7 Trees for 2013!!

This Christmas Season I have decorated 7 trees.  This post will feature the Turquoise & Brown Tree with a photo of the other trees (with links to more photos of each tree) -

This is a 6' white prelit half tree.  It is great because it goes right against the wall.  Brown garland is added -

Here's the turquoise w/brown  topper -

And the bottom has both turquoise and brown tulle -

Enjoy the ornaments -

And, here are the rest of the trees (with links to see more of each tree's ornaments).

Beach Tree - 6th Tree

The 6th tree this year is the Beach Tree -

This is a 3' wall tree found a couple years ago at a Goodwill.  The great part about these wall trees is you can wrap them in bubble wrap and place in a tote after the season.  Just minimal fussing to put it back in shape!!  The topper is a starfish sprayed with adhesive and sprinkled with red glitter -

Enjoy the ornaments -

The garland is several strands of shells that could also be used as necklaces -

Nice to look at with the temperatures hovering in the very very low double digits -

How about another photo of Lucy when she was a little one?  I used to love when she slept this way -

Refrigerator Ornaments

I have been wanting to make these and bought all the items a couple years ago.  It was so easy -- it took me about 15 minutes!!  Why did I wait all these years to make them!!!!

This is all you need - some magnets and a small tube of Liquid Nail.  I found all these at Walmart - magnets in the craft area and the Liquid Nail by the adhesives.  I have lots of ornaments bought at the after Christmas sales so I decided to use all silver ones this time.

Just dab some Liquid Nail on the magnet -

And, place the ornament on top -

I was doing about 4 at a time.  Here they are drying on a TV tray -

Wait at least a good hour to dry -

Then, have fun -

How about a flashback to a little Lucy photo?
