Here’s my tree this year. While I’ve had every type and colour of tree in the past, this year I purchased a new 7 1/2’ ‘green’ artificial one with tons and tons of ‘branch tips’. My favorite tree would definitely be a Noble Pine for it’s scent, strength & number of branches but it isn’t always possible to bring home the tree, especially when you want to set it up early December and hope to have it last into the New Year. For that you might want to go with a flocked tree that seems to last forever and looks magical.
This year I chose navy, silver and crystal decorations for the tree, and then added turquoise. It’s almost always my go-to colour. I’m hoping that you can see that I have both large and small decorations on the tree. No ribbon this year. If you want to add ribbon to your tree you need to install it right AFTER you install the lights. That way you can work the ribbon deep into the tree instead of just on the surface.
