Christmas decorations
 
I put up some decorations the other day. I have a lovely fibre optic tree which has white branches and flashing blue points on the needles. I also have some multiccoloured fairy lights and a plasma lamp. Has anyone else put up Christmas decorations?
 
 
-Not yet. I go away for Christmas so I don't usually put up a tree. I kpet one fully decorated for a bit in my store room and could just take it out and plug it in but some helpful person undecortared it one day and put it away. I woul dlike a fibre optic tree but since I am never home for it wind up thinking there must be something a little less seasonal in fibre optics. At home we used to have candles and everything on the tree and I find most trees boring by comparison. I think this year I will take some of my decorations with me. I inherited some nice little Nisse. (a bit like elves) Who hold candles and it seems a shame they just sit ina box. I thought of even doing the table centrepiece as my gift to my sister in law this year but she has pretty different ideas about Christmas so I don't know. -ive put up our decorations, of course because of ryan (3) and adam (2) we have a lovely half tree on the wall!! but its got loads of twinkly stuff and lights ryan espcially likes the tinsel, it makes a good line -I found out recently, much to my surprise, that other than stockings and things for the (not yet purchased) tree, I have only one decoration from last year and a wreath for the door I made this year. I would like to get more, but it's probably pointless because I'm too inert to put them up. -I would've done, but I'm moving house right now, so I'll spend the time until christmas just organising the new place... no chance of much in the way of decorations this year, I think. -What ever happened to the pipe cleaner nisse you made? I made some dough ornaments with the kids. Rather than try to keep them, I think we will re-do them annually, only keeping one per child per year and shellac just those so they'll last. They aren't exactly the most stunning ornaments, but I think we'll enjoy looking back at them in a few years' time.
