Today I am linking up at
honey were home for a feature on Christmas trees! Every year we get a real tree as I am a fake tree hater. That is until we got a beautiful fake one for free from my in-laws this year. While I couldn't go totally cold turkey (we ended up with a real tree as well) it does look pretty beautiful in our living room window. I decided to go with a "rustic glam" theme of wood ornaments mixed with mercury glass ornaments. I was pretty excited with the outcome...

I wove in some burlap ribbon from JoAnns craft store but I think I need one more strand. I purchased all the ribbon they had in stock so ill be going back this week for more.
