The Winter Tree -Bird and Pinecone Ornaments

Since I bought a smaller tree, I decided to save my clip on bird ornaments, glass pinecones, and other somewhat nature inspired ornaments to set up a Winter Tree after Christmas this year. These pictures were from when I first set it up, since then I've picked up several more things on 50-75% clearance. The most notable, a very large, 12" white glittered snowflake to use as the topper, replacing the metal snowflake. Ornaments have been gathered through the years, some collectable, some vintage, some inexpensive-but cute:@)

I chose to push the white garland more into the branches,

hoping to mimic a bit of snow.

I didn't use all of my birds,

was aiming for a red, gold and white theme...

But then I found the vintage

blue and white wrapped snowflake ornaments at the thrift store...

Over the weekend Walmart had the blue and silver ornaments with deer scenes, 

yep, have since added them too:@)

Just a little something to add a little light and warmth

to the next month or so of cold weather!

Do what makes you smile and

Have a Happy Day:@)
