Candy Cane Lane

"Candy Cane Lane" Tree

December 11, 2008

I worked this afternoon for a good while after work on my "Candy Cane Lane" tree. Tiffani came up to see it and ended up helping me finish decorating it. We got it done in half the time with her on one side of it and me on the other, decorating and making sure everything was evenly distributed. It turned out soo full. I wasn't expecting that at all. Originally, I planned to use a pink tree, but I just didn't like it. Earlier this week I had bought a red tree and I ended up using it. I love how it turned out. Ryan came in the den and goes "Whoa. It's red. It's busy". LOL But he liked it too. Red is his favorite color, so I knew I couldn't go wrong with it.

The tree is in our den, above our entertainment center. This is next to our fireplace as well, and the colors all matched so well. This makes Tree #9 for us this year. I've still got so many trees I would like to get done. I want to do the Disney tree, my Heth's angels tree- this one should be very simple. It's decorations done by Tiffani and my nieces and nephews, a Victorian tree (which is what I may use the discarded Pink Tree for now.-- Maybe one day a Shabby chic tree from this tree? Hmmm), and the Nascar tree. So, my plate still looks to be pretty full of decorating, but that's okay I wouldn't have it any other way. Just gotta get it done before Christmas. lol Next year, I'm starting way earlier. :)
