Please, do not judge me for thinking about this in april xoxo

<Spoiler - it's a thread from last Christmas about unlikely tree decorations>

😄🥰🎄

Off i go for a nose

You what?

That veiled tree is an abomination, looks like it's been covered in a cloth while painting the room.
I will have the same decorations I've had for the past twenty odd years, with a few more recent additions. I bought good quality ones so they would last. I don't buy plastic ones, all the baubles are glass or metal wire, about half are glass droplets in various shapes, the others are round or stars.

The colours are clear, gold, silver and copper and I have a real tree. Lights are warm white static. If I see a beautiful bauble I'll buy it, a couple of years ago John Lewis had some lovely indented vintage-looking gold glass baubles so I bought a few, but last Christmas I thought they had awful ones.

I used to put lametta on the tree, haven't used tinsel since about 1990, but now just have lights and baubles.

I think it's appalling to just change the colour theme every year and throw away a load of cheap plastic tat every year, such a waste and so bad for the environment.

Nothing. I don't have a Christmas tree and haven't done in around 20 years. I just like buying presents and spending time with my family.

You dont have a tree? 🥺

You sure youre not depressed girl??

In all seriousness, do you at least buy nice presents?

I might have to think about lametta this year for my gold tree

😩 i'd get bored having the same aesthetic every year me

Your tree looks a good quality as well 👀

Oooo I’m thinking white and gold this year! Last year I did gold and burgandy. This doesn’t really apply to the tree which has everything but the kitchen sink on it but i theme the mantle, wreath and table decorations, plus have a swag above the back doors to the garden. I have loads of wrapping paper so will try and use predominantly white and gold, but can’t be too strict about it.
I don’t buy many new decs. I have boxes and boxes and can usually cater to whatever theme I’ve got going. The exception would be the wreath as I often make my own.
