Red Gold Christmas Ornaments

Nothing conjures up images of Christmas for me like red gold Christmas Ornaments. Some how the combination of red contrasted with gold reminds me of royalty and pageantry.

One year my father carved several little Cardinal birds for our christmas tree. I love these little ornaments. They are very similar to these:

These cute little birds come 12 in a pack and are about 4 1/2 inches long from tip to tail, though they are not hand carved by my father, they are very interesting, unique Christmas tree decorations that your family will cherish for years.

Sometimes we even put the little birds on our mantle nesting on the garland that we place there. The contrast of bright red and the dark green of the garland is very festive.

There are several options when it comes to these red birds:

Red Cardinal Christmas Tree Ornaments

10" In the Birches Red Cardinal Bird Christmas Ornament

Country Red Cardinal Christmas Tree Ornament with Twine Ribbon 3.5"

Package of 12 Bright Red Flying Artificial Cardinal Birds with Clips for Christmas Tree Ornaments

3" Nature"s Glow Feathered Red Song Bird Clip-On Christmas Ornament

I am also fond of red gold Christmas tree ornaments balls, especially the red balls that are shiny with gold accents. These are basics that are a must have for any Christmas tree being decorated in a red and gold motif.

The way the lights glitter off of these special ornaments makes for a warm and inviting evening around your Christmas tree while you enjoy the holiday season.
