Madison Avenue




This is the last of our 2012 trees, and certainly one of our favorites. Our Madison Avenue trend is inspired by the Mad Men craze that is not only dominating the airwaves, but spreading into fashion and home decor. Martini lunches, high-waisted pencil skirts, and tweed suits are all making a comeback in a re-imagined, modern way.



The Madison Avenue color palette includes iconic colors of the 60's: bronze orange and avocado green with pops of fuscia and vibrant blue. We wrapped our tree in thick satin ribbon, intertwining the orange and green into a floppy bow at the top. Blue glitter bulbs peek out from the branches, along with copper glitter stars and matte green bulbs.



From our collections, we chose some of our large, glitter flats in gold, fuscia and silver, tied with brightly-colored satin ribbons. We also selected iconic pieces, including our peep-toe shoe ornament in blue, our martini ornament, glitter wine bucket ornament, silver glitter peace sign and pewter ornaments from our NYC collection.


Packages were wrapped in a mixture of colors, from copper to blue and interspersed with a patterned paper of bright orange flowers. For each package we tied one of our ornaments to the bow which can be engraved on the back and used as a gift tag!
