymore.

Christmas tree with the lights on and an armchair beside it and a doll on it.

But now comes the fun part, the Christmas decorating!

Do you know what picks are? Have you put them on your tree ever? I haven’t and have seem them just over the past couple of years.

They are basically an ornament you just stick in the tree and have it stick out a bit for dimension.

These magnolia picks are gorgeous and I’m in love with picks now.

 Glittery magnolia picks on the floor beside the tree.

The pretty ornaments are jumbo size which fill in the tree so nicely. This set came with 35 pieces and I thought it wouldn’t be enough. I actually had a hard time fitting them all on this tree!

The glittery and sparkly ornaments on the tree.

The bejewelled white silk ribbon and glittery ornaments are stunning. I’ve never had such a fancy tree before.

Jewelled silk ribbon on the tree beside the sparkly ornament.

It’s like this tree needs to hold a glass of sparkly champagne and wear stilettos it’s so fancy.

I’m in looooove with these magnolia picks.

I love the mix of texture and colours in this set. This one looks like bronze.

I wasn’t sure if the picks and ribbon would go together or be too much but I think they look perfect together.

The combination from a distance is stunning as well.

Here are some shots with the Christmas lights on.

I made a bow out of this gorgeous grey velvet ribbon.

The bronze bow on top of the tree.

Here is a close-up of the tree skirt. I love the sparkle with the linen fabric and the big buttons.

I’m in love with this fancy tree. I hope you liked the glitter and jewels as much as I do.

Be sure to visit the other Tastemakers this week featuring different Balsam Hill Christmas ornaments.

    I loved your tree, it is stunning! I live in Toronto and impatiently waiting for a real tree. Last year we were in
    Asia and didn’t return til mid December and the only tree we found were the flocked trees, to be honest I was not
    keen on getting it but once I got it home and decorated it I feel in love.
    Another flocked tree this year for us!

Our basement is the perfect place to store seasona Our basement is the perfect place to store seasonal / holiday / decor items. I’ve had plenty of it over the years (too much!) as I’ve been blogging for 10 years! I went through all my Christmas decor this year before I packed it all away and got rid of so much! It felt so good. 💚 Next, I’ll do the same for the other holidays coming up (like Easter, I have 2 bins just for Easter!). Decluttering is easier when it’s done in stages. I’m also really into minimal seasonal decor lately so I think it will be much easier to say goodbye to the extra ‘stuff’. 💚➡️ What about you?
