The Pink Christmas Tree is Here

Pink Christmas Tree

I love it.

I do wish the lights were clear, but I can change them eventually. At night, the hot pink lights take the tree from kooky and fun to over-the-top bordello! Also, the 7.5′ version would have been a better height, but it would have been far too wide for the room. We ordered the medium-sized “wooden” tree stand you see in the photo, hoping that it would add some height. We only got a few extra inches from it, but it does look nicer than the wire stand that came with the tree.

I can’t wait to see what the tree looks like when it’s all decked out with ornaments!

    I am so jealous of your house altogether, but the pink tree just makes it SHINE!!! Never take it down!

    //off to sulk now

    • Barbara

    ;)

  • amyks

    very lovely…and I see the curtains are back. But, another question, how does one decorate a pink tree? I can’t wait to see.

  • curtains (oops)

  • looks like the yellow durtains are back!!!

  • Once you get it decorated, you shoudl enter it… http://www.topmytree.com/ :-)

  • Oh my GOSH! That is so freaking awesome! Your husband is super…mine would never allow that in our house. :) Gorgeous!!!

  • It’s incredible! I so covet this tree.

  • Claudia

    It’s too flippin’ cute!

  • I did it! Inspired by YOU! I picked up a small one for my daughter’s room today! I can’t wait to see how it turns out! :)

  • jbhat

    It is darling. Berry Christmas!

  • Mrs. Canada

    A pink tree – divine! I can’t wait to see how you decorate it!!

  • WOW! I never would imagine a pink tree looking that pretty in a room! But you did it! What a good eye you have!

  • Emily

    Oh my god. I’m in love with that tree. I want it.

  • Hey Nicole,

    Love the Tree. It’s such a delight to look at. I already shared this on my Facebook page….!!!

    GT

  • Oh yes! Too cute, but sadly, this would never fly with my husband. Only YOU could pull this off, Nicole.

  • You must have the nicest husband in the world:)

    Thank goodness you had a baby girl. You can alway go with majority rules.

  • i am SOOOOOO jealous!

  • Oh,I love it, is very very nice!

  • Brandon is either AWESOME, terrified of you, or a little of both!

    :o)

  • I love it. I’m so envious. I hope we’ll get to see it decorated.

  • Rebekah

    ADORABLE!

  • So glad you put the yellow curtains back up!

  • I’m a wee bit jealous. My husband would look at me and say, “I’m emotional, I like chick flicks, and I can enjoy a pedicure like no other, but no pink tree.” I know because I jokingly asked him about one last month and he gave me “the look”. It looks fantastic though!

  • I think it’s seriously cute. Looking forward to seeing how you decorate it.

  • SO Jealous. I really wanted a pink tree this year.. was even going to get my real tree flocked pink (but they were out of the pink). SO cute – can’t wait to see the decorations.

  • I am not quite that brave!! The closest we got was the other year w/ a white tree. But I really admire your home and it looks absolutely fabulous :)

  • Helena

    Oh. My. God. That thing is so beyond tacky that it’s utterly amazing. And, I honestly mean that as the highest of compliments!

    Post photos of it decorated. Stat!!

  • i LOVE your tree! i’ve searched HIGH AND LOW for a pink tree in Australia… and NOTHING is to be found! It’s all too frustrating for me!

    Never mind ornaments, it looks perfect NOW!

  • So jealous of the pink tree! Our tree is a whopping 3 feet tall (standing on a 2-foot table makes it 5 feet tall). But we learned a lesson about big trees a few years ago when we adopted our cat…

  • Sooooooo cool! As for added height, we’ve been setting smaller trees on nightstands or similar sturdy furniture pieces. It provides that extra height, looks cool and lets any ornaments that hang at the bottom branches have extra space to “breathe”. har har. Also More room around the base for…..prezzies…yay!

  • put it up on a low table / coffee table, for more height (and to keep a little person from pulling it over).

  • a most fantastic tree!!!

  • bridget

    I just put my own little pink tree up last night! It’s just a little tinsel tree from Urban Outfitters, but I love it! I LOVE yours, too!

  • It’s absolutely beautiful. I was looking at a tiny little pink tree at Target the other day and thinking how tacky it looked. Yours is absolutely stunning.

  • Wow! I love it! I want to see the “bow-chica-wowow” effect it has at night! :)

  • LOVE your tree!!! I can’t wait to see it decorated, either :)

  • So pretty! My husband would fall over and die at the sight of it, though. His live tree chopping adventures and memories as a kid run far too deep for him to go for this. Like I said before, a small one in my daughter’s room will be so awesome!

    P.S. I think it would be stunning with a wool or white faux fur rug/blanket as the tree skirt a la Young House Love.

  • Michele

    Looks absolutely fabulous!!!

    Are you going to skirt it too?

  • love, love, love it!!!

  • wow! that is the most adorable tree i have ever seen…..i absolutely adore it!
    you are headed for a happy christmas….such a cheerful pink

    :) awesome job

  • Renee

    YOU ROCK MY FACE OFF!

    A suggestion to get some added height: Put some of the chirstmas decoration boxes under the nice wooden stand and cover them with a (white bed sheet, pink blanket, silver lame from the fabric store… I don’t know how to spell that, but it’s pronounced as though it’s french not as though it’s a bore!, or whatever you have laying around to disguise boxes). Then when it’s time to take it all down, the boxes are still close at hand. Just don’t put the ornament boxes under it, for obvious reasons. My mom did this with her slim trees at their old house when they were short on space, and it was barely noticeable that the tree was elevated above the regular tree stand.

  • I love it!

    Now, did you put the yellow curtains back up?

  • Wahooo! That is a festive tree if I ever saw one. Love it. Living vicariously through you, as I doubt my hubby would ever want a pink tree in the house. :)

  • I was having sort of a rotten day, but I couldn’t help but grin at this picture. That pink tree is just irresistibly bizarre- such a quirky take on Christmas spirit. Eleanor is going to have the brightest and happiest childhood- what a lucky little gal!

  • I love, love, love it. I finally have a total of two Christmas trees in the house this year, and the new tree’s decorations are pink and silver. My husband thought I was crazy, but it looks great. You are the luckiest girl in the world to have a husband that doesn’t mind pink in the house.

  • Only you could pull off a pink Christmas tree. It looks SO amazing. I’m jealous!!

  • Now THAT is a fun tree! Does the room glow pink when the lights are on?

  • I love it! And, thank you. I was not in the Christmas spirit until I wandered upon your fabulous tree picture. It reminded me I have a lovely little silver aluminum one at home to put up.

    p.s. For my tree, I added height by sticking the base dowel through a few sturdy shoe boxes and draping them with a piece of dark purple satin.

  • Now THAT is a Christmas tree, whoo! It looks great, spreading it’s pink light out into the room. :D Nice to see the yellow curtains back again.

  • That is one hot tree {in front of yellow curtains no less!}… I’m jealous, my hubs would never let a pink tree into our house!

  • So cute, I love it! I want one!

  • super awesome!they looks beyond beautiful! I’d almost be afraid to decorate it ..

  • LauraC

    I noticed you have the yellow curtains back up – Yeah! They look great!

  • Melissa

    I wasn’t sure what to think of a pink tree at first, but it looks awesome in your space!!

  • The pink tree and yellow curtains = perfection! Love it.

  • I am sooooo jealous! Love it! Where did you order the tree? I can’t wait to see how gorgeous it is when you decorate it. Such a fun tree for a fun and classy house.

  • Erin T.

    I believe I see the yellow curtains again? :)

  • Wow! That’s just begging for an aqua-and-silver colour scheme for the decorations! I’m looking forward to seeing the decorated result.

  • Spectacular addition to your home. You can certainly make a pink tree look fab. Can’t wait to see the ornaments.

  • Never thought a pink tree would look good but it really does!! Very cute indeed!

  • so freaking fun!

  • It’s perfect!

  • the yellow curtains are back!!! yay!!!

  • OH MY GOD!! I love it!

  • I wanted to get this tree as well but wasn’t liking the pink lights. I think it would be better with clear lights. My mom said no though. :( I think with the right decorations it will look beautiful.

  • aimee

    So FUN… I love your style!
    Seriously, how do you get away with that? My hubby was one of 2 boys, and pink decor is just lost on him :-)
