Here is our main one.  It is 7 1/2 ft, but now with the new house we are in...stinking ceilings are making it look tiny. LOL!! OP: your tree is lovely!  |

I had some issues with our lights this year, strand failure. I ended up tearing the whole tree down and starting over, so there are a few strands with half the lights not working. I had to pitch a whole strand too, but we have light! All I did was the tree, lights, and star. My daughters did the rest.  |

Wow, what beautiful trees you all have! I usually do white lights it is pretty dark where I keep the tree but this year I decided to be different and use colored lights. I'm not really sure if I like it because the new LED lights are so bright and the corner so dark that you can't really see the ornaments very well. Oh well. Attachments:

I know it isn't huge, and I wish I would have gotten white string for my lights, but this is our first year putting up a tree, we just bought a house this year, and we wanted something small because we weren't sure what the cats would do. The desk was my father in laws, so we used it to make a fake fireplace to incorporate something of his since he passed away several years ago. I made the topper and the skirt. I like it for my first ever tree!

Every year for the last 16 years I have had a tree that is covered in mainly kids hand made decorations. A few weeks ago I saw a really cool rainbow tree on Pinterest and thought I'd do that this year. All that's on the tree are baubles and lights. Obviously it doesn't look as good as the one I saw on Pinterest, but at least mine is not a total Pinterest fail! I was a bit disappointed that the entire bottom row of branches on my tree have broken off this year so it looks way too sparse underneath. Oh, and I need to find a big gold star to put on the top.  |

Everybody's trees are so beautiful. And Linda-Lou, uggg; I'm sorry.  tinyt: is the garland on your bannister real? It's beautiful, and mine definitely doesn't turn out that good. As a matter of fact, I didn't even put it up this year. I think it's my garland though; might be time to switch it up. I love seeing how people decorate their bannisters and fireplaces, too. |

Sdeven, I love your nativity scene!
I've been looking for a great nativity scene. This year my mom surprised me with a snow globe with a nativity scene and it plays Silent Night.
AussieMeg, I love the rainbow tree! If I were you, I'd get some red fabric and drape it under the tree--it will hide the thin lower branches.
I don't have an actual tree skirt. I have a couple of yards of this gorgeous silky blue material that I just drape under the tree.
Y'all have gotten me into the holiday spirit. I think I'll surprise my dh and put up the tree while he's at work today so we can decorate it tonight. We bought new ornaments this year, and I want to see them on our tree. --We've bought a special ornament for each year we've been married. It's so much fun to decorate the tree and take a trip down memory lane. 14 years already.
Dh has had his Charlie Brown Christmas tree at work since Thanksgiving. His vacation starts early next week, so he took the box back to work today to bring his tree home. He doesn't want to leave it while he's gone because it might walk off. Everyone loves it.

I don't have an actual tree skirt. I have a couple of yards of this gorgeous silky blue material that I just drape under the tree. That's what I do. I have a lovely piece of red and black plaid silky taffeta that I used many years ago to make a Victorian Christmas dress, and the remaining yardage makes up my tree skirt just draped under the tree. |
