Non judgemental Christmas Decorations thread.

[PriamFarrl]

A thread to show your decorations.

If you don’t like what someone has done then just keep it to yourself.

We've had a complete change this year.

Show off yours!

I know you said non judgemental and they are beautiful. But it's November. Big fat no from me.

But it’ll be December in the week. Lots of people near us have them up already. I also posted on the Christmas page for just this reason.

@luckylavender this is Christmas board!

Looks lovely, OP. Where did you get your tree from? 😊

Yet you're on the Christmas board? 🤔

It's the last weekend before Dec so it's all go go go! OP are we allowed to comment that yours are beautiful? 🤪

I haven’t got my tree up yet, but I do have lights around the mantel. Love your tree OP

Beautiful!

I’ve broken my own rule and put a string of lights on the staircase tonight, so no judgement from me - it’s so hyggelig and it really doesn’t matter that it’s one day too early; tomorrow Advent starts which is when I put out the first few things.

🎄🎄🎄

Pretty!

I like it

Thank you for the kind comments. The tree is from John Lewis. It’s new this year. We always had a traditional one before.

Anyone else want to show off theirs?

Very first post in and the 'its November' brigade are out. Do you not realise this is the Christmas board 😂

They are really pretty, I especially love the tree. Colours are lovely.

Small snapshot of mine. After finally getting my grubby mitts on my Great Grandmothers glass baubles last year (can see 3 of them on here) I changed theme. I call it “whatever the fuck I want”

I love the classic ones with the ‘dimples’ in them (I don’t know how else to describe it).

I don't know what all the fuss is about this year, people talking about 70's and 80's decs. Traditional and old.

I love that Father Christmas one! Is it a vintage one CottageEmo?

@Margepettifer I got it this year, I think it was from John Lewis

Thank you! I shall get myself down to JL! X😁

All the talk of TEOTWAWKI and sustainability (as well as the financial situation) has made people think about re-using stuff

The war, energy bills, climate crisis, culture wars and so forth are making people think fondly of what they see of a simpler time, frequently when they themselves were young and unburdened

(as, dammit)

All the talk of TEOTWAWKI

I had to go and listen to that song

Christmas decorations do go through fashions - I look in the shops and think "Oh I don't like that" but everyone has different tastes and I'm sure a lot of people wouldn't like mine .
I know our cats are very judgey so we don't have a tree now

What a great thread. Please show more! I need some inspiration.

I did this in my living room rather than a tree this year then put my tree up in a different corner and I love it.

The igloo cost about £20 and I had all the penguins anyway.

The kids did ours this weekend. There's a lovely cosy feeling about the place now.

We decided to get a second tree the same as our first one. It’s a lot I know but our old one was 25 years old.

Love it! What a fantastic idea. Did you come up with it yourself?

I did indeed.

I usually come up with some sort of excessive craft project and go OTT, this one is definitely my favourite though.

Its just a cardboard igloo from hobbycraft, I think it was £18, painted the ice blocks on, cut the fake snow on top (that cost £2 or £3) and then stuck a disco light I had inside it and put the penguins around it.

I'll be sad when I have to take it down, but I'm working on a massive Audry 2 from Little Shop Of Horrors which might go there if it turns out OK. I'm doing a film theme in the living room next year. Goodness knows what's going to happen next Christmas 🤣 I have an idea though

I love the igloo. How big is it? It’s hard to judge the scale.
