Show us your Christmas trees

[BookyGilly]

Long time lurker. Even longer Christmas lover. Here's my tree from last year. Please share photos and spread the joy of the season. I will never apologise for being a Christmas addict.

I love our tree, we've had it years but we're finally getting a real tree this year and I'm EXCITED!

It's a rainbow 'throw everything at it' style. Most decorations from the Disney store and lego over the years! It's very silly and it makes me happy. Star at the top made 10 years ago by 4 year old DC!

(Excuse the horrible black wallpaper. We'd just moved in. Thankfully all redecorated now!)

So happy to have found this Christmas-loving thread!! This is ours from last year, plan is to get a real one this year and I'm so excited to pick it out 🥰

Skinny white one in the dining room, everything goes in sitting room

Wow @MrsMitford3 it's gorgeous! Off to add lametta to my shopping list...

Love this thread! There are so many joyful, beautiful trees 🎄 I think @MrsMitford3 takes the (Christmas) cake for me, it's gorgeous 😍

Here are our two from last year - the 7ft one in our main living room upstairs, and then a narrow 6ft one in the kids' playroom/snug.

We bought the 7ft one for our old house with deceptively high ceilings, but we've moved house since and I'm still going to try to fit it into our new living room, and keep two trees! Maybe one in the dining room? I love letting the kids loose with the colourful decorations on one tree 😄

Ours last year, I think this was early morning just before the unwrapping :)

This was the final year for our 20 year old tree - on the tilt and quite a few internal branches missing....How I don't know - it goes away in the same box every year...bizarre!

Opps....

3rd time lucky....

Last year, I went very 80s with all the colours.

Christmas tree threads are my favourite threads every year. It makes me so happy to see everyone’s trees and how much love goes into them. @MrsMitford3 and @TrickyD your trees are so lovely!

tree one (8ft ancient b and q eiger tree that I just love and have never found a tree I like more) and tree two (7ft pencil tree that I shove wherever it’ll fit 😂)

Last year's "Christmas tree through doorway" shot.

This is lovely, where are the candle lights from please?

The kitchen ones are fake 😳 I just wrapped empty boxes and then any wine / bottled gifts are stored in the wooden crate until gifting time. Real presents go under the lounge tree < which I then shake / lift / listen too intently working out what DH may of gotten me>

When you say zillions of lights... Are these one huge set of cluster lights? Or multiple sets of standard ones please?

The lady that dresses the trees (which are spectacular) in our local garden centre told me to wind up and down each individual branch, which does look loads better... But still nowhere near as lit as yours, is there a technique you use?

John Lewis do them.

i bought those lights many years ago in The Netherlands. They clip on to the branches.

i know it’s a tree thread but I also do my door and entranceway too and love sharing Xmas stuff 🙈 I’ve got thicker garland this year to make the doorway look better

@Edgeofthesea love the trees but also, where are you that you had snow! I’m down in the SE and apart from a light sprinkling in February (if we’re lucky), I can only dream of snow in December 😍

Our tree last year, there is no theme and has even homemade salt dough ornaments. Made almost a decade ago. Every year we buy new baubles/decorations for it.

@Xmastreefreak Your doorway looks amazing! I bet it's really popular with kids when they are passing by. I'm going to try a garland round my front door this year. 🤞

Here are my trees,
disney themed in the sitting room.
Ginger bread in the dining room and a tree in the hall with baubles from all the places we’ve visited.

Only one (very beautiful) tree showing for me.

I’ve just googled lametta but need to know more. It looks like fine silver threads??? Are they attached to each other or are they all separate? How do you put it on the tree?
