WELCOME TO FEATHERED NEST FRIDAY HOLIDAY



O Christmas tree...O Christmas tree...


I found this darling little silver tinsel tree the other day.
It looked so lonely when I found it, sitting on the shelf...
waiting for someone to love it.


It's wee feathery branches of tinsel holding brightly colored
ornaments and lights

I am not a tree with colored lights kind of girl...
I am not even a tinsel kind of girl...
I think that's why my husband looked at me like I was insane when I found this cutie
and put it into my cart.


I love it's vintage feel- and a but of glitzy glam too!
I kind of like the lights-
the colors add a bit of cheer to my bathroom at night but it would be easy enough to change them
as well as find some delightful white bulbs to decorate it.


I took the plastic stand off and placed it in this vintage chicken wire basket
filled with shells and ornaments.


A tiny charming starfish makes for the perfect topper!

It kind of reminds me of a little Charlie Brown type tree-
and my husband says it reminds him
of the tree I picked out the first Christmas we were together.


We went out into the mountains to find the perfect tree.
I picked a small little feathery, scraggly one...
So cute!
Sparse little branches, dainty in size and so much charm!
I loved it!
This little guy is just about 3 feet tall.
The perfect size for the little chest that sits between the sinks in my bathroom.


It came from Target,
it was the display at 30% off for $14.00
with sparkly lights and little ornaments included.


Loving it.

An ornament wreath on the mirror above my tub and a few shiny ornaments to the chandelier...
bring a little Christmas cheer to my bathroom!
