Browse Forums Interior Decorating Lounge 1 Nov 15, 2010 8:29 pm I know it's only the 15th of November, but as the Christmas beetles made an appearance on friday night I decided it was a good a time as any to get my Christmas Tree out of storage. And thus we have the 'Show me your Christmas Tree' thread. Re: Show me your Christmas Tree (and other festive tit-bits! 2Nov 15, 2010 8:33 pm I'll kick things off - here is our tree... I haven't put any other decorations up yet as we're still waiting on a new TV cabinet which is going to replace the one in the left of this image. And I don't generally go too overboard anyway as our house is so tiny but the tree is loaded with baubles and other stuff (there's not a bare branch) Re: Show me your Christmas Tree (and other festive tit-bits! 3Nov 15, 2010 8:38 pm very pretty! I'll put a pic of ours up when I put it up. maybe will do it a bit earlier this year "Your emotions are the slaves to your thoughts, and you are the slave to your emotions." — Elizabeth Gilbert Living in our new house.

Far too early for that for me but I wasn't going to rebox it either so it is sitting in a corner of the room looking rather forlorn. Re: Show me your Christmas Tree (and other festive tit-bits! 8Nov 16, 2010 2:08 pm VERY nice Ikon!! Aren't you organised!!! We are doing a tree at our place for the first time this year (our first xmas here, as last xmas we went back to NZ) - so went off to get my decorations last weekend - now all I need is the tree!!! Does anyone know whether real trees being sold on the road-side is the 'done thing' here? Very common back home... otherwise it will be another trip tree shopping!

Re: Show me your Christmas Tree (and other festive tit-bits! 10Nov 16, 2010 4:33 pm The christmas decorations never come out before the 1st of December, bad enough they are in the shops already. So no pic from us until after the 1st plus we still dont know were we are going to put the tree in the new house.

OOHH thank you!!! I will hold out and keep my eyes peeled! That is my plan too, to buy one after xmas at hopefully a reduced price for when I don't want a 'real' one - the novelty may wear off after the first year when I have all the 'tree-bits' to clean up!
