That's really pretty OP! I can't photograph mine as my phone's out of order! Mine's a big real one with warm white lights and a mush of old glass ornaments...all colours!

Looking forward to seeing them all!

There's our tree, decorated by me. And the kids' tree, which looks like it's been dragged through a Christmas shop backwards! Xmas Grin 🎄😂

Ohh OP I love your little bird houses 😍

Unfortunately we're not putting our tree up until DP relents and moves his hobby table into the kitchen (hopefully sooner rather than later as he gets desperate to put the tree up as soon as December starts!)

I will be very grateful to have something other than his warhammer plastic crap to look at for the next few weeks 😂😂

Hen I do like a good fake though...I have a lovely one from Balsam Trees and I am planning to put it in the kitchen. I like their more predictable branches...easier to decorate and no mess!

That's them there. They are super bright, I always leave a couple of bulbs dead to make them not so bright but you can't notice at all.

@buckbeak
I love your base. Just seen them on amazon but I want to be able to get one tomorrow. Can I ask where you got your please ? Has anyone seen them in the shops ? I did notice John Lewis sell them but that’s a bit more of a trip Confused

what apparently home bargains are selling them if you have one near you. They have been seen in Poundland too but not for £1. I’m after one too.

Here's mine...i wasnt intending to do it until tomorrow but I got the tree out of its box to put the box back in the loft and once I started I just couldn't stop Xmas Grin . I was up until almost 1am last night putting the finishing touches to it. Just need to add some nice gold Lindt chocolate bears.

@WhatCanIDoNowPlease I got mine from a garden centre, they sell them in lots of them. The amazon ones are really not good.

buckbeak · 01/12/2017 20:49

Sorry posted too soon, my neighbour purchased the amazon one and it's half the height, so doesn't fully cover the base of the tree. I paid £20 for mine from my local garden centre, bents if you have one near.
