DAY 2 of Ornaments!YAY!
This one is definitely a favorite.
One word: Aqua
For the non-traditional,
an aqua and white color scheme

is breath-taking in its simplicity.
For this ornament,
I placed a bleached bottle brush tree inside the ornament.
(Don't ask how. Tedious. And may have had me muttering a few words.)

Glitter...
Faux snow...
A few pearl beads...
Sprinkled inside.
(That part was a snap.)

I love the contrast between the off-white of the bottle brush
and the pure white of the faux snow.
I wrapped a light aqua ribbon around the ornament topper and glued on a bow of the same color.
The bow is embellished with a simple white button.

To hang the ornament, I attached a loop of white crocheted lace.
So cute!
And I am super digging the aqua and white!
How about you?
Do you like more traditional colors of Christmas
or do you like to change it up a bit?

This is sooo beautiful, I want it! My sitting room is done in aqua and white. It is my favorite color combo! Beautiful job. And the tree looks very hard to fit inside the ornament! I would be saying some bad words too, lol.

I love the aqua and white. Such beautiful and classy colors together. I actually used those same colors on my tree last year along with old black and white family photos clipped to the branches. Probably my favorite tree ever.

B.E.A.UUUUUtiful. :)
ReplyDeleteI just finished some along the same lines as the ones you showed us yesterday - but very different too. LOL.
So pretty and dainty looking. Beautiful displayed also:)
