Sounds lovely Lanne ... I'd like to change colours each year but have no room to store all the bits and pieces !!

On my home Christmas tree we have red and gold.

On our travels in the US and Canada there were some gorgeous decorations, so we bought a few small ones as souvenirs.

Santa often puts one in the stockings, so there are a few additions each year.

So, like you Julie-Ann, while I would like to change it up, they are too gorgeous to leave packed up.

However ...... at work, there was NO CHRISTMAS TREE. So, I took one in, and decorated it in silver and bright blue. I wrapped boxes of chocolates/nuts or biscuits in blue or silver paper, and it looks very pretty.
There are twelve staff, so there are twelve little presents, so I think tomorrow we will have to open two, and from then on one every work day leading up to Christmas, so the goodies can be shared at work.

All the staff were so happy to see a Christmas tree.

So I have had the best of both worlds with colours this year.

I always have a stack of silver and crystal / glass ornaments on my tree and then change the look year to year with a bit of colour. I have previously highlighted with red and gold, last year I added black and white and this year simply white. My wrapping and cards always coordinate with the tree theme!

I love red and teal Giggle_smile. I will keep an eye out for beachy decorations for you over the coming year. If I see anything I will let you know.
