To think DH forfeited the right to be a bauble-y fucker when he didn't help put up the Christmas tree?

He's a spoony fucker as well, so I shouldn't be surprised... Because ut he declared himself "not fussed" about doing the tree (it is a bit early, but it's a very busy month, and we'd never have been able to actually enjoy it if it didn't go up this week).

Then last night, in an accusatory tone "PaM, there are three sparkly ones together there, I'm going to swap one".

He kept hopping up to move a bauble two branches to the left, or would move one and then have move another four because he'd ended up with two red matte ones next to each other.

Does anybody else's turn into the Llewelyn-sodding-Bowen of the Christmas tree?! I wouldn't have minded so much if he'd hung up some of them (150+) in the first place!

My tree looks like I threw the ornaments at it and just kept what stuck, so my Bauble-y fuckker of a son will turn up Christmas eve and rearrange it, he always does it's a family joke and we don't mind.
But should ever grab a wodden spoon I'll stick him under the patio. No spoony fuckers allowed

@UtterlyUnimaginativeUsername YES! I knew someone else would do it!

@Gummygoddess I do this too! Seasonal! Usually on the sideboard, occasionally moved to the coffee table if we have guests 😁 currently a mix of chocolate foils 🍬

Problem solved here by using the same colour baubles all over the tree.

Another problem solved by packing it carefully away without removing them.

It does remove some of the fun but saves a lot of changing round of baubles.

Admit to not being a fan of Christmas really, so realise this wouldn't work for everyone.

My DH keeps trying to add shit to my tastefully artful (or is it artfully tasteful?) mantel decor of topiary, red berries, candles, and twinkly lights. No, it doesn’t need fecking pine cones or baubles. Leave it alone!!!

I'm a Monika. Just watched the episode of friends where Phoebe etc. can't believe they're being allowed to decorate the tree while Monika had symmetrically decorated her side of the tree and just spun it around to show her side lol. I have been known to spend days rearranging the baubles until I'm happy with the arrangement. I have never rearranged anyone else's tree however.

I have found my people. OH claims glory for the tree in our living room. His white tree in the hall he did.

Might have to adjust his baubles.

He too is a spoony fucker. I look forward to telling him this when he steals the duvet/farts loudly in a minute.
