On the heels of this past weekend’s Christmas Home Tour launch, I thought today, we’d take a look back over the past few years at some of the different Christmas tree themes that have popped up on KN over the past four holiday seasons. We’re just over three years old but until I started taking a walk down memory lane, I had no idea just how many trees I’ve shared! It had me reminiscing about former years and brainstorming for next year – yes, already haha. Coming up with at least one brand new theme each year has become a tradition and something I look forward to. And, what I love more than anything is that Christmas trees have become canvases with no rules. It’s become way more common today for families to have a tree beyond the main family tree. Big or small, traditional or unique, I can’t tell you how much I enjoy seeing trees appear in different, unexpected rooms of the house. They’ve become creative outlets in every shade of the rainbow, decorated in baubles to housewares and signs. Some of mine are expected and some are a little more specific, but here are 16 trees I’ve concepted, decorated and shared over the past three years and four seasons.
