Crimson and White Tree

The designer: Blogger Kate Riley from Centsational Girl

How she did it: Using a Christmas tree covered with faux white snow, Kate created a beautiful backdrop for crimson colored ornaments, red berry branches, and birds with scarlet feathers. In place of a tree skirt, Kate placed her tree inside a wine barrel to add a rustic appeal. To find something similar, try local nurseries, hardware stores, or wineries. Best of all, you can reuse the barrel in the spring to start planting l or for your summer garden tomatoes.
