O Christmas Tree




Yay!  It's Christmas Tree time and I'm so excited to share our 2012 tree with you!  :)

As you know from my DIY pinecone wreath and mantel, we're going for a more rustic and natural look this year...which means lots of metallics, burlap browns, and winter whites.  And very little red.  It was actually fun to sort through my ornaments and display my neutral baubles on the tree.


I especially love Baby's First Christmas ornaments! 


Some burlap ribbon, crystal garland and mercury glass ornaments set the ton. 


Another Baby's First! 


It puts out such a great glow...love it!


Of course, the space would not be complete without a couple toys!


Or a cute baby!  ;)


And a nighttime shot...complete with cropping out of the baby swing and all!  ;)


So there you have it...our Christmas Tree!

You can see our 2011 tree here!  :)

Now head on over to Honey We're Home to link up your Christmas Tree!!


And don't forget to stop by on Thursday to share your recipes!

  10. Love! You did such a nice job. And what a cute photo of Ethan with the lights.

    I want to do a Gingerbread type decorating theme one year - maybe when the kiddos are a bit older to really enjoy it.

  13. So pretty, Natasha. The burlap and pinecones are perfect. But not as cute as that babe. I am loving the "babes in toyland" reference!

  14. Natasha, your tree is beautiful! I actually recommended your blog to a few people at work as a great example of the "Rustic Christmas" trend we're seeing so much at retail and online. Thanks for the inspiration!

  16. Love the touch of burlap! I've had a burlap ruffled tree skirt on my diy list for like a year now! Lol maybe next year, my 36w pregnant brain is just in meltdown mode.
    Your little man wrapped in Christmas lights is like the sweetest thing I've seen all week!
