*THIS GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED*
Welcome to Day 5 of our 12 Days of Christmas!! (I’m going to talk about my Christmas tree for a hot second, but there’s also a fabulous giveaway at the end of this post, so don’t forget to enter!)
True confession time: Getting ready for Christmas this year has been nothing but a big ball of stress for me. (Anyone else?) I’ve been trying to decorate my house for a while now, and I’m still not finished. To be honest, this year the comparison monster has grabbed hold of me tight and just won’t let go. I don’t know how many blogs you read, but people are crafting things and decorating in ways that are blowing my mind, literally – I’m pretty sure there’s a small hole in my brain which is part of the reason I can’t wrap my head around Christmas this year. (I will do a roundup of my favorite ideas soon. Stay tuned.)
OUR LATEST VIDEOS
Anyway, despite all of the holiday decorating decisions I still haven’t made, fortunately this year’s Christmas tree was a no brainer. After doing my rainbow-inspired tree for the past couple years, I decided to try something a bit different. The result was my Mona Lisa, Here’s the backstory:
Last year I started working with Treetopia as part of their Holiday Council. They are some of the nicest people, and I’m crazy about their trees. (Several months ago they even asked me to style some trees for them to show on their site. I shared my creations with you here and here.)
For my own tree this year, I knew that I wanted something really special. Something different, but not that different. When I saw Treetopia’s Navy Blue Christmas Tree, I knew I had found “the one.”
Thanks to Nate Berkus’s suggestion to paint my dining room a different color, I had a whole new color palette to play with this year. After trying different colors in that space all year long, I discovered how well blues and greens looked with the rest of the room. I also wanted a little nod to last year’s tree, so I thought a gradient / ombre effect would be fun. Finally, because I’m actually starting to get sick of soooo much gold, copper was my metallic of choice. Armed with bags of vintage glass ornaments that I’ve been collecting over the years, I was ready to tackle my tree.
Tada! (Do you hear the angels singing?)
Haha. Totally kidding. However, I am enthralled with the way this tree turned out. It’s so much better than I ever dreamed.
In going for a different look this year, I also opted for no ribbon. One of the reasons was because of this copper (rose gold) ball garland I found at CB2. I purchased 7 strands of it and wrapped it around the tree before decorating.
This turned out to be genius. For very little effort, it filled up so much of the tree and added tons of sparkle.
After that, I started adding ornaments. I began at the bottom with navy and worked my way up to light green, creating a gradient effect.
As I mentioned above, most of the ornaments are just glass balls I amassed over the years. However, I did purchase a few new ornaments from Crate & Barrel. The color palette was perfect and they added interest with their glittered design.
For a dash more copper, I found these sequined ornaments from H&M’s home line.
I also picked up a few of these metal ribbon drop ornaments from CB2.
The tree topper is a vintage find from eBay. I love this style and was so lucky to find one in copper.
Finally, the tree skirt is a faux fur one I picked up at West Elm. (Also, please pardon the lack of decoration around the tree. I know it’s totally cool to wrap up a bunch of empty boxes in pretty paper and tuck them under the tree amongst birch logs sprinkled with fake snow, but my cats like to lay under there because it’s warm and cozy, and honestly, they are all I really want or need under my trees.)
Pretty, right? The navy blue needles of the tree are fascinating to look at. From a distance they almost look green, but when you get up close to the tree, they’re totally blue.
So that’s my official tree for 2014. I have a couple more trees throughout the house, but they aren’t quite as artfully decorated. I’ll be sharing those with you soon.
Okay, now let’s talk giveaway.
Since I love giving you guys the hook up whenever I can, I talked to my friends at Treetopia, and they said I could give away ANY TREE (up to $500) to one lucky IBC reader. Sweet, right?Thanks, Treetopia!

Merry Christmas!
OH Christmas tree I love traditional.
A navy blue tree!!! Yes indeed! Well done.
After not having a tree for the past two years I am so excited to have a space to decorate. I love the Whisper White Cashmere tree but am also drawn to the traditional Oh Christmas Tree.
Fingers crossed. Thank you for the opportunity.
Your tree is gorgeous! I love the colors you chose. I’m pretty traditional, so my choice of a tree from Treetopia would be the Alexander Fir.
I follow your truly lovely instagram account. Thank you for the inspiration.
Your navy ombre tree is beautiful. I visited treetopia and I would love to win the 7.5 ft. All That Glitters gold tree that costs $268! It would be wonderful in my dining room. Thanks for the opportunity and inspiration.
Although the pastel trees are screaming my name, I think the Slim Spruce tree would be the way to go for me. This is an awesome giveaway. I really really REALLY need a tree, so, fingers crossed!!!!
Following on Instagram!!! Handle @weindam
Loving that navy as we just painted some walls as well, but I’m thinking the frosty flocked tree is what I’d go with.
Oh my gosh, your navy tree is fantastic, Michael! And what a great giveaway!!! When I was little, my grandma had a silver tree that she put up every year. I had never known anyone with a tree in anything other than GREEN. So, in honor of my grandma, I like Treetopia’s “Tinkerbell Silver Christmas Tree.” 🙂
Been following on Instagram for a while! @mrsguenterrific
PS: I gladly follow you on Instagram too. xo
Following you on Instagram – my page is @lrizz. Signed up for your newsletter- can’t wait to be inspired! Now for the trees….the little girl in me would love Pretty in Pink, but realistically, adult me would choose Oh Christmas Tree- it’s simply beautiful! Thanks!
We are replacing our tree this year, I would totally go with the 7.5 foot Oh Christmas Tree.

What a great giveaway! Your blue tree looks stunning, but if I won I think I’d have to go for one of the green trees–probably the 9′ “O Christmas Tree” model. Thank you so much for introducing us to Treetopia!
I love the Moonlight White Chrismtas tree. It brings me back fun childhood memories.
Been folloing Inspired by Charm. @deb635

I love this!! I think I would pick the navy blue true!
I also follow you on instagram @kayleighelizah
I loved the silver tinsel trees for sure, but would have to go to a more traditional choice of the Slim Spruce. Our old 9 foot tree is finally starting to show its age. And, I don’t add presents under the tree either….our cats have always found this area to be a great napping place! Thanks for the great give away and wonderful blog…..love the tree with its antique orns, I have an out of control collection of oldies…….Love it!
i love your tree! I really like the slim spruce. I have the perfect place for it….and I want to make a phone tree with all the old family pics.
Not phone (argh! Autocorrect!)….photo!
I really love this one! http://www.treetopia.com/classic-artificial-christmas-trees-p/alexander-fir-christmas-tree.htm?1=1&CartID=0
This is great fun! Ok, I already follow you on Instagram (for at least a couple of years now)! And I checked out the trees! Oh my goodness, how am I supposed to narrow it down to just one?? I choose the Addison Spruce, 7 foot, lighted!
My Instagram handle is @saltysweetlife!
Alrighty. I signed up for your email. Actually, I have no idea why I haven’t done this before–probably because I’ve been on your Pinterest and IG for forever! Seriously, you have mad decorating skills and I always get so excited to see what you do every Christmas! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
You made me do math, in the morning, pre-coffee. Brain cramp!
I can’t decide between the beautiful vintage-inspired silver trees or the wonderful black-to-gold ombre tree! So neat!
I follow you on Instagram (akriggs29) and love seeing your posts!
I follow on Instagram! @allisonkist
I also signed up for the Newsletter!
Wow I had no idea there were so many tree choices! I love the green dazzling diva tree. The cashmere white tree is also really special.
Your tree is just amazing…I LOVE it! I think I would chose the Frosty Flocked tree-because it reminds my childhood trees, but I am very tempted by the Tinkerbell Silver! Thank you for sharing-you made my creative brain so happy today with that tree!
What a treasure trove of trees to choose from…my choice would be the lit balsam fir.
I love the navy and YES I follow you on Instagram! Love you!
I’m new to you blog and I’m so excited that I found you, and I LOVE your tree. I’m very much a tranditionist but I’m trying to step out of my comfort zone ….baby steps, so my choice of a tree from Treetopia would be a 7.5 All That Glitters tree. Thank you for the opportunity to win such a beautiful tree and sharing all you talent with all your followers.
Already follow on instagram- @hoekster
I would choose the 7 foot Frosty Fir from Treetopia. I wish I could decorate it as beautifully as you do. I read your blog all year (gained 5 pounds as we baked pie together) but I love your Christmas posts. Thanks for the opportunity to win a tree!
I love what you did what the black tree. It is a toss up between the black tree and the Silver Stardust Tinsel Tree. As a kid I wanted my mom to get one of those aluminum trees which she wouldn’t be caught dead with. I am always checking them out on eBay.
Oh my I thought this was a black tree the navy is just amazing.
I follow you on Instagram under the name LivingRanchoDelux
Pratically speaking the 6.5′ addison spruce, however speaking from my heart the black ombre is my favorite.

Ooh, it would be so hard to choose! I love the lipstick red (red is my favorite color!) but the Lively Lavender is beautiful, even though it would match nothing in my house! 🙂 The gold is beautiful too.
signed up on your mailing list too 🙂
I love the slim spruce Christmas tree! 🙂
It is so hard to choose but I like the Pretty in Pink potted tree 🙂
I enjoy following you on Instagram as well! @tylerrstutz
I loveeeee the pencil trees! So cute and unique. Especially the white one to hold up against really bright and colorful ornaments!
I am a die-hard live Christmas tree enthusiast, however there have been years where I have had to resort to an artificial tree- and let me tell you, realistic tree’s make a huge difference! I would totally go with the ‘Oh Christmas Tree’ selection. Thanks Michael for such an amazing giveaway!
I utterly adore the whisper white Christmas tree and the pretty in pink potted christmas trees. Those would be so fun to decorate!
ONE: I don’t know why, but the BLACK GOLD OMBRE TREE really appeals to me. I think a nice colored ribbon or garland would really pop against the black. http://www.treetopia.com/colored-artificial-christmas-trees-p/black-gold-ombre-tree.htm
TWO: I already follow you on Instagram (and have for some time). My Instagram handle is Dannyboi_313
THREE: Sign up for the Inspired by Charm mailing list. Done!
I really love the blue tree with the color on the wall. You have such an impressive talent with decorating in general, but I really like when you decorate for the holidays. Also, the tree skirt is fantastic.
Keep up the good work!
Visited Treetopia and I would love to win the 6′ OH CHRISTMAS TREE with multi colored lights. I can’t believe how real it looks! We just got married and bought our first house, so this would be a real treat 🙂
Gorgeous tree! I would choose the Balsam Spruce, 8ft with clear lights!
I would love to win the 7″ Frosty Flocked Christmas Tree! My husband and I are still using a cheap tree we bought two years ago when we first got married. It would be wonderful to upgrade to something so beautiful!
I also already follow you on Instagram!
I have followed you for a while on IG 🙂 my handle is @hellomandiwoo !
I signed up for emails 🙂
Your ombre’ tree is gorgeous! Went to the site and I’m loving the Treetopia Basics 7.5 foot White Slim tree. I’ve got a traditional pine pre-lit 7.5 foot already and think the white would be a very striking 2nd tree or a “statement” tree. Ombre’ on that white tree would look fantastic!
I’m a long time follower on IG!
@coolmommaweed
The 7′ Slim Spruce with clear lights would be just perfect!! My husband and I have the real vs faux debate every year (and he wins with real every year). 🙂 But this year he said we could look at an artificial tree to be my special themed tree when they go on sale after the holidays. This would be even better!!
I just love the ombre effect with the ornaments! Gorgeous tree!
I follow on Instagram! (sbahrebrewer). 🙂
Silver stardust tinsel tree is awesome!! I would love that one 🙂
I’d choose the Addison Spruce. Thanks!

And just so you know? YOU are one of those homes many of us stress over with insecurities! What do YOU need to feel like this for?! hahaha
I adore your trees and this one is no exception. Spectacular! The navy is so different and cool!
And I love that the tree is restricted as a cat only zone for now. LOVE. 🙂

Oh, Michael, you are my favorite. You have the most artistic tree (and style) and I love the giveaway! I already follow you on IG- @tootsthegrand and and now am on your mailing list. I would love to be able to get a new, big tree to replace my 3- footer so I can actually put all my ornaments on it without fear of the kitties tipping it over! Why do they love Christmas trees so much?! I love the colored trees, but I live in Arizona where green is a rare commodity and if I were to win, I would love the Alexander Fir! It’s so great what you’re doing! Merry Christmas!!
I love your tree!!! GORGEOUS! If I could pick just one, and that’s a hard thing to do at treetopia, I would love to have the Biltmore Pine, 7′ Full. I love the berries and pine cone touches on that tree.
Ok… I’ve been following you on Pinterest forever and I didn’t realize you had an Instagram account! But I am now following you there as well. … I’m jhardesty31

Adore the Silver Pencil tree.
Your navy tree is really stunning. I love it up against the grey walls. This is such a fun giveaway, and because it’s so fun, I think I would pick an upside down tree. I’ve always wanted to try one, and now we have my husband’s office in the front of the house and the windows in there would perfectly display an upside down tree!

Your tree turned out SO beautiful!! You amaze me lol..I also get what you mean because there are SO many amazing ideas online for decorating for the holidays..My mind’s in overload too lol

I’m usually very traditional with my holiday decor, but the black tree is absolutely stunning! I would pick the Treetopia Basics Black Tree.
I love the Struck Gold Tinsel Tabletop Trees. Perfect for my apartment. Also the close up of your radiator with all that beautiful scroll work leaves me breathless. I always admired it in your photos but had no idea it was so fancy. Your tree is beautiful just like the rest of your amazing home.
I like the Alexander Fir. There are so many beautiful ones!

Moonlight White is my choice, I like the shape and size too.
I love how you have decorated your tree. The blue is pretty. Thanks for the give-a-way. So many to choose from. I had no idea they came in all those colors and styles. But I would have to choose “Silver Stardust” (7.5) as my favorite. Would love to glamorize this tree. Love it. Thanks Michael.
I totally need one of those Cranberry Crush Potted trees!
Love the Navy Tree! If I won I would get the Navy for sure. You have the best taste!!!

Gorgeous tree! The ombre is beautiful, as is the navy tree. And the trees at Treetopia?? Heaven! I love the Whisper White Cashmere (it would be lovely with our jewel tone/peacock theme)…but…the Biltmore Pine would be perfect for our ornaments that are more traditional. How does a person choose only one?

I love the Addison spruce! I enjoy a slimmer tree, but not quite a pencil tree and that seems like a good option. I really need a new tree, mine is on it’s last limb. LOL

Slim Spruce
Love them all, but the 7.5’ Oh Christmas Tree is the one for me!
EEEKkkk!!! LOVE the colored trees!! I would pick the 7 ft navy tree!!! Or perhaps the black! Oh so many choices!!
We like a classic white artificial tree and ours is starting to brown (one section is against a window and receives sun). I briefly thought about switching to green artificial, but one of our neighbors said it doesn’t feel like the holidays until she sees our white tree! The Winter White Christmas Tree in 6′ looks great.
Oh, how I would love to have one of those beautiful white trees, either Moonlight White Christmas tree, 7 ft or the Whisper White Cashmere Tree 7 ft. I would be so very happy to have one of those while I am still able to decorate (just 80 yrs). I have been following you for quite a while by getting your e-mail blogs which are so much fun to read.
I would choose the Moonlight White tree.
I’m following on IG(amymaddux). Thanks!
Would love to have a flocked tree as it would remind me of the one my grandparents in Minnesota had for many years!
The Biltmore Pine caught my eye for a traditional choice. If I chose something unconventional, the Snow White Pine would be stunning. If I let my son choose, he would go nuts for the orange tree (how fun is that!). Don’t be jealous of others, your blue tree is beyond gorgeous (and makes me a little jealous!). Merry Christmas!
I just signed up for your email updates. Thanks!
Treetopias Slim Spruce is looking like it belongs in my livingroom.
I am a traditionalist, but you blue tree is fantastic.
I went to their site and I love the baby blue Christmas tree.

The moonlight white tree AND your faux fur tree skirt would really set off my antique ornaments. your navy tree was beautiful, very fresh and original.
Thank you for a wonderful giveaway!
I really like the 8′ Slim Spruce Christmas Tree with clear lights.
Thanks again!
I would choose a 9′ slim Addison spruce. Unlit. I’m a little OCD about the lights, so I have to do them myself.
The name of the tree I would pick if I was lucky enough to win is The Silver Stardust Tinsel Christmas Tree. It was hard to pick a favorite because all the colored trees are so beautiful!! The silver tree is really pretty and would make a beautiful display in anyone’s home. I had no idea that Christmas trees came in so many different colors! Until I went to the Treetopia website after I went there I was amazed at all the different varieties of trees that they carry. Thank You Inspired by Charm for letting everyone know about Treetopia I had no idea that they existed until I seen the beautiful blue tree that was displayed on your website.

Biltmore Pine Tree in traditional green is my favorite….tho I do see a great deal of fun in the colored trees.
My heart beats a pitter patter for the Frosty Flocked Christmas Tree. It would look just marvelous with my snow day themed ornaments.
I love this tree! It’s so versatile. Thank you so much for the wonderful giveaway!
I follow on Instagram! My handle is emilymkrieger.
Oh, that site was so much fun. I have to say my favorite is the PIROUETTE PINE ROTATING TREE. Our friend has one and I love how you can see all the decorations because the tree spins slowly to show you the back.
I follow on instagram with http://instagram.com/heartofaphilanthropist/. PS. My birthday is December 22nd. This would be an awesome birthday surprise!

My favorite tree is the ALEXANDER FIR CHRISTMAS TREE with multicolored lights.
I signed up for your email.
The Alexander Fir Tree is realistic and beautiful when lit up, but who doesn’t love the mini flocked duo??? I pick the Alexander Fir for a classic look anyway.
The TREETOPIA BASICS – TRUE BLUE TREE Slim 6ft would look beautiful in my home, and is such a well built and beautiful tree..could so see this sitting here with gifts around it..Thank you for the chance
I think the Addison Spruce Christmas Tree in 9 foot would make an awesome statement! (I’ve never had a tree that tall!)
I love the Addison Spruce

I would love the Madison 7.5 ft tree with LED lights. Pretty please.
The Biltmore pine is my favorite! !
Michael, I so enjoy your posts. They are a inspiration! I love the idea that your kitties are enough decoration under the tree . Our two are much the same. We decorate around their whims. :))
If I were to win thin giveaway, I would choose the 71/2 foot “Oh Christmas Tree” with the multi colored lights. We were going with a live tree this year —it lasted less than a day due to allergies. Our neighbors are now enjoying that beautiful tree in their house. Oh well, we are making do with a small Christmas tree shaped ornament holder now for this year.
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Oh and Michael , I love your tree and the use of cooper!
Silvershine spruce tree is my favorite!

Ooh I love the “Oh Christmas tree” with clear lights and realistic needles.
I have been following your website, pinterest and by email for a long time and love everything you post. I love the giveaways, but somehow I never get registered. Hope this works. I love the light blue and pink trees. My living room is very “beachy”. It feels very casual and relaxing for me. My therapy is the ocean when I can get there, otherwise it’s gardening. If I had a formal living room I would even love the black tree. Very elegant. I hope I’m signed up for the tree giveaway. Hugs and Merry Christmas.

I have had the same artificial tree for 20 years and realize it’s showing its age. The newer trees are so much fuller and *pre-lit* — what a concept! The Treetopia Medison LED Pre-lit tree (6.5″) would be a perefct way to update my holiday look.
Thanks for the tips!
I love the Alexander Fir tree

Found your blog on pinterest when I saw your distressed sun sign. Super cool!
I like the blue tree in your post but I do not see it in the 6-6.5′ height so I would go with the OH Christmas Tree with the multi colored lights.

Oooh- I’d get a 6.5 foot Alexander Fir Tree with clear lights. I have been holding off on purchasing an artificial tree for years, but these are gorgeous and very realistic looking. Just put up the family tree this weekend and our 4 month old kitten thinks it is her personal playground ( good thing we have lots of indestructible ornaments that we can place down low… )
So cool! Your tree is gorgeous! I’d love the Whisper White Cashmere tree from Treetopia, it looks like a stunner 🙂
I follow you on Instagram, I’m @itskatemoore!

After seeing your navy tree, I think that’s my choice! It is awesome!
Pretty hard to choose just one, and as much as I would love another full sized tree, I think my current one is probably enough for now. The SNOW CAPPED MINI FLOCKED TREES would be perfect in my family room.
I follow on Instagram (mrshud).

I’m torn between the Chocolate Truffle and the Navy Blue, they are both gorgeous. Our wedding colors were brown and blue so…surprise me! I’d be thrilled with either.

Michael, love your Christmas decor. My fingers are crossed that I will get the Whisper White Cashmere 7′ tree, just so beautiful.

All my life I’ve had natural Christmas trees but so often wondered about these types of trees. The ones that come lit look so nice and will relief me from the difficult task of putting light on! I loved the SLIM SPRUCE CHRISTMAS TREE but also the MIA PENCIL TREE has an interesting form. Anyway, wishing me luck hahahah and I’ve followed you on IG like “for ever” (@idknowhowshedoesit). Just enrolled for in the mailing list. Thanks for this wonderful giveaway, Michael!
I would absolutely love to have “Oh Christmas Tree” . Even without decorations, the branches look like stars or snowflakes at each end. I was amazed at how realistic all the trees looked. If I was wondering in the endless Christmas tree forest, this is the one that would catch my eye and the one that I would keep coming back to.
I would love the 7 1/2 foot multi colored lights, Oh Christmas Tree.
I follow you on Instagram, ceeceecruiser.
I like the classic look of Christmas Trees, so my favorite is the Oh Christmas Tree.

We still don’t have a tree so I would love to win this. On the site I really like the addison spruce or the slim spruce.
Thank you for sharing the love. I would pick the silver tree:

I follow on Instagram @navajes

Love these trees!
These trees are beautiful! Would love to have a 6′ slim green spruce with multi-color lights or no lights. My tree is 25 years old and falling apart :/
The Stiletto Black pencil tree would look fantastic with my Barbie ornaments and hot pink glass ornaments on it.
The Frosty Flocked tree is beautiful. But then again, all of the trees look amazing.
Your holiday decorating is so pretty.

There were so many beautiful choices on Treetopia… I loved the same navy blue one that you chose as well as the white cashmere tree!

OK, the Some Like It Hot Pink 7′ tree is just signing to me. My two young daughters wouldn’t know what to do with themselves with a tree like this in their favorite color!
I would love the NO. 2 PENCIL CHRISTMAS TREE in 7.5ft w/o lights. The one I have now is a pencil tree bought from Target a few years ago. I love the fullness of the Treetopia trees and the picture of the rainbow ornaments on one.
With so many pretty trees, it’s so hard to decide. Right now I’d go with the ALEXANDER FIR CHRISTMAS TREE, but I could change my mind if I won.
