Pink Saturday and Seasonal Sundays

Welcome friends to another Pink Saturday. I hope all my American friends enjoyed a bountiful feast on Thanksgiving Day.

Today I thought I would share with you my Christmas tree and mantel in the living room. Last year I did my tree in mostly traditional colours. I still have a bit of tweaking to do but you get the general idea. This year my tree is in shades of pink, silver, gold, and white, and my hubby doesn't mind a bit!

  2. Both your tree and mantle are lovely, Sandi. All very cozy and inviting looking..love your Teacup tree ornament as it was the one that "popped" out at me right away.

  3. Beautiful decor! The pink is lovely. It reminds me of my grandmother's flocked white tree with pink ornaments. I think she was a bit ahead of her time. I don't recall seeing anything other than the traditional red/green back then.
