![]() If things are perfectly symmetrical or too orderly you cannot watch them for hours, because they make sense after just a minute (is this just me?) I wanted lights to play and dance and chase each other around berries and glittered ornaments and light airy tulle. I decided to go for a softer, more whimsical feel for that reason. The type that a child (or adult) could just lay under and watch for an hour. I wanted the entire tree to feel enchanting. I wanted plenty of sparkle so glittering everything was obvious. I am also a sucker for anything sparkly! I love the twinkle of Christmas lights and the way they make everything around them gleam. Basically all my Christmas decorations are hand me downs, so red can’t really be helped, but if I had my way all my Christmas decor would be “silver and gold, silver and gold” and of course a touch of white and bronze, just to be safe :)! So I used that as my jumping off point for my dream tree. Something you may not know about it me is that I am not a huge fan of the color red… like… it is my least favorite color. Over the last few years I have loved watching all the gorgeous trees talented people created and I was so excited that I would finally get to design my very own dream tree! In my mind, Thanksgiving and Christmas go hand in hand and blend perfectly together! Because I love the holidays so much, when Michaels approached us about being Michaels Makers this year, the very first thing I thought of was the dream tree challenge. I know lots of people are sticklers about Thanksgiving coming before Christmas (each to her own) but I am not one of them. ![]() Guys!!!! I cannot believe it is November 1st, which to me means the start of the holiday season! The last two months of the year are undoubtedly my favorite.
