Christmas is almost here and I've just barely gotten my tree decorated. This year, I am going for that colorful, quirky look I talked about here. I don't believe in perfect Christmas trees or serious ones for that matter.
I combined some cloth ornaments from my childhood, gorgeous antique beauties from Bernadette Breu (paper bells, cotton fruit, and pink mercury balls), homemade paper chains and a paper star. I love having a Christmas tree!
This December marks the 4th year of this blog. It's so fun to know I can come to this space everyday and visit with kindred spirits. Thanks as always for popping in here. Wishing you the Merriest Christmas!
Love,
Chelsea

Merry Christmas Chelsea! Look forward to seeing what you have to share in 2011.
Wishing I could be close to that beautiful, warm and nostalgic Christmas Tree. I love the old-fashioned paper chaines. Many warm thoughts going your way as you start another year writing your blog. I came on late but I eagerly anticipate opening {frolic} each day!
i love it! i totally agree with how trees should be decorated, and yours looks completely delightful. i love the simplicity of the paper star on top and all the color–you have inspired me to try maybe crocheting some little ornaments and to perhaps look for some pretty vintage ones.
also! congratulations on four years! i’m so glad you are here, it’s one of my favorite places 🙂
Merry Christmas. Thank you for the wonderful Frolic of 2010. Best wishes for the year ahead
No serious Christmas trees are ever fun. I love your paper chains! Merry Christmas!
paper chains are the best! i could make them for hours. hope you had a great holiday!
I can’t believe it’s been 4 years… congrats! Hope we get to work together soon (and that your New Year starts off wonderfully!)
Very pretty. Hope you had an excellent Christmas.
