I have a little pewter bat with a smily face Christmas decoration hanging from my Christmas tree along with the usual lights and baubles. A souvenir from some caves near Austin Texas (where we were stuck on 9.11) which had lots of bats living there.
My girlfriends flatmate/landlord only got rid of last years tree in October. I dont think she should be allowed to have another :tongue:
We have an designer/avante garde one. Or so SWMBO calls it. I call it twigs that have been spray painted gold. It's not up yet but no doubt it'll be up this weekend.
For me I think you might have over done it a bit Char....I'm more into the minimalist approach to christmas decorations personally.
We have nowt in our house, SWMBO is not keen. She puts the cards out on Christmas Eve; they are in the bin on boxing day ! I have a sparkly 4" plastic tree by the stereo in the garage - spend most of my time in there anyway !!
Her Ladyship will put a fairly good fake tree with all the lights, baubles and tinsel in the last week before Christmas..... ..........within two hours it will be on it's side and and every eight hours after that, as the two cats proceed to 'investigate' (or in other words, we have vandal cats). AL
We've got five up this year, 7' in the living room, 5' in the playroom, and each of the kids has got a 3' one in their bedrooms, a pink one for the baby girl, green for the four year old, and a black one with black lights for the teenage boy. Loving Christmas in our house.
