Neutrals are the most popular colors among current decor trends, and that’s not surprising as they fit modern of modern, contemporary, Scandinavian and rustic interiors. How to decorate your Christmas tree to make it absolutely magical, show-stopping, jaw-dropping? I’ve prepared the coolest ideas you can steal right now, take a look! Neutral Christmas Trees This is not a sponsored post, however Balsam Hill did provide me with a tree free of charge to review.A Christmas tree is the main decoration at Christmas, it shows off your style, color scheme you’ve chosen and sets the tone in the space. Here is the full line up so you can follow along with Balsam Hill’s 12 Bloggers of Christmas : ) Vanessa from At the Picket Fence is sharing her Monogram Themed Tree today too, so hop on over there and see her beautiful tree! I simply adore the ornaments she made! : ) If you love this tree… you might love my Rustic Christmas Mantel too ) What theme are you going with this year? I am a Christmas Tree Junkie, so leave a link of your tree in the comments and I’d love to come take a look! So what do you think… did you know you could have a fake tree that looks so unbelievably real? Well… you might just have to check back later this week because maybe, just maybe Balsam Hill will be hosting a super fantastic giveaway! ) With this tree… where I put the ornament, there the ornament stayed! One of the biggest obstacles for me when decorating a Christmas tree is when you hang an ornament that has some weight to it, it pulls the branch way down… then it’s not where you want it and you have to keep moving it. The subtle color variations and feel of the branches are so realistic, but best of all… they hold up my ornaments. My other favorite thing about this tree: The Branches ….because of Balsam Hill’s True Needle Technology, the branches aren’t your every day artificial tree branches. Adding the bright white ornaments just filled that gap perfectly for me! I had the wood slices that screamed rustic, the gold glitter that screamed glam, but I felt like I needed a middle ground. They were my perfect bridge between the glam and the rustic feel. I was instantly drawn to these flat finished white bulbs I found at Hobby Lobby. I always love everything vintage and old too so that is how I came to my decision on a Rustic Glam Christmas Tree. I admit, I’m not usually a huge fan of gold, but I am loving it this year. My inspiration from this tree came from my slight obsession with gold this year. What you see wrapped around the bottom of this tree is the left overs from making that garland. In case you couldn’t tell from my garland, I am having a small love affair with drop cloth right now. I love love love how close these branches come to the floor, it really makes it feel real! Plus it allows me to look at my thrifty tree skirt. Ok, let’s dive in at my favorite part… the bottom of the tree. While I am by no means a professional photographer, I do love taking pictures! I think I’m a little partial to the nighttime photos… It’s like the lights come to life and start dancing around the Christmas Tree as if they are so happy to be out of their box! I’m happy too : ) Now I learned a lot about photographing Christmas Trees for this post… it.is.not.easy! I took pictures pretty much at every time of the day and finally I was able to figure it out. yes FAKE! Can you believe it? After going through Balsam Hill’s Artificial Christmas Tree Page to help me figure out which one would work for me I decided on the Shasta Fir Tree from Balsam Hill, and I am truly in love! If you aren’t familiar with Balsam Hill, not only do they sale gorgeous Christmas Trees, but you can also find beautiful garlands, wreaths, and more! You might have also seen their trees on Rachel Ray’s Show or in some of your favorite magazines, just sayin, they are quite fantastic! I will be keeping you up to date on those, don’t you worry! Rustic Glam Christmas Treeīefore I go on to tell you about this tree, I have to let you in on a little secret. There will be 12 lovely bloggers that will be revealing their beautiful trees for you throughout the week. Happy December everyone!
