Since the living room has gone sleek and very modern I feel the beloved tree (that has been shown here a few times) is no longer in keeping
I now have to decide and more importantly find a suitable replacement
A green tree is out unless it perhaps has a snow effect on it and all the lights, baubles etc will need to be silver, black with possibly the odd flash of purple if its to match the room
I am seriously considering abolishing a tree altogether and sticking with other bits and bobs dotted about
We have had a black tree for the conservatory over the last couple of years, looks cool with gold and/or purple decorations and lights. From memory of the photos you posted, one like it might suit your living room, Yorko. If we use it this year I'll post a photo up.
Whilst I’ve redecorated I stayed with my usual shabby chic decor. I just bought a few different baubles. I love those cone shaped trees. Pre lit. You just plonk them down and plug them in. Marvellous. I have a red one in the Hall I bought in France years ago. Mr Tink isn’t keen but he don’t live here so he can wind his neck in. I’m tempted to buy a silver one for the dining room. So easy. And I really like em.
