T'was the Night Before Christmas

Almost.

Can you believe tomorrow is Christmas Eve? And I STILL have a couple more things to buy...I am moving much more slowy this year, for some reason.

Anyway, I've been to my share of holiday parties and I am loving the colors I am seeing this season.


Of course, the GREENS (my favorite):
holiday 2009 greens
And the REDS:
holiday 2009 reds


But also, lots of gorgeous BLUES:

And SILVERY GREYS:
holiday 2009 grey/silvers

LOVE IT!



I have also seen my share of pretty lights and decorations.

And of course, there are the trees. Oh the trees. So pretty.


Here's Rockefeller Center's:


Check out this University of Aalborg Library Christmas Tree:
And this Spinning Fiber Optic tree: Or this tree in Paris made from recycled bottles (photo from Brisbane Times):


A Very Merry Christmas to you and yours. See you in a few days!

I love that shade of blue.

The Christmas tree made out of books is also fantastic! I want one myself now!

Have a great Christmas!

I hate the color green but those greens are actually pretty! Silver is my favorite holiday clothing and accessory color.
