I don’t know. Lol. I may be crazy!

What about trying something, not sure if it will work or not but I like tying lots of ideas. Put all of the trees on the one side adding risers if needed to vary heights and then add some greenery and maybe a riser at the base of the deer and move them all in a little to overlap the art.

I like the red berries! 😉

I bought my bottlebrush trees from here and was happy with the quality and customer service. They have velvet trees if you are interested.

Hi Mary. I like Cubby’s suggestion above. Another idea - switch table and buffet decor. The long platter with balls and greenery would work well under your painting and the trees and reindeer would be highlighted on the green runner. Also you can never go wrong with more greenery and berries!

Hi Cubby 😊I don’t have any risers or greenery at this moment but did move the trees towards the center more and added these green trees…not sure they go well with the table runner.
Molly..the velvet trees are very pretty but I am not sure on that particular green color????
Hi Lisa… I agree the platter does look good on the buffet but moving all those trees every time I want to use the table would be a hassle. Thanks for your input😊
What’s everyone think of those green trees yes or no?????
Here’s a couple different set ups.

Lots of options on the site. Check them out. I bought the large trees on the middle picture.

Thanks Molly I didn’t realize they had different colors! Anyway the velvet actually come in olive but they are out of stock. I believe I found them on Amazon tho.

Thoughts on if I get these to mix in with the other trees on the buffet to coordinate with the table runner????

I’d give it a shot and think it would provide some contrast. Maybe @kjoy can mock it up if she is around.

Here’s a straight on pic @kjoy if you have time. Thanks 😊

Hi Mary..I really like the trees you added a subtle green works well with your colors in the living room…the runner is a bit too strong I think a white or taupe runner look for some sparkle so it flows with the buffet.

I totally agree with Julie. I like the first picture you posted with the soft green trees. Maybe a runner in that color or go back to original runner and two orbs in soft green.

I think those green trees add to the buffet. I think I am into tree forests this year as I was thinking maybe add several more trees and try moving the whole vignette into the center. I like the green table runner but it feels too strong a color with your other light colors.

Here is what I mean about liking the tree forests, lol.

Thanks everyone....you are right the green is a bit strong...I do need to take into consideration the living room colors since it opens into this room. I will see if I can find a different runner to try. I'm running out of time!!! :):)

Cubby...your tree forests are beautiful!! Thanks for sharing:)

Love all your trees Cubby! Especially in the kitchen!

Thanks Parker.

Cubby, I like your trees and your deer 🦌 on the island too. I really like the little black deer.

Thanks Nora those are Pottery Barn, I have wanted them for years and they were always sold out so this year I decided to look for them super early and got them. Parker didn't mean to hijack your dilemma just trying to give some ideas using your trees

Can you come over and decorate my kitchen island, Cubby ? 😉 I like all your “forests”, but especially the kitchen vignette.

sure Nicci be right there, lol. Might be a long drive from Arizona though, depending on where you are.

Hi, Mary. If you order those green trees for the buffet maybe you could layer a smaller white/ silver runner over the green velvet runner and just have some green peeking out to work with the green trees. Maybe try spreading the buffet decor across the width more starting at the center. I think more red berries and/ or some frosted fruit tucked in on the table centerpiece would be pretty.

Hi Nicci😊…I’ve decided against the velvet olive color trees. I don’t think the color works with my living room. They are pretty tho!

I found a new Lenox French Perle (whatever that is )table runner I had tucked away in a drawer just to get an idea of a lighter solid color. It has a slight sheen to it.

I think I may have found a happy medium! It is white has some green and a little sparkle! Looks good with the trees. My only concern does it look too farmhouse for my room? Please I need your vote …yes or keep looking. Thanks 😊

A BIG YES from me, Mary. Very pretty? Love that ! I don’t think it is farmhouse at all - it’s perfect, imo.

NOT🙄? ——-Just, “ very pretty! “

Thanks Nicci!

Perfect! And you already had it in a drawer- Can’t get better!

Thanks Parker …no I bought that one today at TJ Maxx.. the picture above that I had. 😊

I really like it...nice find!! :)

Perfect Mary! Just that little touch of green is fine…and it flows beautiful with the new subtle green trees.🥰

Thanks Zaz and Julie. I love it! I added a little pine to the centerpiece. I am done now! Thanks everyone!

Your dining room decorations are so pretty, Mary. I love the addition of pine to the centerpiece, too. Happy Holidays to you and your family.

It looks great Mary! I don’t think I am getting all your notifications either because I have missed a lot. Previously I would get notifications if I commented on a thread but now I only seem to get notified if someone I “follow” comment on it. 🤷‍♀️

Thanks Nicci for the kind words 😊Happy Holidays to you and your family too. 🎄🎅

Hi Kjoy 🙋‍♀️ I didn’t think you were getting my notifications either. I’m glad you found me now!😊

I just followed you just in case 🤞

Interesting observation Kjoy. I’ve been missing notifications for other threads I follow. I’ll have to try following the OP.

Looks good I think your changes added just the right touch of color you were going for.

Merry Christmas to all my houzz friends from my family to yours!

What a cute family !!

Beautiful & enjoy! Merry Christmas all!

Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family, Mary. 🎄

Love it Mary! Merry Christmas 🎄🎅
