We made up our own patterns for stripes, initials - and even a skull and cross bones!

Hi, Ive just found this thread, all the trees are fantastic. I love Xmas trees, we have an artificial tree in lounge, and for the first time ever we had a real tree in our porch. Everyone moaned and groaned about the real one (why- whats the point etc) but I had never had a real tree before and wanted to see what I was missing out on.
OH who had moaned and groaned the loudest as he had to go and fetch the tree and erect it, has now decided we will have two real trees next year, so I gather from that its grown on him. (Excuse the pun!)
Most of our family have replaced their trees with fibre optic ones, but personally I like a proper tree.
My favourite on this thread is ebaybabys kids tree, which is just exactly how a kids tree should be, and choccyfaces baby tree which is just so cute!

It's amazing people go to so much trouble.

Wow!! All the tree's look great! Jopsey... your house looks amazing, :j a real Christmas den!!

We spent Christmas & NY in Florida and some of the houses looked incredible lit up at night. All the palm trees have lights wrapped round them that look beautiful at night too!

The villa we had didn't have a Christmas tree so we bought one. I let the kids choose all the decorations and lights etc. to make them feel more 'Christmassy' then we went home and they put it up! We decorated around some of the pictures & mirrors too, put up a few scented pine cones then it almost felt like our own home! Altogether it only cost about £35 including the tree so it was well worth it to have all the pressies around it on Christmas day!

Here's our effort:
