Column #3 The Flower Mill-Christmas Tree Decorating 101

It is December 1st. Which means there is only 24 days left until Christmas…man this year has flown! With 24 days left, we need to get our Christmas trees decorated! Decorating the tree is one of the most exciting parts of Christmas for me. With the need for some Christmas decorating inspiration, 
I knew the perfect man to help!


            Daryl Walters, an impeccably dressed man and the owner of the Flower Mill always has the Christmas inspiration to knock your socks off! As soon as you walk in the door, you instantly smile as you are greeted with a glittery, fun, green, and red tree with a happy little elf smiling back. The store is decorated from top to bottom with an array of Christmas decorations, ideas, and themed Christmas trees. The Flower Mill has been in business for 30 years, while Daryl has owned it for 6 years. Not only being a prosperous businessman, Daryl’s forte includes decorating homes, exclusive weddings, and of course at this time of year he is styling 10-15 homes and Christmas trees. With his use of peacock and pheasant feathers, an assortment of flowers, ribbons, and ornaments, I departed with a plethora of Christmas inspiration.
        
  

 Times are tough this year and most of us are decorating on a budget. I did some shopping research and found that The Dollar Tree on Henderson has some beautiful ornaments from sparkly to traditional. They also have birds, pheasant feathers, ribbon, beads, and tons of Poinsettias and other flower bouquets…and yes for $1.00. If you are looking for bulk, Wal-Mart has plastic tubs of assorted colored round ornaments for $4.99. Target has a fabulous collection of ornaments for any themed tree you are planning on decorating.
For $15.00 you can purchase a 50 pack of small assorted colored ornament balls.
           As for me, I will be decorating my live tree, peacock themed, mixed with feathers, glitter, and lots of blues, turquoise, and purple. For the most beautiful glitz and glammed trees around, go visit Daryl and his wonderful staff at The Flower Mill at 619 N. Main Street.

My favorite tree! Isn't is fabulous!!
