Look how lovely this tree is! The purple ornaments along with accents of gold and purple bows work well together. The tree is located in our great room - an open space that includes the family room, kitchen and dining area - one where we basically cook, eat, relax and watch tv! I love how the tree turned out - it's quite pleasing to the eye, don't you think!
I usually put up three trees, but this year, just two. I found a 6ft flocked tree from Walmart a couple of years ago that I really love! I got another one this year for the same price of $30! So much better than the 7ft tree that I normally put together branch by branch! Yuck! I decorated my first tree last week for our Festive Christmas Ideas Blog Hop! It's located in the front of the house, visible by anyone who comes to our door. I think it looks elegant blending in with my furniture!
I'm thrilled to be sharing my second decorated tree this year at the Annual Christmas Tree Decor Blog Hop hosted by Michelle @Our Crafty Mom.
This tree is adorned with a handmade treetop bow with reversible plum color ribbon on one side and green on the other . . .
with additional matching handtied bows throughout . . .
Plus gold accented ornate ornaments . . .
Setting the mood at dusk . . .
with sparkly lights that creates a magical spell when lit!

Your purple themed tree is beautiful, Gail! I know you are so much enjoying it in your great room where you can see it multiple times a day. The purple ribbon that you used with the contrasting color on the opposite side is so pretty. I've never seen ribbon like that and it looks wonderful on your tree.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Paula! I love that ribbon too! I think I got it at either Costco or Sam's a few years ago. It's a 50yd roll which is very economical! Enjoy your holidays!
DeleteI love your tree, Gail! I usually do a purple-themed tree in my bedroom and have never thought of doing it on a white Christmas tree. It looks beautiful...I may have to steal that idea :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Wanda! Be sure to do a post on yours - especially if it's anything like the wintry theme tree you did for this hop! So pretty!
DeleteI love the purple on a flocked tree, it is so unusual and lovely. It reminds a bit of a fairytale come true, so pretty. Pinning this perfection for later!
ReplyDeleteThe purple is gorgeous on this flocked beauty. I'm not sure that I would ever have thought of a total purple theme. I love it. You did a great job.
ReplyDeleteYour tree is a stunner, Gail! The purple and gold shine and sparkle is so pretty against the flocked branches.
ReplyDeleteLove the unexpected purple-themed tree! I wouldnt have enough decorations to make one myself but I love the look of it, it's so lovely!
ReplyDeleteI love how you stick to a purple theme in your home decor. Both of your trees are so unique in color and are so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGail, Your tree is so lovely. That ribbon is outstanding with that contrasting green backing on it. All of your purple ornaments are so pretty and perfect for your purple and white tree. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
ReplyDeleteGail, I couldn't wait to see your tree as I knew you'd incorporate purple and it as even prettier than I thought it would be! The ribbon you chose is stunning. The color is magnificent. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity!
ReplyDeletePurple is timeless ! Your tree is beautiful and I truly could see this in my family room which s all white. In fact that a color I am thinking of getting for my bedding. Have a great holiday.
ReplyDeleteI love how rich and pretty the purple ornaments are! It turned out so pretty, I've seen several purple ornaments this year that had me thinking and now that I've seen your tree I'm convinced, I definitely need a purple tree.
ReplyDeleteI just knew you would have a stunning tree in purple. So different and still very very pretty for the season. You did a great job on putting this one together this year.
ReplyDeleteYour tree is lovely, Gail. You can pull off purple decor with some pretty flair!
ReplyDeleteGail, your tree is gorgeous and so original in purple! I love the bows and the shiny purple ornaments. The flocked tree you chose really makes the purple hues pop!
ReplyDeleteOkay! I think I am totally in love with the purple theme. This is beautiful. I bet it looks so pretty to drive by your house and it really does look fabulous with your furniture. I love it! Merry Christmas!
