It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

I'm kind of ignoring all the upcoming holidays this season - but people are starting to say 'Happy Holidays' and 'Merry Christmas,' trees and lights are everywhere and I'm finally starting to cave in. The first signs of caving in are excessive Christmas tree pins!

I love big decadent holiday trees! One year I'm going to have a fabulously themed tree that's huge and awesome! For now, I have a fake, hot pink, 12 incher with random things like key chains for ornaments. It works but I still like tree fantasizing - did you notice the Woodland tree!? Eeee! I also really love the cotton ball tree idea and it would be super cute decorated with little fabric ornaments.

I have less Christmas decorations than any other holiday which for now is perfect. I really like the simple holiday look like these three above - evergreens with gold and silver accents because it's more like seasonal decorations rather than outright Christmas decorations. 

I don't know what it is about Christmas decorations, maybe it's those colored lights, you know the ones...orange, blue, red, green and yellow - something about those lights glowing on the little reindeer plushies with cute faces just make the decorations a little kooky. In a good way of course, just kinda goofy and funky and definitely playful. I like that bright, colorful style but I also really like this more elegant, simple style. Pinecones, mistletoe and mercury glass glowing from strands of white lights - so pretty! I guess it's kinda like Santa's Workshop vs. Winter Wonderland - which style are you drawn to?!
