This isn't a great picture. You can't even see the topper. I have a black and white Christmas tree. I'm strange I know. As a person who said "I will never have a fake tree" you can imagine my family's surprise to come in and see my great white fake tree all decked out with black and white ornaments. I'm not done with it yet. Black and white ornaments aren't easy to find. Glitter on the other hand.... The clear glass ball ornaments are perfect for those of us with off-beat colors. It's a great kid craft! Check out Aurora's blog for ones she made. I like Martha's Glitter Glue and her fine glitters. Simply cover the ball, or use tape to mark off a pattern, with the glitter glue and sprinkle glitter over it. Hang to dry and believe it or not it works. It's so pretty too.
I also had fun blog-surfing and found this gem. It's paper snowflakes!! Her's look great in 2 tone but I wanted to try plain ol' white. I'm so colorful all year that when it comes time for Christmas I'm a white lights kinda girl. Weird huh?You're wanting the blog link right about now. ;)
It's Paper Snowflake Tutorial.

Oh, I LOVE your black & white tree!! And those paper snowflakes ~~ I have been seeing them everywhere, even at my kids school!! Thanks for including the link, I've been wondering how they are made! Merry Christmas!
I love it!!!! I have a Cobalt Blue and White tree, although the tree itself is green. And I know how hard it is to find the right ornaments for it. Some years there are tons to choose from and other years just nothing.
Love the snowflakes....beautiful!
Your tree is very pretty! love the white and black. Very Elegant! The snowflake is just awsome!!
Wow that is just the coolest snowflake!!! The tree is very lovely. We have a fake green tree with white, silver, and blue ornaments only.

OMGoodness!!! I *soooo* wanted a black and white tree this year!! I saw it somewhere (maybe Hobby Lobby...) and it was soooo pretty!! So since we dont have a tree this year (unless you count the blue one in the boys room and the pink one in the girls room) I'll just have to live vicariously through you and your beautiful tree LOL! Totally wicked snowflake too!!
Just amazing the best Christmas Tree Ive ever seen!! You go Girly!! I love how talented you are!!
Love the tree :)
We are now going to have a snowflake/snowman night with family making these this month themed with a white dinner night, drinks, white cocoa etc... So cute!
