christmas: blue ornaments

Christmas picspam!!




The big tree
The big tree
The big tree in the middle of the main foyer at church--our decorators did a fantastic job.
The house set
The house set
The stage-right set--the house scene of the Christmas show. There was another set in the middle, between the house and the office, but it wasn't really anything spectacular to look at when I was taking the pictures between shows.
The office set
The office set
The stage-left, office set. The bookshelves are filled with my scripts and textbooks, mostly. Despite the fact that it's supposed to be an executive's office. And this is what happens when you can't see the titles on the spines from the audience!
My tree
My tree
My beautifully full IKEA tree, all in silver and red. Of course, my naughty cat broke half the red ornaments a few years ago, and this year, I just bought more silver, no red or white, so the tree is very predominantly silver this year.

The ceiling of my living room. Hmmm... wonder where I got this idea from! Look at the church pictures looking down the hallway. It looks much better when the clusters of ornaments are hanging from light fixtures and there are about 12 clusters of at least 100 ornaments each. But my little attempt is still fun.
The quilt
The quilt
My mom gave me this wall quilt last year--each square has a different fabric that represents some part of my year in New York, and the outside has shopping bags and store signs on it.
New living room
New living room
The living room with the tree and decorations, and with the rearranged furniture.
Heather and Alida
Heather and Alida
This is Heather, the director of our Christmas show, and me. We're both trained in theatre, so it's our greatest challenge and goal to bring a sense of professionalism and excellence to the drama program at the church. She and her husband Scott are both great people, and I love working with her--we work together so well, and I'll keep working with her for as long as I can.
Looking down the foyer
Looking down the foyer
Looking past the main tree down the east wing of the foyer. There's a life-sized gingerbread house on the far left side of the picture, and you can see at least one of the light fixtures with the ornament clusters hanging from it.
Decorations

Trees and the life-sized gingerbread house, with the hanging ornaments. That's a better picture of both the ornaments and the house.

Ooh! The ornament hanging idea is genius! Your living room is very festive and pretty.
Thank you! And yeah--I thought the ornaments were cool. Heather has a few really nice ones that she doesn't put on her tree, and she hangs them from a curtain rod in a row, and between that and the ornaments at church, I decided to hang my own!

Yes, I have no original ideas.
Oh -- I love the decorations! And you look fabulous, lady!
Thank you! I just realized I posted the blurry picture of the two of us, but... oh well!
Oh, cool decorations! So pretty. :) I have ornaments hanging from my classroom ceiling! Had. We took most things down today, since I'm ON BREAK!!! :) The ceiling is a great decoration tool. I plan to use it way more. The set is very cool too. That's one thing I'd like to improve on in our school plays.
