Christmas tree inspiration



The most beautiful time of the year is upon us again; hot summer days by the beach, evening BBQ's with Friends & an abundance of Christmas joy & spirit. My favourite part, however, is the lead up to  Christmas day. The shopping trips, menu planning, where are we having Christmas this year & with which side of the Family?? But the best part for me is the Festive season decorating; organising the tree, deciding on the colour scheme & the Christmas lunch/ dinner table settings.

I know quite a few people will already be well under way in their 2012 Christmas decorating, however we were a little late off the mark this year, and are slowly getting our tree decorated and looking fabulous.

When in need of a little Christmas inspiration and styling tips, I can’t think of anyone better to turn to, then Martha Stewart, the Queen of decorating & entertaining. Martha Stewart is one woman who has always inspired me, with her colourful history, and her passion for creating Beautiful homes and entertaining in style. I thought I would throw a little Martha Stewart Christmas tree decorating inspiration your way, with a selection of my favourite trees displaying enchanting embellishments, garlands & ornaments.




Gold, silver and a little winter wonderland




Traditional red, green & celestial ornaments





A scheme of red & white





A tree trimmed with all things winter. Snow flakes, Ice skates & white doves





Love the fresh, coastal colour scheme in shades of blue and crisp green



These decorating schemes are all so different, and quite far from the Traditional colours of red, green & tinsel. Decorating for Christmas is such a fun creative process, and I have had a blast & quite a funny adventure transforming our pine Christmas tree into its current state of fabulousness!
