Madison has a Ocean Theme tree going on....lots of sea stars and bubbles and blue fish. I think I should of maybe found an old fishing net to cover the bottom of the stand.
Li'l One has a doll theme going on in her tree. It matches her room. Her bedding is of doll dressess and you can see in this photo to the left some of her antique dressess on the wall. She also has a few fairies on the tree. And as you can see....ahhh...I had to get the Milk Maid from Anthropologie.....well...it was 50 percent off!!! How could I not....Here is a close up of one of the fairies, she has strawberry slippers on.
Here is the Milkmaid under the tree, I thought you could see better. In making it real......I ordered this online and I think next time I will make sure I go to the brick and mortar store because I think she looks like she has had too much eggnog and passed out in a snowbank. Her make up is smeared....maybe there is more to that Milk maid story...maybe more like a French maid.....that hussy. Anyways...my point is you could pick out a better crafted ornaments seeing them up close and personal. She was my favorite of all of the ornaments the had at the store. Also I think my daughter pink is a little too bright and if overwelms the ornaments so you can't really appreciate them. I don't think that it is the same for green tree. Maybe we should see if we can find a white tree or a very soft baby pink tree. Typing out loud here...

Your girls' trees are so sweet and girly. I have 3 boys, and the youngest has his own tree on his bedside table. It's cute and all, but I just love pink and girly things. I saw that same pink tree on sale at Michaels and considered getting it for my own room (Hubby would just LOVE that!) But, unless I was planning on putting it on top of the baskets of (unfolded, but clean) laundry, it didn't make much sense. I actually plugged in the one on display, and thought it was a bit too PINK when lit, but before looking for a new tree altogether, try replacing just the bulbs with white ones. That's what I had thought about doing. Wow...this sure has turned out to be a long comment...I'm sorry about that. Anyway...A Very, Merry Christmas to You!
