I have found there are three different camps when it comes to tree toppers……..
THE SIMPLE
THE PERSONAL MEMORIES
THE ELABORATE/OVER-THE-TOP
Shall
we take a look at an example of each so you can see which category you
fall under, or maybe you have your very own personal category that I
have not mentioned.
THE SIMPLE
THE PERSONAL MEMORY
Remember the silver tinsel covered stars?
OR
THE ELABORATE/OVER-THE-TOP
Now that you have see all three options
I thought it would be fun to explore some different options for tree
toppers just in case some of you need a little inspiration…..
Perfect for those doing a woodland or rustic Christmas tree.
This
would be wonderful if you are doing a Snowy theme or a Nordic
Christmas. A cozy sweater knit covered star. I just noticed they hung it
upside down, but to each their own!
These are the kind of tree toppers I grew up with. You can still find the vintage toppers at antique stores.
So many people in blogland seem to love burlap so this one is for them!
I just had to share this one!!
I remember the very first time I saw a top-hat on a tree over on Pat’s blog, Back Porch Musings!
The
entire tree was done so appropriately for this unique tree topper. For
those of you that are not familiar with Pat’s blog, I highly recommend
you start following her.
She always does just the right amount of embellishing in her Holiday décor. A real treat not to be missed.
Karianne over on Thistlewood Farm blog, did not put her tree topper on the tree, but hung it ever so gently hovering above the tree.
After all a snowflake falls down from the sky!
I am a big fan of initials/monograms so this one is quite appealing to me.
Clever use of pipe cleaners, and I love how it sparkles, Just another take on the star tree topper.
Being
a bird lover this tree topper is just so sweet to me. I might add a bit
of snowy sparkles just to make it show up more on my tree.
For all of you Tea and McKenzie Child’s enthusiast.
My Personal Category
I fall into two of the categories:
Sweet memories.....For
years we had a little cardboard, and felt Santa on the top of our tree,
but over the years Santa lost a few of his parts so we had to retire
him.
I opted for a simple white star……
Then last year I decided to use a Moravian Star theme, and I found the perfect tree topper for my tree……
What camp do you fall under, Simple, Personal Memories, or Elaborate?
