One of my favorite challenges on this planet is the Michaels Dream Tree Challenge! This is the third year we’ve had the opportunity to participate. The first year I created my Peppermint and Snow Christmas Tree, the second year Becky created this beautiful Christmas tree, and this year I decided to give my mom her dream Christmas tree!
We were talking about the color turquoise in her living room and decided to go with a beautiful peacock theme. To my surprise, while I was shopping for tree supplies I found these gorgeous ornaments and knew mom had to have these!
For the tree topper I always like to go with something a little bit different…
I love the whimsical look of these gold and green Christmas picks and just simply shoved them on top!
As for the garland…
I used some wide gold tulle ribbon – I love how easy it is to shape and it makes such a great filler!
Mom was thrilled to have her new Christmas tree and it looks amazing in her living room!
I think decorating Christmas trees has to be one of my favorite things to do…EVER.
Make sure to check out all of the amazing blogger trees below!
