I’ll bet that you thought that I’d have a strictly-gold Christmas this year. That I’d run around like a wild woman, spray painting everything in sight.

I can’t say that it won’t happen, but I will have to stop Queen Midas’ reign to share another holiday love of mine: Christmas trees.

Trees are so rustic, beautiful, and best of all – diverse! There are so many ways to incorporate a tree into holiday decor. 

I collected all of these projects from an incredible Pinterest Board called “Holiday Idea Exchange” – it’s a collaboration of some absolutely incredible ideas, and worth a perusal. And yes… maybe some of my stuff might be on there… waiting for more Christmas-crazy pinners! 

But first, some eye candy:

You will be amazed at how Virginia, from Fynes Designs, created these gorgeous ribbon trees. Click through to see her ingenious idea! 

If you’re looking for a non-traditional and colourful tree craft, try these pom-pom trees from Tatertots & Jello! 

And check this beauty out! Bev from Flamingo Toes shares this gorgeous snow globe necklace as a guest post on Tatertots and Jello! What a sweet little gift this is! 

And this wreath! I love this wreath! I need Mr. Suburble to get handy with the saw because I would love to have this hanging on our front door. Laura from Finding Home Online shares how to make this awesome Wood Slice and Burlap wreath. 

And lastly, this awesome free printable from Kellie on  Nest of Posies would be fantastic hung on the wall or as part of mantel decor. Head over and download it right now! 

Do these ideas not make you want to turn on the Christmas music? 

For me, it’s the Kenny and Dolly CD that really gets things feeling jolly in the house. 

Check out these awesome projects and let them inspire you. I know that I’m already feeling crafty just writing this post!
