Dressing up the Christmas Tree

December 23, 2016

christmas-tree-dress-ribbon-runs-through-itAlthough I really want to go with a winter white holiday theme, it was hard not to go into a purely Christmas piece with amazing work like this floating across my monitor as I look for eye candy for you. But whether you do Christmas or not, it is hard not to appreciate the decorative impact of something as unique as this Christmas tree dress.

I’m not sure if this is more a tree or a gown. Maybe it could be worn although it would be quite difficult to get around in. I do know this was made for a client’s home by Legare Simpson at A Ribbon Runs Through It. Legare got into making these when, not finding anything she liked, she tried making wreath’s for herself. What she made impressed others who asked her to make them wreaths and the passion just grew from there.

She makes all kinds of wreaths but it’s her dresses and suits–created for other seasons as well–that really grab the spotlight. I wish I had time to make something so amazing for the house but maybe next year. In the meantime, enjoy her gorgeous array of tree dresses, flower suits and unique wreaths on her website.
