Do you decorate?

Got the lights on the tree...

Started decorating the tree yesterday by putting on the lights. But one-half of the larger string doesn't light up. Can't figure out why. Tried the usual bulb replacement, etc. and it still doesn't work. So the project was halted until I go out today and buy another string of Christmas tree lights.

Maybe if we ever get grandkids. Not sure we really need to though, the place sort of decorates itself:



Cheers and happy holidays!!

Have to find the lights first, probably packed away somewhere. Already have purple blinking lights around the big TV, just need a string on top across the patio slider. No tree.

I don't but my better half does.
I'll help if asked.

Another reason to be positive... I won Honorable Mention...! For my fishing themed display!

And I made it in the paper with Santa!

not so much this year....I've got a lot of stuff going on at work, so it likely just won't get done. We still haven't put up our tree (yeah, we got a fake one with lights----don't judge until you've tried it multiple years in a row...lol). probably will put it up this weekend.

We have not had a real tree in 25+ years which I am thoroughly bummed about. One of my daughters is very allergic to the pollen on a real tree so we do what we can to have a festive environment. One of these years when she will not be around for Christmas, I will buy a 14' Noble for our living room and decorate it with hundred's of vintage ornaments (20's - 60's). Then to top it all off, I have 3 never opened boxes of real leaded tinsel as the finishing touch. Harkens back to 60's when I was growing up...

I do miss the smell.

Everything else, not so much.

Why is it harder and take more time to take a tree down than to put it up and decorate it?

Zero interior decor this year. We are in the midst of a remodel, essentially living in a bedroom and dining on Stouffers’ microwaved in the garage and sandwiches.

I do not kill trees. But do buy too much plastic even after about 55 years of precycling with limited success. Only decorating I do is for Halloween.

Might need to add to next year's decorations!

Okay. That is a beautiful cat. Might be the best I have ever seen. Please tell me from a litter of regular tabbys/alley type cats? Or did you pay for that thing?
.
Gorgeous markings.
