It's not really the Victorian Christmas tree I was going for, but I think it turned out okay. And Mom who didn't like the thought of the "candle" lights actually likes them. :)
Thank you. :) The lights were kind of annoying to put on. lol... I bought them about two years ago and I haven't seen them since. Thankfully I had enough for the tree. Even one box left over. :p This I think is my 5 year of doing a different theme for the tree. I think next year I will repeat my Disney tree. :p
The year my good friend Jerry was killed in Iraq, we did a red white and blue tree in honor of him. I have to admit, it was beautiful and just what I needed to get thru the Holiday knowing he was gone.
I am betting your lights snapped onto the branch, right...?? I remember many years ago, when I was a kid my Mom had those kinds of lights and we hing them on our tree. They are cool and add such a special touch.
My tree is a mish mash of decor. I have vintage family decorations I recall putting on the tree from my childhood. There's new stuff mixed in there too. It's just all popped on there. Afraid I just don't have the 'gene' or whatever it takes to come up and make something as nice as yours!
