Dreaming of a White Christmas

I know, I know...it's not even Halloween. But I found these pictures yesterday and I knew I wouldn't be able to sit on them for the next two months. Basically, it comes down to this: I love me a beautiful, tall, and graceful Christmas tree. I love the smell as it permeates the house making you think about your family, yummy pies, and the thrill of wrapped presents. But that same smell....unfortunately gives someone some respiratory issues. A fake tree just seems like the saddest solution, doesn't it? Until I saw these pictures of an awesome vintage style fake white tree. Ordinarily I would not be into a fake tree, but I think I could get behind this.

I am definitely going to be on the look out for some awesome beading and gold ornaments in the weeks to come.

  1. I've been meaning to pick up a white christmas tree for a while. I say do it! They're fabulously tacky-chic.

  2. We have a small sort of half white/half green one we got from urban last year. But now I feel I need a huge all white one!

  3. My grandparents had a fake one (not white; regular). But the fact that it was fake was totally lost in the joy of unpacking and putting up all the rest of the ornaments (some over 50 years old!) and this amazing platform they put up under the tree with a tiny intricate nativity scene and then a snow-covered town. You can make fake work if you give everything around it enough character. Which i have a feeling you can :)
