Our pink Christmas

So I thought to myself that I should do a little cute diy to spruce up our Christmas decor. And I don't know what you think of when you think of Christmas but nothing says it better to me than pink ruffle Christmas trees!

I just picked up some foam cones, dressmaker pins, and a cute array of pink fabric. It was super easy to do, all I had to do was cut the fabric in strips and then pin it on the cone, putting the folds in as I went. It was a little time consuming, but I loved having a fun project to do while we watched a Christmas movie last night.
What do you think of our pink wonderland?
