Christmas Tree Theme's

I usually choose a theme for our Christmas tree.    I have done a Carousel Christmas tree.....Santa Loves the Ballet tree,  Wedding Dress Christmas tree,    Fairy Land Christmas tree,    Candy Land Christmas tree...and the list goes on and on.   I've done a lot of tree's in my time....lol!

We took a road trip to Lubbock Texas yesterday to visit Holland Nursery.   We've gone to their Christmas Tree display for years.    I don't know how many decorated tree's they have,  but I'm sure it's over 100.     One of my favorites this year was the Pink Fantasy tree.

Purely Elegant and Winter Berry were second and third.   Does anyone see a "pink pattern" here!

I am also drawn to the nature themed trees.....

I loved Moss Wonderland.

I have quite a few nutcrackers,  but for some reason  I've never done a Nutcracker tree.   Maybe next year....

This is the Fairy Land tree that I had in the kitchen last year.   
 
I takes a good hour to walk thru Holland's and see all the trees.....

Isn't he the cutest thing....

Life size kitty.....

Life size Mr and Mrs Santa dressed for a party....

Isn't this Victorian Santa gorgeous!

And of course.....the real reason for the season.....

What did I buy?    It was hard to decide because I limit myself to only one or two new things for the season....but I couldn't resist the sheep in this nativity set.

  1. OH, Golly---that is Christmas overload. I find when there is too much I can't make a decision. Just showed Grandbaby girl the Macy's Christmas Trees on Friday. I think I will have a handmade project for her next week. She loved the butterfly tree...and those will be easy to make..grins...so much fun! Sandi

  4. Penny,
    Beautiful Trees and yes, the pink one is my favorite. Is there a Michael's by you? I went there yesterday and almost all Christmas was 40% off and there was a coupon for an additional 25 % off including Sale items. They seem to have more a Nostalgic look in their Christmas items and a lot of Birds and Cardinals. I picked up a bunch of ornaments and they have some cute Fairy ornaments that i think your grand daughter would love. I think our style of Christmas decorating is making a come back!!

    Hugs,
    Deb

  9. I do love seeing Christmas tree themes, but I never do one. Mine is always the same every single year....multi colored with absolutely everything on it! I think I need a second tree so that I can theme that one!

    Thanks for linking up to Marvelous Monday on Smart Party Planning.

  11. I have never had a theme for my Christmas tree, and I fear it is pretty much the same one year after year. But, I love seeing themed trees and the creativity of putting one together, it is pretty awesome!
    Thank you so much for sharing with us at Brag About It!
