Oh Christmas tree, oh christmas tree, where art thou christmas tree???

Well, Christmas has taken hold in this home, and it is here to stay, well at least for a while!!





A little bit here, and a little bit there, and with the help of all the Christmas movies on tv and the department store music and decs, I think we are getting in the spirit...






My "Hat" theme for Christmas day is also coming together, here is just a peek! Sue if you are reading this , then 'STOP', right now! We cant have you copying now can we??
My girls have been busy and creative...
I havent started mine yet, but this is what I have to work with! This one is hubby's hat, I know he wont make one!
My son is making one at school, so I wont see his till Chrissy!



The only thing that is left, is to find the perfect xmas tree. I have had real ones, I have had plastic ones, they have all ended up in the tip! Any suggestions for this year?? It needs to be simple, gorgeous, and tall...now there's a challenge! MMMM, 'man' comes to mind....only jokin????






I can see half my verandah now , Toby is loving it, and that's all Im going to say, yay!






If only the sun would shine, for just a couple of days, enough to decorate outside, oh and clean up all my junk!

This is what I have been busy working on lately, my friend Jenni and I bought this siteshed when we started our business together a couple of years ago. We have decided to sell it now, and you can check it out in my ebay store. Im a bit reluctant to part with it now, it looks too good!






I dont have the aussie christmas bush growing here, but I have the New Zealand christmas bush, its gorgeous, and not as messy! It is in the ground, otherwise I might have used 'it' to decorate this year.

  3. How about an elegant, white tree? With silver and aqua decorations.

  4. Thanks Peta, I actually looked at a white tree today, but I had my daughter with me, and she said' Who in their right mind would have a white tree?' I grew up having a white xmas tree ,until about 3 years ago, so approx 40 years!!! That's all I knew!
