These are before and after pics from 2009 of the smaller of my two trees, as well as close ups of a few ornaments. I put up a 7 1/2 foot artificial tree with white lights, usually on the upstairs bridge, and a 9-10 foot real tree with colored lights, in the family room, every year. The smaller tree, here, is for my collection of Swarovski ornaments, and has a snowflake theme. Journaling says: My Swarovski tree -- decorated in crystal, white, and silver. The only color is navy blue from the ribbons that hang the annual Swarovski snowflakes. I have every one from 1993 on. I was even able to find a perfect skirt - white organza over satin with silver & crystal beaded snowflakes.

I should take some updated photos of this tree one of these years. I've accumulated quite a few more white, silver, or crystal ornaments for this tree since these were taken, included 6 more years of Swarovski snowflakes. Also, my dd has started buying me the new annual Swarovski ball ornaments, so those go on this tree too.

This is for the December Music Challenge - Title Category. I used 'White Christmas' because I usually refer to this tree as my white tree. I did the blue, silver, and bling twist.

Also for the VLB Challenge to scrap Christmas decorations.

The bg pp's here are glittered. The doilies are metallic silver. The bling flourishes are Recollections, as are the glitter alpha stickers. I outlined the small photos with black Sharpie for definition.
