GETTING THE PERFECT CHRISTMAS TREE // Lifestyle , Decor, how to


THE CHRISTMAS TREE.. 

THE MOST IMPORTANT FEATURE FOR THE HOLIDAYS.


.

A BEAUTIFUL FRESH CUT TREE IS REALLY SPECIAL, FIRST FOR THE SMELL - LIKE HAVING THE OUTDOORS IN  YOUR HOME.

I CAN RECALL AS KID GOING OUT TO FIND THE SPECIAL TREE AND SETTING UP  WITH LIGHTS AND ICICLES WAS SO EXCITING. BUT MOM WAS NOT SO EXCITED AFTER THE NEEDLES CAME OFF AND LEFT A MESS OR THE CAT WOULD JUMP ON IT TO GRAB THE HANGING DECORATIONS .  YES SOME FUNNY MEMORIES.

SO FINDING A TREE AND KEEPING IT FRESH AND BEAUTIFUL THROUGHOUT THE HOLIDAY SEASON IS THE CHALLENGE.







BIG  OR SMALL  SUCH A WONDERFUL THING TO ENJOY OVER THE HOLIDAYS!!







TIPS TO HELP YOU FIND 
THE PERFECT FRESH TREE & LASTING LONGER-




  1. THE NEEDLES DO NOT BREAK IF BENT.
  2. UNDER THE BARK  IT SHOULD BE WHITE GREEN, NOT BROWNISH
  3. STORING THE TREE IS MOST IMPORTANT , KEEP IT COOL AND MOIST. STORE OUTSIDE TILL TIME TO SET UP.
  4. KEEP THE NETTING ON IT- THIS HELPS IT KEEP MOISTURE IN NEEDLES SO THEY DONT DRY OUT. PREVENTS EVAPORATION.
  5. KEEP OUTSIDE IN TUB OF WATER, COVER SO NOT EXPOSED TO SUN.
  6. WATERING. A 2 M/6 FT TREE NEEDS 2-4 LITERS WATER DAILY.

SO NOW WE CAN ALL HEAD OUT AND FIND THAT PERFECT TREE.

CASUAL SUMMER LOOK//fashion , styling

 Doing Denim  I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable.  For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short.  I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days.  Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it.  Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets.  There are so many ways to style a denim dress.  A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses  I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck.

My old pair has some scratches on them sadly.  The two pieces I did get I absolutely love . Firstly a linen blend blazer in cream shade. It goes with so many things so can’t wait to spring to wear it again.  Also the new wrap dress I bought in spring.  The color I loved , the fit and style is nice to wear for dinners out, parties or weddings. A very versatile piece.   The other item was from a previous year but I had forgotten about it  was a nice surprise. I wore it over Christmas holidays. and got compliments on it . A knit top with sparkle accents.  It was so comfortable and warm . Absolutely loved it.  ...
