Default O Christmas Tree....

Put up our tree a little early this year because we have friends visiting. Changed our theme from traditional to whimsical! How does everyone else decorate their tree??

As we decided to downsize with our move here, I gave ALL Christmas decor away. Our tree now is made of driftwood with a small star on top. I am happy!

The first year we were in the Villages I grabbed the Christmas Party Table Decoration (a one foot Christmas Tree). We use that !

It is a portrait I painted of my daughter when she was 13. She is now 42.

She is, or was, a beautiful child and you are very talented, and I liked your Christmas tree too!

Traditional in red, white and green. We did break down and buy an artificial one last year for the first time. We always had a tradition of walking in the woods as a family and cutting one down before.
We put it up this week since family is coming on Sunday for a week from Pa.

That's lovely, and so is your room arrangement. I love what you did with the slider window treatment.

And the kitties remind me of Queenie Beans (dear departed), aka Her Highness the Furnace. Sweetie doesn't bring anyone to mind, but he looks nice too!
