I am in the process of unpacking 100 plus boxes of holiday "stuff", which is a back breaking job and probably the part of my business, I like LEAST.
I am posting a few more trees from last year...you can click on the pictures and enlarge them and maybe see a little better what goes into the LOADED LOOK!!! Feel free to keep the questions coming and next week I will do another Q&A. Next week I will also show you an array of ornaments from Hobby Lobby that are GREAT BUYS, especially when they are half price, which is at least every two or three weeks.
This is one of my favorite trees....will try and get a better picture of it...It is loaded with every color ball....no other ornaments....and is on a balcony over looking the family room and another HUGE tree.
This tree is a slim tree that we just made a little fuller!!!
This is a collection of "girly things" that a we do for a client
A gorgeous tree in a fabulous home....that they moved into a couple of weeks before Christmas last year....
A beautiful family room tree
Fall is one of my favorite times of the year, but in my business, it is hard to find a spot for a pumpkin, when trees are everywhere.
Ok, lets have another GIVEAWAY!!! I have ornaments everywhere, so I need to give some away. I think they would look good on YOUR tree. Giveaways are one of my favorite things to do....Simple rules to be in the drawing.....Send a new blogger to the holiday blog...one that has not visited it before and just let me know they stopped by...and you are entered....and for every person NEW that you send my way, your name goes in the drawing again and again...plus they are entered in the giveaway too... I will draw on Sunday evening....that will give you a few
days and lots of chances to enter......
OK, lets make it a little MORE FUN.....This will be an ornament collection valued at $100.00! I am feeling very generous! Plus I want you to have your most beautiful tree EVER this year.

teresa, you don't need to enter but this is funny timing. just yesterday i sent my friend, becca, over here to check out your blog. she is a Christmas nut. if she could keep her tree(s) up all year, she would.
love looking at your pictures. amazing.
Hi Teresa, thanks for visiting my blog, this is my first time here (and I will visit your family blog tomorrow - I'm just about off to bed). I will for sure send some friends over here for a chance to enter your great giveaway. I have already made a Christmas binder and plan on decorating a lot more this year because we will be home for Christmas and not away visiting family. I want to put a tree in our game room this year too so I could use some extra ornaments ;-)
I'll be back soon, night night.
Hugs

ok...so My christmas tree is kind of small...but not too small. but we live in an apt. so It is small enough. Anyways...My mom and grandma bought me an ornament every year for christmas and my mom put them all into a box when I moved out and gave them to me. each on is sentimental and I could never part with any of them. When I put up my tree it looks pretty, and I could never be one of those people that puts all matchy match ornaments, just for the simple fact of my non matching mess of a an ornament collection means the world to be...and it basically embodies christmas to me, so how can I spruce up my tree and give it a more professional and together look without getting rid of my messy collection?
Oh I love your trees. So very beautiful. I am crazy about Christmas and make sure each member of our family gets a new ornament that pertains to something they did that year.
Anyway I'm rambling. I will try and get a post up about your giveway and hopefully I can send some visitors your way. I would love to be entered in your giveway and would be happy if some of my followers were to win.
Great blog!
I would LOVE to be entered in your giveaway and am going to post about your giveaway on my blog also. Christmas is my FAVORITE time of year. I'm going to be a follower of your blog also so I can get some new ideas for Christmas this year. With 4 kids & an awesome hubby, I love to make Christmas special for the family.
Gretta from grettajohns.blogspot.com sent me! I would love to be entered in your giveaway. Oh, new ornaments...I'm practically drooling! Fantastic blog!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! It's so much fun to meet new people on here! I love the song by Faith Hill. I cried the first few times that I heard it when it came out!
I ADORE the gingerbread tree! I had planned on one for my own kitchen last year, but had so much other STUFF, there was no room in the kitchen for a tree! Maybe this year.
These trees are gorgeous!!! I am going to win the giveaway.....:) Sending lots of people from Love Being A Nonny!
Oh, and are any of these trees pictured REAL? Just trying to see what I can do with a live tree.
what a fun giveaway!
LOVE BEING A NONNY sent me over to check it out :)

The trees are absolutely beautiful!
I love the bright colorful ones.
LOVE BEING A NONNY sent me over and it was well worth it.
Thanks for the comment on my blog hop! I'll be sure to send someone over here to be entered in the drawing...beautiful trees! :-)
Thanks so much for stopping by and the compliments!
I posted about your blog and I think your trees, talents are precious gifts...they will bring you before Kings...or at least the one that really is King!
Have a great day.
Blogged about your giveaway this AM as well as The Jesus Tree!

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. This is FABULOUS! I love Christmas and baby Jesus did change everything!!! LOVE IT! I will be sending others to your fabulous site and I look forward to seeing who wins the giveaway....
Blessings,
Amy
Hey, Love Being a Nonny sent me your way and I'm so glad! What beautiful trees! Your blog has now been added to my favorites! Hope we win!
Ohh, I am in the right place now...woohoooo! I LOVE Christmas but love trees even more. I usually put up at least one tree in every room..sometimes even 2 trees in some rooms. Even the bathrooms...lol. Growing up, my mom never got a tree, and we kids would have to wait until we went to grandma's house on the 24th to see a tree and decorations...I knew once I grew up and had my own home...things were gonna be different! I love all of your trees and especially loved the gingerbread one...so sweet! We also have a Jesus tree that resides in the family room so that really struck a chord with me. I will be sure to visit again!
Hugs ~ Angie

Wow! Love Being a Nonny sent me and I'm glad she did-beautiful.
Teresa I noticed you have beautiful bows on all of the trees. About how much ribbon do you use to make a one of them? I really enjoyed your pictures! Yesterday at the church where I work the music pastor was opening the boxes with this year's Christmas musical in them. We do a Singing Christmas Tree presentation every year and would you believe this year it's title is "A Baby Changes Everything" based on the Faith Hill song! I thought that was so neat because of your Christmas blog and I love that song.
I could use this. Thanks for the info i'll send some friends.
Thank you for stopping by my blog and your kind words!
Your trees are beautiful!
Just got an e-mail from The Royal Family telling me about this giveaway...those are some lovely trees! I can't wait to get my Christmas decorations out. We make it a family activity with everyone helping and popcorn (usually kettle yum!!) I think that it would be so awesome to win this!!
Thanks for stopping by my blog.
What a neat blog you have!
Good Evening!
Thanks for stopping by my blog and thanks for the invitation to view your Christmas blog. The Jesus Tree is an awesome idea! Christmas happens to be my daughter's FAVORITE time of year. I will definitely send her your way, and everyone's else I can find!
God Bless!

Wow....those trees are stunning. I'm lucky if I get my tree and ornaments out each year! My husband has promised to help me decorate this year. I'm not sure if that will be a help or a hinderance :-) Thanks for stopping by my blog and I'll definitely be back to keep up on the holiday decorating.
Thanks for the comment! I'm stopping by for the first time and I love it!

Carrie at Farming On Faith sent me on over.... and I have to say I would LOVE to have a Christmas tree in every room. (I didn't take down the tree in the game room til July...my neighbors probably think I'm nuts...)
THanks for stopping by my blog and for your sweet comment. Your site is so fun. I loved looking around at all the different trees!
Brandy King from The Buzz (The Royal Family) sent me over this way.
I would love to win some gorgeous ornaments!
Carrie from Farming on Faith brought me to your blog and I am so glad that I came by!
I love the trees that you have!
Hi. What beautiful trees you have. I found you via Gretta Johns blog (grettajohns.blogspot.com)
Thanks, Kate
KLSAustin1@aol.com
Just came from Mel4him (i think that is what it was) she blogged about your xmas ornaments. Your tree's are lovely
I've just popped over from Carrie's blog at Farming on Faith. For the past 10 years I have run Christmas decorating seminars out of my home, in friend's homes and at community venues (in NZ and Australia) It has been for love rather than money and I chose not to turn it into a business even though others urged me to.. had to give family and homeschooling first priority.At the seminars I share ideas for trees, tables, gifts and more. I also make my own bon bons and silk flower wreaths and garlands. I love to be inspired too and enjoyed looking at your abundant trees. I'm blessed to live in a forest setting with abundant greenery for decorating my home. This year I hope to offer some 'Creating Christmas' seminars via my blog. If you want to email me I can let you know about some NZ designers who decorate trees in a similar style to your own.
Please enter me; I haven't seen this blog before, and I love it! I came over from Carrie's at Farming on Faith - another wonderful blog.
Your trees are beautiful. I came over here from Tea with Tiffany because I saw your link on your comment.
I'm hoping to find a white tree that I can put on our front deck this year and do nothing but red ornaments on it! I love decorating the Christmas tree. Want to read a funny post about that? Check this out. http://homesteadersheart.blogspot.com/2008/12/control-freak-christmas-tree-decorating.html

WOW oh WOW! This is awesome. I would love to win (as would everyone else *grin*) This is awesome.
I am a new visitor that was referred by Carrie with Farming on Faith.

Thank you, Teresa, for sharing your great ideas with us! I adore Christmas and would love to win those ornaments!
Teresa, thanks for stopping my my blog! Christmas is my favorite and I hope that you'll get some visits from me...I would love to have some new ornaments! Decorating my tree is always super fun...each year I try to think of a new way to make my tree a designers showcase. Your blog is super cute!
I love your trees. What a wonderful talent you have been blessed with. I don't have a blog myself, but am a avid blog-reader. I can't wait to see more photos!
Thanks for sharing!

Does it count for an entry that this is my first time to visit your blog? I love Christmas. I was born on Christmas Eve ;)
I see nothing wrong with celebrating all year round!
Christmas already! That is what I thought when I read one of my other favorite blogs "U Create." I would love to enter for a chance at your giveaway. I love love love Christmas. Right now our Christmas tree decorations are just an assortment of ornaments hand-me-downs from both my husbands and my own childhood decorations. There is nothing wrong with that, but to have a well thought out and planned tree would be a fun change this year! You have a wonderful talent.
oops sorry it wasn't "U Create" that I read about your blog on. It was "This is the Year" Again sorry about that.
Oh so beautiful! Oh how I adore Christmas!
