This week:

BLUE ORNAMENTS 

I am sort of a no-fuss sort of decorator. 

I like to keep things simple but not stark.

I love the color blue and have it as an accent color in a few areas of my home, but I don't have any blue Christmas decor. 

So I bought an el cheapo box of ball ornaments, 9 for $2.99.

I went through my ribbon stash and found a few blue/teal ribbons that were pretty with the ornaments. 

Over the past few years, I have just sort of spread out silver adn gold ornaments throughout my home and I'm ready for some color. I don't like a lot of clutter, so instead of having Christmas decor take over every surface, I add a few ornaments here and there...on shelves, in jars, hanging from ribbons on curtain rods...

to make things merry & bright.

I got a little wild and embellished a few of these super inexpensive balls with glitter.

All it takes is glue, glitter and 10 minutes.

But I hope I've shown that you don't have to spend a lot of money or go 'over the top' to bring a little touch of blue 

to liven things up a bit! 

Thanks for coming over! 

Be sure to visit all of my co-hosts blogs for more inspiration
