Ruby Tuesday: A Christmas Tree with a Touch of Red
December 22, 2008 | Filed Under Christmas, Colors, Holiday Decorations, Holidays, Red, Window Shopping
I’ve seen a lot of Christmas trees in store windows. The tree that caught my interest, this year, stands in the window of the Steuben Glass, a glass and crystal store. The tree is made of several small glass sculptures that hang off red ribbons.
Steuben Glass is located at 61st Street and Madison Avenue on the East Side.
There is quite a collection of glass ornaments. I spot a Nutcracker, Snowman and Christmas Stocking.
This Angel ornament is my favorite.
I like the heart, too.
I wanted to take a closer look at the stockings. Very nice!
My unofficial guess is that there are 5307 glass ornaments on the tree. The store was closed, so I couldn’t go inside the store to register my guess. How many ornaments do you think are on the tree?
To see other photos that display the color red and to learn how to participate in this Ruby Tuesday photo blogging event, go to WORK OF THE POET.

That is a stunning tree, and is beautiful, indeed. we couldn’t have one here, though. The cats would make things hard as they started playing with the shiny toys on the ‘tree’…
Oh my, that’s so pretty! Love it.
Wow! What a creative X’mas “tree”.
Merry X’mas and a Happy New Year! Have Fun!

That tree is gorgeous! I love the angels and the stockings.
Hi ya Paz..now that’s one beautiful tree!! If the wind blows and the crystals jingle..it must have made such beautiful sound. However, I am not letting my kids near that tree for sure
Here’s wishing you a Merry and Blessed Christmas Paz and hig hugs always
Stunning…absolutely breathtaking.
Hi Paz… wishing you a very Merry, Merry Christmas. Miss you. xo
Interesting series. Lovely shots, especially the cloe-ups of the glass ornaments.
All I can say is “wow”. It’s beautiful and what work it must have been to make all those ornaments. 5307 you think? I’m smiling that you figured out those last seven
Wow!! This looks so pretty, I love it!! What a great way to show off the ornaments they sell!
Merry Christmas Paz!

Very creative tree, love the twinkling glass with the red ribbons!
Wow! I’d hate to 1.Have counted all of those, 2.Put them on the tree (how many broke??) and 3.Take them all down!!
If you find out how many….be sure to let us know!
Hi Paz….that truly is an amazing tree…I like it. My favorite is the heart, then the angel. Thanks for sharing this unique vision!
Wishing you a fabulous and happy New Year, not just the eve and day, but also the year to come.
