@MrsMotherHen
Your house looks amazing. I can’t believe that tree is 6 ft. I’m in awe of your fireplace.

Motherhen do you live in a Tudor mansion!? Check out those panels! Is your house really old?

MyKidAreTakingMySanity your picture is so calming. I can’t stop looking at it.

Loving all the trees btw. Ours isn’t going up until the 15th.

I hope @Pradaqueen shows us her tree. It was stunning last year ( can't actually believe it was a year ago)

BarchesterFlowers · 02/12/2017 12:36

I am enjoying all these photos - we did make a start on our tree yesterday but my lights broke - well they didn't but there was a spark from the transformer so I threw them away and ordered more (due tomorrow).

Mine is an antidote to the tasteful trees on this thread. There is no theme, just a tree full of 'things' collected over the last 30 years including things made by children that are now grown up. Tons of memories.

I seem to have lots of decorations left over this year which is a bit puzzling, I have only bought two small glass things this year.

Playroom

Really long trunk, so it takes up less room

Underneath you can just see the sofa and chair

OuchBollocks · 02/12/2017 12:42

This is ours, it went up yesterday. I think maybe a few more baubles, but the tree itself is so pretty. Its my first ever real tree :)

@BarchesterFlowers
Mine, when it’s done is exactly the same. I have three matching garlands draped around the tree then the rest are memories. Some were my dgm. The fairy is made of China and I think 50 years old. I always get emotional putting up my tree lol x

Jumblebee · 02/12/2017 13:11

@BOOOOOiesEvilEye your kitchen is beautiful!! Shock kitchen envy! (And tree envy too)

BarchesterFlowers · 02/12/2017 14:14

Whatkatydid, I wouldn't have it any other way, DH has mentioned the word 'vomit' in relation to how my tree looks/decorations are arranged Xmas Grin, 'get stuffed' is a complete sentence.

It just shows how life moves on - my nephew is now in a big corporate role, when I look at the little felt man he made for my tree I always feel quite emotional, then there are the decs DH and I sent each other when we were apart for really long spells and missed Christmas together, the Hama bead things and felt things friends children have made, DD has made etc., etc..

BOOOOOiesEvilEye · 02/12/2017 14:39

Jumble thank you, I can't take credit for it though as it was like that when we moved in Smile

Prokupatuscrakedatus · 02/12/2017 15:20

Lovely trees - all of them!!

Ours traditionally goes up on the 24th (morning) so I can't show a picture, yet.
But since we have our cat I cannot use my much loved (and old) straw deorations. The tree has to go outside with weatherproof red and gold baubles and lights.

But I'll decorate the windows tonight.

yawning801 · 02/12/2017 15:22

Ours is going up tomorrow. Excited!

whatkatydidnext1 · 02/12/2017 15:27

@BarchesterFlowers
Ds started uni this year. I’m just about to put his little gingerbread man he made at preschool on the tree. I’ll post a pic of my old angel just for you. I love every bodies trees but yes mines a mish mash. I also buy tree decorations when I visit places I love. Also my favourites are my chime Coalport snowmen brought in the sales 20 yrs ago x

whatkatydidnext1 · 02/12/2017 15:28

China not chime

Insomnibrat · 02/12/2017 17:24

Here's our main tree

MissRainbowBrite · 02/12/2017 17:32

All these trees look gorgeous. We’ve had a new 7.5ft artificial tree this year and I’m really happy with it....took bloody ages to fluff it all up and decorate though.

Debby08 · 02/12/2017 17:36

I'm in the process of making a rainbow themed Christmas tree. I saw it in one of the threads here and it's the loveliest :) I'll share pictures when I'm done with it.
