It's the second week of Susan's Deck the Halls party at http://thoughtsfromovertherainbow.blogspot.com/ . Mary is also hosting Mosaic Monday at http://dearlittleredhouse.blogspot.com/. Lets have fun, get some decorating ideas, and visit them both and all their participants!
I am taking you today to our dining room. We have a bold wallpaper there with birds. I call them birds of paradise but some say they are peacocks. Anyway, it started my peacock obsession since I did not really want to take the time to peel off the wallpaper and replace it. Here's a smaller green tree with green lights.
I adorned it with a few peacock ornaments.
and inserted peacock feathers in it

You probably have seen my snowman ice cream shop keeper on Pink Saturday. I kept it on the dining room buffet with a bigger snowman. Doesn't he look like he is the supervisor with a whip? LOL! That little snowman better do his job right!
Thank you all for visiting. Please forgive me if I do not respond to comments right away. I am sailing on the Caribbean sea aboard the biggest ship in the world, the new Oasis of the Seas enjoying its maiden voyage! Check out the ship at http://oasisoftheseas.com/, it's huge! If placed vertically, it is higher than the Empire State building; it is larger than Queen Mary 2, it has a
Central Park place, a boardwalk complete with a carousel, 2 rock climbing, zip line, water skiing, 25 shops, etc.

What a pretty tree, Christine! I love your collection of peacock ornaments! And your little snowmen are so cute! Have a wonderful week!...hugs...Debbie
ReplyDeleteWow, that tree glows! I may have to try one with colored lights again. I've used white for so long that I've forgotten how pretty it can be to add color. I hope you are having the best time ever!!

Welcome home from your cruise!
ReplyDeleteYour little tree looks beautiful. The colors are so exquisite together. I don't think I would want to take the wallpaper down either, LOL! It makes a great backdrop for your tree though.
The flamingos in your previous post are gorgeous! What stunning creatures they are, I bet they're ornery little birds somehow. Maybe I'm wrong!
