Well,
here we are, end of the week and the final stage of decorating the Christmas
tree. What’s missing? Lights and Garland!!! Well, as you know, we sort of did our tree a
little backwards, but we ‘re sure when you get ready to decorate your tree, you
will start with the stand and tree, then go from there.
It’s
hard to pick just a few shops with lights and garland when there is so much,
but here are some old and some new, some traditional and some
contemporary. And some that bring back
great childhood memories for me. So let’s
get started ~ let’s add some lights to our tree. (just click the names under the photo to go
to their shops)

| Ribbons and Retro |
And
don’t forget the spare bulbs

| Albrechts Antiques |
 |
| Kiffys |
 |
| VintageGoodness1 |
 |
| Holiday Legacies |
 |
| Industrial Days |
 |
| Just Too Much |
And
now for some garland
 |
| Roque Valley Vintage |
 |
| Christmas Notions |
 |
| Mrs Molly |
 |
| Cutie Popper |
 |
| The Old Block House |
 |
| Harts Closet |
 |
| Treasured Memory Lane |
And
if you don’t want to have real lights, how about some felted lights!
I thought this was pretty cool.

| Purl and June |
Last
but not least and NOT for sale, some garland made from paper beads. The beads were made by RWS by the way ~ a
great combination of Christmas colors. (click her name to visit her shop) And the garland strung by me ~ my attempt at being “creative”.
Just goes to show that anyone can get a little creative if they really want to,
and with a little push from a friend. lol
Hope
you enjoyed our “Decorate the Tree” week.
Rumor has it we’re doing a little more
Christmas next week so don’t
forget to check in and see what the crew is up to.
Thanks
for stopping by,
now go get to work on that tree of yours!

Duuude ~~~

Oh, I just love the vintage lights! Especially those bubble lights, I have those for my tree!
Thank you for including my paper beads!
Love the lights and garland! Bright, cheerful, and lots of great memories in this post.
I have some of the ducks paper beads and love them. :)
See doodle, you just have to let your creativity flow :) .
I love every part of Christmas trees (except maybe the take down...) From old to new. Garlands and lights do add the finishing touch and you showed some great ones.
WooHoo! The tree is up!
It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas....and I love what you did with Ducky's paper beads!
Love your blog! Enjoyed seeing all the trimmings here. I remember when I was a kid making circles out of strips of paper to make garland. I imagine that's something most of us have done! Merry Christmas! Smoochies!
