What's on top of your tree?

Think it is time for a new tree topper.

So, what should I go for?

Star?
Angel?
Bow?
Something else?

I'd love to hear what is on top of your tree to help me make this life-changing decision!

I like a star. I also have a robin that lost its eye and gold string that's sits on top of the wooden star now. It's a bit more pagan 🙂

We have a happy gingerbread man! We replaced our tired and shabby star which we used for 11 years.

Probably cobwebs, it's still in the loft 😅

I have a robin for mine. My parents have Jack Frost.

I went to a Craft and Flea fair on Saturday. There was a stall with decorations depicting icons. The tree toppers were a Twiggy Angel, an Aladdin Sane era Bowie, Elvis and couple of others I can’t remember. I bought a Christmas decoration - she had lots of different people including Mick Jagger, Cher, Eartha Kit and Liza Minnelli

Pg tips monkey in a Christmas jumper on one and a Norwegian style folksy angel on the other. Or at least, there will be in about 12 days time.

My tree is not up yet, but when it is our angel is Jimi Hendrix.

The cow angel is fantastic! I'm loving the variety!

I knitted him for my H. We say he has 50 weeks out of his tree when he lives on the shelf next to the TARDIS, and 2 weeks in his tree when he's on Angel duty.

We usually have a star, but this year we had to have our beautiful white cat pts, and when I spotted this I had to buy it in her honour.

The tree’s not up yet but I hope the little ginger boy menace we adopted respects her memory and leaves it alone!

We've just had a basic star more recently but we used to let DC pick what went on top when they were young. One year we had a rubber ducky with devil horns.

Tudor lady on one, dove with a bow on another.

An angel bought from WH Smith in 1994. Our first Christmas in our house. I don't put my tree up until around 20th December though, so she is still in the loft.

Mr Hanky the Christmas poo.

I found this mince pie guy in church.
He's adorable, and he's staying put!

Makes a change from my usual star.... .
