Oh Christmas Tree
The tree decked in silver with touches of black.
A couple of years ago my daughter was working retail and the store was going to throw away all of these pretty silver balls left over from the holiday decor. She's been around me long enough to know trash vs treasure. So she brought home boxes of them. Love that girl!
Have you noticed how difficult it is to photograph reflective ornaments? Hard not to make a self portrait.
This year we added black tulle, beads and ornaments. $20 for a little different look.
Our tree is skinny but tall. I love tall trees.
Podso recently wrote a post and asked, "do you decorate the back of your tree?" Thought maybe I'd get by without it but the mirror tells all. Yikes! I see some big gaps.
Reflections...
May your Christmas be merry and bright!

This is beautiful, Tammy! I also love the diamond shaped paper you have used to wrap boxes with.
Normally I don't decorate the back of my tree because it is in a corner, but after taking pics this year, I have some naked spots. Were gonna make do tho! See ya at the party.
It it tall and splendid in all that silver glory. Those silver balls were treasure indeed. Smart dear daughter. Happy Christmas.
Your tree is beautiful, Tammy! I love the black & silver combination. I also spied the black & white harlequin wrapping paper & I love it.
I love the unique colors you used. Looks wonderful.
That is one amazing tree. LOVE the silver touches!!
Oh and I cannot believe you already have your presents wrapped. I am so jealous...and they are soooo pretty too!
So pretty! My niece is using those same colors for her tree this year. Merry Christmas to you too!
Oh your tree is just gorgeous :) love the way the mirror reflexes the lights and shiny Christmas balls!!
There's nothing like black and white. Love it with the silver. Simply beautiful. Your entire room is dreamy, Tammy. I love it.

Your tree is so elegant!
Its a shame, but in a good way for those who can take advent age of it, how many really nice decorations retail just g throws out! I have the most luxurious gold garland because my Mom got before a retailer threw it out. I mean commercial gar lad, like the silver balls, is better stuff than they let Joe Average buy!
What a sophisticated tree, Tammy! I love the black and silver, and the adorable presents under the tree. Looks terrific!
What a pretty tree. I love when they're stuffed with ornaments! The black and white wrapping paper is a nice touch, too. Thanks for visiting my blog today. I'm now a follower.
Very very pretty! Love the black and white.

When I first read "black" on a Christmas tree, I wasn't so sure. But combined with silver, the black on your tree looks fabulous! I especially like how you wrapped the gifts too. It all works so beautifully in the room!
The best tree I have seen yet. Totally adore the black touches and the silver. Goes perfectly in your room. Bet it took a while too but it was definitely worth it. Enjoy your weekend!
Your tree is so pretty! I love the mirror shots!
Isn't this a wonderful time of year!
Best Christmas wishes,
Natasha.
Beautiful Tammy!! I love the black and white.
I want to redo all my decorations to white and silver!! I have so much red!
Love your living room!!!
Oh Tammy!!! Your tree is gorgeous! I LOVE it so much. It is very glamorous, very shiny and so lovely, even the back!
I love the reflection in the mirror, very nice!
Hugs, Cindy
Oh it is fabulous! My son does the same thing, he drags things home, he knows I will do something with them...Love our babies! The silver balls were a welcome treat, I think they especially love when they see what we do with their finds!

Looks beautiful, Tammy.
Happy Holidays!
Such a classy tree!

Wow you are a talent there girl! I think that tree looks stupendous in all its tall skinny glory. One can't be too rich or too skinny they say.
Love the black & silver! Your tree looks so dynamic and gorgeous! I would have never thought to use black in my holiday decor. Love it! Thanks for sharing.
So very pretty. I love it.
Thanks for the "nod" to my blog. Your tree is beautiful... and you definitely need the back decorated. You get even more of the beauty with the mirrors! So nice! Have a good weekend,
Wow that's a gorgeous tree! And the wrapping paper is perfect!

I can't believe they were just going to throw out these beautiful sliver balls. These are useful for so many crafts. I can think of so many ideas. It's crazy what people throw out these days.
