A Feather Christmas Tree for the Guest Room

Recently I found this cute feather tree at Michaels.  Wasn't sure how I'd use it but once I got home, I knew just the place.



I placed the tree in my Guest bedroom. When I have guest during the holiday season, I always plug it in just before it gets dark. That way, when my guest are ready to retire for the evening, they are greeted by this view as they enter the room.




Last year, I bought this little feather tree too late in the season to decorate. It came pre-lit so it was pretty even without any ornaments. But as I shopped recently in Hobby Lobby, I kept an eye out for ornaments that I thought might work well. I wanted ornaments that would not take away from the airiness of this tree.


I found these darling, little glass "crystal" balls. They have snowflake designs etched into the surface.










It looks like someone has been blowing bubbles and they have all landed on the feather tree!



I also found this sweet "crystal" beaded garland to drape around the tree. It looks sort of pink in this pic but the garland is actually clear.



I needed just the right "topper" for my little tree...found this star ornament and removed the hanger.








The tree feels more "magical" in person than it does in these pics, but hopefully you get the idea.




Since I'm a decorating fiend at Christmas, I'll be sharing some more of my Christmas decorating each Thursday.
