The quest for a silver ribbon

With the day that Dan will haul home a Christmas tree and we’ll proceed to decorate it being just two days away, it suddenly dawned on me that I should probably find a silver tree skirt and silver tree topper to match this year’s color scheme. I’m not too picky about the tree skirt, but I had something very specific in mind for a tree topper: a poofy silver bow with cascading tails that cascade down the length of the tree. Apparently this type of ribbon must be a figment of my imagination, because it took me four stores to come up with a bow that semi-resembled the bow in my mind, and I had to buy a spool of silver holiday ribbon in order to be able to create that full-length cascading effect.

Ugh. I was going to continue this blog entry, but it’s 11:36pm, and I feel like I can barely keep my eyes open… Zzz…

Great idea for your tree. Very artistic and resourceful at the same time. :)

Love the color scheme you are planning on using this year. The blue ornaments are beautiful… Totally jealous of your storage box, too. :)

  • Guest_1143 : you're the owner of lavish right? do you visit the board? i like it but it's kinda dead.
  • Guest_3574 : Hey - I don't see Georgia font. Still the weird system font.
  • Tara : I like Georgia :)
  • Jenn : I changed the font to Georgia -- feedback? Also, the sidebar issue has been fixed!
  • Jenn : Thanks for the feedback guys. I changed the font, and I'm going to be checking into the sidebar issue on the Q&A page now.
  • Guest_3678 : your new layout is so difficult to read!
  • Cole : also, your second sidebar is broken on the Q&A page, just fyi
  • Cole : Um, did that even work?!
  • Cole : I agree with the comments about the font. I had to copy and paste some of the text into another window just to read it
  • itizhn : ZubqiCPLZysbOuLY Skz
  • Tara : I agree with Stephanie. I think it might be a mistake.
  • Alice : I like the new layout. :3
  • Stephanie : Did you mean to have Desdemona be your default font? It is god-awful to read. The entire layout looks great, but this font is not designed to be used as a body font.
  • Guest_3574 : The font is really odd. Really hard to read. Rest looks awesome!
  • Guest_2909 : LOVE the colors of the new theme ♥
  • Amy : Holy CRAP! I haven't seen a tagboard in years, lol. I love the new layout, but I have to agree on the font. I feel it's a little small.
  • Guest_957 : Terrible font, otherwise great layout.
  • Gina : I love the layout! But I'm having a horrible time trying to read the text. Maybe it's just me :(

And while I have two kids (Alyssa is five, and Ryan is three), you won't find "mommy" in my username or email address, nor does my blog revolve around them.
