What Christmas decorations are you putting up?

I need to buy a whole new set of Christmas decorations. We haven't really bothered with Christmas decorations before but now we have a child we're going to start. I've noticed DD (4mo) loves looking at lights so we're getting a 6ft fibre optic white Christmas tree.

What other decorations would you suggest? :)

this year have noticed lots of really colourful baubals so happy about that! hate themed red/gold stuff

Yes I don't fancy the traditional red, gold and green. Hence why we got the white tree.

I was thinking white, silver and pink.

What kinds of Christmas decorations are there other than the obvious tree.

We have built up our decorations over the years.

We haven't gone with a colour theme, but our children are now nearly 11 and 9, we have accumulated a lot of 'home-made decorations' over the years- even for me it's surprising how sentimental you get when you see them year after year!

In our house we have to take it in turn for the girls to put the star on the top of the tree (and they also rememBer who's turn it is!), but our younger daughter loves the story of how we got one decoration (she was born on Xmas Eve, and this 'thing' was left on her crib in the hospital when 'Santa' visited her- it now has pride of place on the Chrsitmas tree!
