Christmas Tree Flags!



You know the cute little flag thingys that you see everywhere and are just so cute? Last night I was thinking about them, and I thought that if I turned the flags upside-down that they would look like Christmas trees!

Do they look like trees? Or does it just look like I put them on the wrong way? I can't decide. But either way, I kinda like them!





I decided to use pink fabrics, with ribbon and lace as "tree" garlands. I love pink! And it matched my kitchen beautifully I think!



I would also just like to add that today is the greatest! You know when everything just feels happy? That's today! Happy Tuesday!!

Disney-
As I was looking at your blog post with Pear on my lap she said to me "I want our house to be prettier than that one because ours isn't prettier." You gotta love 2 year olds! They tell it like it is!

Love the garland! Very cute and I think they pass as Christmas trees. Also, I too think your kitchen is gorgeous and some day when we're done remodeling maybe ours will be pretty too!

Your pink kitchen is to die for!!! I love it! And I personally love the upside down trees.. That might work for my kids study room to add a subtle bit of cheer! Thanks for sharing!

i love your kitchen AND the garland. I think having the ribbon and lace on there makes it look like trees for sure.

I never think of 'pink' at Christmas, but I begin to love "pink" for you.
Thank you and have a great,great day!!

Disney said...

I got my mixer as a wedding gift from my mother and grandmother. I think they ordered in online through Macy's, but most stores that carry KitchenAid can get you one in just about any color you like! I love mine to death!

Autumn said...

Fourthly, how did you make the purse?

Disney said...

Oh, hi Michelle! Well thank you for returning the favor! Yes, Disney is my real name! And I made the bag (I think you're talking about the one below?) by sewing up the bottom of a tube top, pleating it, and adding straps from the underlining. Then I made rosettes from scrap pink jersey!

Emilie said...

Hi Disney! I've been keeping up with your blog for about a month now and I've even made a few things from your tutorials! I wanted to tell you that your pink tree flags are adorable, I'd never thought about making any flags before. I think I'll try it, but maybe use the pinking shears on the edges to evoke more of the tree theme.... do you think that'd make them feel more tree-like to you?

Thanks for all the great ideas. My daughter would thank you on Christmas day if she could, she's reaping the benefits of your uber-creative blog!

I love your pink kitchen aid! I have a bright red one (because I'm a bright color girl, and my husband said I could have either red or black, so I chose red!)
oh, love the flags to tree idea too, since that was what your post was all about! :)
