SPORT THEMED CHRISTMAS TREE

Happy Friday!  I hope everyone had a blessed day yesterday with family and friends spending Thanksgiving with one another.  We had a special day with our son and daughter.  We did venture out into the stores but will make today our full Black Friday adventure.

This holiday weekend I thought I would be putting away the Christmas decorations, but my son had a different thought.   Todd loves his St. Louis Cardinals, so one year when I spotted the team’s Christmas ornaments I went, should I say went overboard?  You betcha!  He had his tree sitting out for me to decorate for him. 🙂

On today’s blog I will be sharing his tree!

Let’s get started decorating his sport themed tree.

He has a 6 ft multi color lite tree.  I fluffed the tree and added another 100 strands of lights to make it brighter.

I always start with my topper.  We purchased red, white and navy picks from Wal-mart.  I added the picks to the top of the tree.

I am using three different sizes of ribbon.  First ribbon is the thicker of the three.  I cut about 8 ft strips and tucked into the tree every 12 inches or so.

The second ribbon I am using is a thin red ribbon, I am making a curly long strip placing an end at the top letting it drop downward.

The last of the three ribbon is a thinner navy one.  I spun it right off the spool and let it lay as it came off.

Adding ornaments.

After having the ornaments on I decided that the top needed something.

I decided to add a mini bat he had laying around in his office.  I wired it to the top and added a red bow.  I think that topped the tree.  Don’t you think?

Here is my son’s 2018 Christmas tree.
