Makes me want to try a different colour theme every year! Not keen on their upsidedown trees though ;D

No I don't like them either. I did purple and silver for a change a few years ago. It was a nice change but then I went off it again and gave everything away.  |

Purple and silver is lovely.
Our little tree this year is completely different to usual. I normally do gold. That tree has every colour under the rainbow on it - makes a nice change!

My tree is always mish mash...I was going to try white lights and minimal decs on it one year but decided I like a bit of tacky at Christmas

I'll just stick with the usual colour scheme I think. I can't decide on a new one, not feeling arty enough either.

Sainsburys was packed to the ceiling with Christmas stuff this morning. I was very restrained and only bought 2 boxes of crackers. Don't know how they can do it but boxes of crackers are all half price so I paid £2.99 a box.  They had some gorgeous sparkling, zingy coloured decs as well. |

So HOW many Christmas pressies have you bought her all in Missy - go on be honest ;D Do they not have some pretty baby type Christmas decs - I should imagine they would look lovely on your tree |

It is very genourously sized. I used to live in it, now I wear it when I'm gardening. It has lasted very, very well. |

It is a shame. Wait til Isla wants to be decorating the tree and you have to move 30 baubles from one branch and discreetly re-distribute them ;D |

Actually, you'll already have done that with your own 2 probably.
My Mum used to let the boys do their tree - think she did a bit of sorting out after they'd gone home! ;D
