A tiny tree outside...and a small one in the living room....Growing up in Switzerland with real trees that had
real candles burning, I'm now enjoying the convenience of using the same tree each year and turning the magic on and off with a switch..., most of you do, right?
...I took some of my favorite shells and put them over the lights...
...and the starfish, well, it sits casually on the branches...
...and the lights on the porch which we can see from the kitchen and the living room just add that little bit of extra festivity..., so I hope you enjoy the season and touring all the homes at

Thanks for joining my blog party! I'm fascinated by the idea of using real candles on a Christmas tree. I didn't know they still did that in Switzerland.
Really like the idea of putting the seashells on your Christmas tree. What a clever idea! -Julia :-)

Oh gosh between me and my brother we would have burnt the house down with real candles, I am sure my parents have loved the convenience (and safety) of artificial lights for all these years! :) Thanks for sharing!
Hahaha...Love the expression, "turning the magic on and off with a switch." Hysterical! (and so true. :-)
I love your coastal tree. We managed to put up a coastal wreath. That I promptly forgot to take pictures of before heading back to the city for the week. Alas.
