I didn't get a tree put up again this year, so out came my tinsel tree. It's bare of ornaments except a pink peacock topper, another more traditional color peacock, and a clear ball with lengths of Hermes, Louis Vuitton, and Gucci ribbon. Given to me some many years ago by the ever fabulous Bradley Justice.
I did a few other Christmas touches- a large mercury star in the front door sidelight, a mica covered swan on the table in front of the tree, some favorite red glass ornaments mixed into my green wine bottles in the dining room window, and some mercury glass tipped tinsel picks.
Although not a substitute for a decorated tree, they all make me happy.
