I don't do as much decorating as I used to because we have such a short time to enjoy it. I still love to pick a theme/color scheme and play with it. I can't wait to start on this year's idea...hope you will check it out in a few weeks.<br /><br />SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03190096917851087676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948862230201694042.post-10367648635887338062009-11-11T21:03:57.529-05:002009-11-11T21:03:57.529-05:00Oy, I haven't even thought about decorating fo...Oy, I haven't even thought about decorating for Christmas yet.

I loved reading about your past and current traditions.<br /><br />We always have a real tree as our main tree, and it has white lights and all the ornaments we both collected/made growing up. It's a real mish mash of stuff, which I love.<br /><br />Our other trees are just small, fake "Charlie Brown" trees. I couldn't afford to buy nice faux ones, so I make do with the skinny rickety ones that come in threesomes from the craft store. ;) I like to do different decorations on each of those, and this year I'm loving the purple I'm seeing. I'd like to change things up a bit. :)<br /><br />Love your photos today!Amanda @ Serenity Nowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483017563206007698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948862230201694042.post-34313605643547681952009-11-11T13:15:50.254-05:002009-11-11T13:15:50.254-05:00Oh Artie!

What are you cooking up now?<br /><br />You and Scott have such a beautiful home. I love everything that you share with us. Your colors are so gorgeous, and the designs just exquisite. I love this tree. It is so beautiful, and I love the way you used the pheasant feathers. I can just see my little grandson Kain, coming by the tree pulling each one out everytime he would pass by. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing my friend. I am working on a tree today for my dining area that I hope to get posted later. It is a small black one, that has red lights. I cannot wait to finish. <br /><br />Country hugs to you and Scott, SherryCountry Wings in Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02665526569698123576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948862230201694042.post-12707094055669888162009-11-11T12:36:03.826-05:002009-11-11T12:36:03.826-05:00Beautiful trees and beautiful photographs!

It only has lights at this point but we are having a decorating dinner this evening to add all the trimmings. Saw the new Disney 'A Christmas Carol' yesterday which SO put me in the mood!
