In 2007, I joined Blue Panjeet’s 1st Christmas Tree Blog Parade. You can find my entry here. It’s almost round-up day for Christmas Tree Blog Parade 2008 and I still haven’t posted my entry. My apologies, Blue P, for the very late posting. I have been quite delinquent in all things Christmas-related.
I used the very same Walmart-bought tree we got last year, the same angel tree topperand the same gold and red decorations. Red and gold are my favorite holiday colors, primarily because they signify prosperity. ;) There are additions I made, however, which turned our Christmas tree into a “Prosperity Tree”.
This is our tree with the room lights on…
And here’s how our tree looks with all the room lights off…
Here’s a close-up. Keep your eyes open for the yummy tree trimmings! ;)
I used chocolates as additional tree trimmings. I would have used round fruits as well but that’s just not too practical if you ask me. :D
The chocolate selection includes, Milky Way, 3 Musketeers, Twix and M&Ms. I used the mini chocolates. I’ll probably use bigger chocolates next year for added visual impact. ;)
And for a unique prosperity garland, I used play money. It took me a while to glue them all together but it was well worth all the trouble. :D
And that’s it for our tree and my entry for the 2008 Christmas Tree Blog Parade. :D Cheers!
as usual kapatid napakaganda ng iyong entry. Elibs na talaga ako sa creativity mo.
Malalate ang gathering ko ng Christmas tree ngayon kasi napabayaan ko gawa nag palit ako ng webhost. pero baka next week eh ipopost ko na sila lahat
Kapatid babati lang pati ako sayo at ngayon lang ako natapos sa aking blog. naglipat kasi ako ng server.
May you and your family have a very blessed Christmas (actually pasko pa) and may the Lord guide you through this new year.
All the best in 2009!
Pax et Bonum

Weng, I seem to be encountering difficulty viewing the pictures of your site from my office PC. Asar. Last year pa ganito kaya hindi ako masyadong maka-comment kasi I have to view it again from our house (and I seldom use the computer in our house because that is mostly for Pinky and the kids). Grrr. Anyway, just reading the captions make me want a tree like that. Chocolates… hmmm… yum. Sana next year you can add Reeses – my favorite!

kung delinkwente ka sa all things xmas related, lalo naman ako, haha! magagalit na si bluep sa akin kasi wala akong entry for his xmas tree blog parade (dahil wala naman akong xmas tree, to begin with! sad!)
anyway, type na type ko ang iyong prosperity idea with the thousands and thousands of dollars worth of visualization! the chocolates don’t hurt, either, haha! :D
hope to see your tree again next year! *muah*
Ang laki at ganda ng Christmas tree! Ang dami rin gifts! Partida pa yan malayo kayo sa kamag-anak ninyo ha! Hehehe!
Ang mga ganyang chocolates ay inoorder ko pa online rito. Papitas please? May natitira pa ba Ate? :D
