Pinterest Pretties: O' Christmas Tree...

Now that Thanksgiving is in the past, it's time to pick up a Christmas tree sometime in the next few weeks. We don't have a lot of ornaments, I kind of want to collect special ones over time. My mom did send me some heirlooms last year but they didn't arrive until after Christmas so I'm excited to put them up this year. We do have a tradition where Jake and I pick out an ornament together every year, which I love.

I've been seeing trees popping up all over pinterest lately so I thought I'd share some of the pretties with you.

I love the color combo of this tree. It's so pretty and the ornaments are fun and bright. If you click on the little {via} button it will take you to design sponge where you can find free printables for the ornaments and a holiday poster.

I'm going to make one of these for the front porch. It's an upside down tomato cage wrapped in lights. How easy!

I really like the simplicity of this tree and how sparse it looks.

I really want to jump into this photo Mary Poppins style. I love the lace table cloth, all of the wood and the fruit hanging on the tree, not to mention the bucket used as a tree stand. *swoon*

This little tree makes me smile. It kind of reminds me of something my little brother and I made once as children while waiting for my dad at one of his job sites. This tree is much prettier than our wooden one though.

  7. The first one is my fav! The past two years, we've been using a little 4 foot pre-lit tree that I sit on a coffee table. Next year I was thinking about getting a white tree. I used to think they were tacky, but now I just adore them!
