Nicely hello! Itβs that time once more! Iβve hosted this little shindig for six years now β crazy! It is time to collect collectively and show off your stunning Christmas trees and decor:
But initial, mine! π
We generally have four trees in our property β it sounds crazy but 1 Iβve never even decorated till this year:
And it was so easy and low cost β check it out here if you missed the bedroom tour earlier this week.
Another one is a real tree for the kiddoβs stuff β the fun 1 with colorful ornaments. I adore it. (Verify out last yearβs party to see it much more of that a single.)
These two are minimal work and do not take up considerably storage space.
A few years back I picked up a flocked tree for our newly completed basement:
Goodness, I really like this tree. It was from WalMart and Iβm nevertheless so content with it. It does not shed a ton of βsnowβ and you would believe it would. It is just so lovely.
Itβs only three pieces and super easy to set up β I had it up and fluffed within 30 minutes. Each and every Christmas break we pretty much hibernate in the basement for two straight weeks so it is beautiful to have this down there:
Of our 3 faux trees I consider this a single looks the most true. It will look spectacular a single day when that electric fireplace behind it is in fact built into the wall. Been dreaming up that project for years now. π
And our last oneβ¦I have a confession to make about our big tree. I get in touch with her Big Bertha. The Beast. Discomfort in my butt.
Sheβs enormous and I type of dread acquiring her out each and every year β is not that awful? When sheβs up Iβm so satisfied but the method wears me out. My husband goes along with pretty considerably all of my ideas for decor about the residence and rarely has a robust opinion about thingsβ¦but this tree is his baby. He loves Christmas decor and loves. this. tree.
Final year he was out of town and my sister helped me get all the pieces down from the garage β I believed I would be able to make issues a bit less complicated by creating it 10 feet tall as an alternative of 12 feet (I didnβt put the bottom piece of the tree on so it was shorter).
Swear to God he noticed when he walked in the door β nobody would ever notice!! He did. So this year he pulled it down and we set up his infant in it is full glory.
Twelve feet of tree takes some time to decorate β and itβs a workout on the ladder. One more explanation this tree wipes me out? The cats Love IT. Our insane kitty actually climbs up about the inside of it and will poke his head out the leading. It drives me definitely crazy:
But last night I was taking photographs of it and I have to inform youβ¦after pulling the cat out for the 15th time, my heart warmed and I just sat and appreciated Bertha:
That snowflake is created from the old Hoosier Dome leading for you locals by the way β we spent a lot of time there back in the day so I had to get one particular. π
She is a beast but my goodnessβ¦she is spectacular:
Itβs all worth it. π And I enjoy that my husband loves the tree so dang a lot:
Though Iβd be fine if this guy lost a tiny of the enjoy:
Iβm not gonna lie β I got a little emotional standing there last evening, just taking a moment to get pleasure from it.
It is magnificent. π Hereβs the view from our second level:
My βFa la laβ prints went back into the frames and they reflect the light beautifully:
And of course a little bokeh in
no way hurts:
Whew. It is a lot of work but following all is mentioned and doneβ¦so worth it. There is Practically nothing like sitting by a lit up tree with all the lights off, am I right? So grateful.
Now I canβt wait to see your tree and decor! Hyperlink up here β and if youβd like to hyperlink back to TDC it would be appreciated but it is not mandatory.
Iβll be back on Monday β Iβm at the moment in freak out mode to get all the shopping done. ) Have a fantastic weekend my buddies!!
