a tree for all seasons

17 years ago

Jane's link to pictures of cornupcopias led me to this site, and then to the gal's Tree for All Seasons. She shows a close-up of it decorated for each. Its wonderful.

I'm not sure I could deal with a 9 ft tree for ANY season, LOL, but love the idea for a small tree.

If this link doesn't take you right to the tree's page, then scroll down her first page and you'll see a small photo link to it.

hugs, Karen

    Karen,

    So funny, I expected to just see trees on this site. So of course I start browsing and enjoying all the other things. Like I was Lost In Outter Space for a moment. Thank goodness the light finally came on and I found the trees.LOL She is talented and I enjoyed her site and will go back again.

    I will try to make some bats out of black foam and who knows I might even get some BOO candles made. Her trees are wonderful and I enjoyed looking so much. TFS

    OMG! Karen, now look what you have done! I'll be wanting to browse that site all day! Matt & Sheri used to have a show on HGTV that was wonderful. I hated it when they took it off. They are very creative and she often showed how to make things--and would get Matt to try it too! ;o)

    I didn't know they had a website! This will be so fun! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Oh, almost forgot--yes those trees are a fun idea! I agree a big one would be a bit much, but gosh I sure love the branch ones several of you create.

    Karen, thanks so much for sharing this site! What lovely pics and ideas! So many beautiful things to create, so little time! Nice to dream though....

    You guys have to give Sly Slinkey some of the credit. LOL.
    If she hadn't posted the link for me to look at cornucopias, then I wouldn't have found Shari's site. I browsed it a long time last night, and saved it of course.
    Luvs, I don't remember them having a show! I'd have watched it for sure. I love the idea of using cookie cutters as templates and cutting stuff out of foam. Especially would like to do some bats for next season.
    I've looked at her re-decorated tree several times, she just does a beautiful job on it each time. I think the winter look is gorgeous. I was going to leave up a small tree last year and do that...not sure what happened to my plan. Probably still on my Too Long To Do List if I know me. Maybe this year I'll try it with a table tree. Depending on a certain orange cat I know of course. Wish my other 4 kitties good behavior would rub off on the little tornado.

    hugs, Karen

    Ok, we'll give some credit where credit is due. Don't want anyone pouting before Christmas (Sly). This is a great site. Thanks you two for coming up with it.LOL

    Oh, that's a great site! Thanks for posting the link.
    I love the idea of holiday/seasonal trees.

    Karen,

    I'm with Luvs! I adored their show on HGTV and was brokenhearted when they took it off. I had no idea they had a website...They're very talented and believe me, watch their website--you all will find tons of great things.

    Very pretty! I used to watch them, too..
    Karen, I had a 9 ft tree in the den , and it was a nightmare... needed a really high ladder to do the top..not fun!
    I wouldn't like a tree up all year. I tried it with a smaller one..made it to St Pat's then I got sick of it!

    The Matt & Sheri site, how fun! I've just signed up there, as I really enjoyed their show that was on HGTV. But, that said, I so don't like year-round trees. The idea of keeping a Christmas tree up all year ~big or small~ and decorating it for various other holidays makes me shudder! I'm not criticizing anyone who likes them or who has one, but I don't care for them myself.

    I discovered their site this past summer and have enjoyed it so much - loved their show Room by Room on HGTV - I also have one of their decorating books.

    I have a 4ft tree that I call my seasonal tree and change the decorations out about 4 or 5 times a year. This is my fall decorations......

    That little white tree is very pretty, Lynne!

    Kathleen and Lynn, I'm not sure I'd like having a Christmas pine type tree up all year. But one less "Xmas-y", if that makes sense? My daughter has a neat vine tree, about 3 feet high, she brings out at Christmas...but I love it and would like that to decorate maybe. She tried to find me on sale last year but no luck.
    I don't know if y'all remember the pair of tiny urn trees I often use on my familyroom mantle during some holidays? But last year I did them for Christmas, Valentines, St Pat's, and Easter. I don't know why I stopped there, LOL. Here is one done several ways.
