It’s exactly one month after Christmas. I find it hard to believe. This past year we used our white tree, opposed to the green tree for Christmas. Here is where we started.
We put a bunch of ornaments on it and it could have used more. My feeling towards Christmas trees is typically “More is better.” I can always add ornaments. You need a good mix of color and reflective. I like clear and/or mirrored ornaments shoved in first to create depth and a reflective surface. Then, I was able to find around seven boxes of Christopher Radko’s reissued Shiny Brite, plus The Mister’s mother found some older glass ornaments.

Of course, we had my other Radko ornaments and family ornaments to add. Then, I found some glittered curly sticks, red bows and some clear ball picks. I decided “Why not?” and loaded it on.
Here are some up close photos:
This is probably my favorite photo.
Next year, I will be better about taking better count of what we put on it. I’ll go for a step-by-step run down.
R.A. We have Radko in common! Some of mine are 27 years old (Yikes!)
Your tree has so much depth and texture – I think the white is the best for showing off a collection so full of color.
Cheers!
