So I've finally finished my Christmas tree...and I have to say, I'm really happy with it. I love the combination of Aqua and Red...so that was my theme this year, along with my favorite coastal touches. And let's not forget the flocking which I love so much...I may never go back to a traditional tree again. Or maybe I will have to have two trees next year.
It is filled with starfish, seashells, red coral, apples, jingle bells and other beautiful ornaments. I think this tree reminds me of a really large, beautifully wrapped Christmas present. You'll notice the tree is not decorated on the bottom third...and has nothing around it other than a burlap tree skirt. That's because I have some very curious cats who have lived under the tree since I put it up last week. I decided to not tempt them by decorating it at the bottom where they could do some major destruction.
Hope you had a wonderful weekend...and while I'm a little late to the party, I'm linking up to:

Your tree is gorgeous! LOL about the cats. Ours love sleeping on the velvet tree skirt, but surprisingly they haven't messed with the ornaments yet.
Wow, your tree is amazing, Debbie! What a great color combo, I can see why your furry friends are so tempted:) I adore the mercury glass ornaments, and the red coral adds a fun and unexpected touch! Oh, and I love the beaded aqua ornaments, too! Bet you will hate taking this gorgeous tree down!!
