I need some inspiration to dig out the Christmas tree and get the bugger put up. Can I see yours?

Not so much ruby red as sapphire blue and gold

@flexigirl your room looks lovely 🥰. So Christmassy and cosy.

Our tree, decorated solely by the kids this year 😁

We've got two-why did I do that? Took hours and hours to organise!

Gosh you're organised! Wrapping all those presents already

Couldn't be bothered this year so left the middle part of the tree out and it's loads shorter. I had some lovely dried foliage to add so I'm pleased with that and the mouse that's moved in underneath the tree.

Definitely not 😁 those are the kids advent presents from their grandma! My wrapping will come much later, accompanied by Bailey's and many darkly muttered comments of discontent by DH when I make him wrap as well (he really hates wrapping!)

I went for jewel colours this year, it looks very colourful.
I don’t feel remotely Christmassy (yet)

I love this! Xmas Smile

This is ours, complete with toilet roll decorations.

oh that’s nice of the the DC’s DGM!

ahh ok that’s how my wrapping tends to go too. That reminds me… need to put Baileys on the shopping list

43ontherocksporfavor · 05/12/2023 20:21

Can’t believe some have wrapped gifts under the tree! I never do that until Christmas Eve. I worry about burglary!

flexigirl · 05/12/2023 20:25

Thank you ! @mummymayhem18 Smile I decorate the whole room for every different season to sort of differentiate for our very handicapped daughter . Not sure what she understands of it all but the effort is worth it seeing her little face looking round in wonder whenever the room is magically different again

baubletits · 05/12/2023 20:27

It was a lovely surprise for them ☺️ they're just little gifts like milkshake straws, squishy toys etc but it's another thing to be excited for in the run up to Christmas. And thinking of so many little gifts and wrapping them individually must have taken ages!

ThisHouseWillBeTheDeathOfMe · 05/12/2023 20:30

flexigirl · 05/12/2023 19:09

This is mine. Gone all traditional now with a woodland theme .

Oooooh where is the stag head from please?

flexigirl · 05/12/2023 20:34

@ThisHouseWillBeTheDeathOfMe it's from lights4fun . We found the original lights that were on it a bit bright so I snipped them off and replaced with a string of the premier decorations red and vintage gold colour which has made it look lots better I think

Thank you so much!

I've just bought their family of reindeer for the garden, I thought it looked like the same brand. You've done an absolutely beautiful job there, it's gorgeous!

Mumof118 · 05/12/2023 20:47

I need a new tree, but we’re going to get one more year out of this one.

I’d love a real tree. But I’m not sure I could deal with the needles falling off as it ages. Love the smell though.

Some of these trees are absolutely smothered in decs. I don’t have that many baubles even after 30 years!

Loving our tree 💚

This is lovely, you incentivised me, and I’ve just added some red baubles to my fireplace wreath 😍
