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!

 Antique luggage and boxes under the tree.

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!

    I never thought about using picks in the Christmas tree. What a great idea! And I love the magnolias. They remind me of my Grandma’s home – 2 big magnolia trees in her yard.

    I am impressed with the beauty of the tree noting how few ornaments and decorations were used. That would certainly be more affordable and quicker to decorate.

Instagram post 2166956522345413863_277411407 Garages aren’t the prettiest to look at but they do so many jobs. #ad Especially when you take your one car garage and turn it into an epic storage/workshop/ studio space! 💪🏻💪🏻 Our house is small and we needed just a bit more square footage for our tools, paint, shoes, an area to do DIY projects (um..instead of the dining room) and a space to store my light boxes for videos and a place for shooting videos. Not asking for too much, are we 🤔🤣 I’m blown away that we actually achieved all those wants/needs PLUS having lots of room to spare!! 😮 You must check out this tour and how you can get everything you need for a garage makeover from @bedbathandbeyondca.
