Saturday Night... Before Christmas | Disco Ball Christmas Tree Inspiration

It’s time! I’m super excited to be a part of Casa Watkins’ Christmas Tree blog hop this year! Welcome to everyone who is arriving from Casa Watkins and Rebecca Propes! And make sure you head over to Au Petit Salon tomorrow morning to kick off tomorrow’s blog hop posts! Scroll to the bottom to check out all the posts from the blog hop!

We’ve had our white Christmas tree for a few years now and I was feeling a little uninspired at the beginning of the month. I thought maybe this year we’d let the white tree hibernate and head to a tree farm to do a real tree this season. But then I had an idea: DISCO CHRISTMAS. Is this just an excuse to buy a ridiculous amount of disco balls? Maybe. Am I already scheming things to do with all these disco balls after the tree comes down for the season? Absolutely.  To be fair, I do wish this tree was even MORE over the top, so this top image has a few extra disco balls photoshopped on (I mean, really, I could go for even more, but let’s calm down, Liz).  

I’m always torn between having a faux tree and a real one, a green tree and a non-traditional tree, a sentimental ornament tree, and a pretty beautifully designed tree.  Growing up we usually had a “pretty” faux tree in the living room, and then a live tree upstairs in the family room that had colorful lights and all our fun family sentimental ornaments and I really loved that.  Unfortunately, for now, our house is too small to accommodate two trees, but someday. Someday.
