Christmas Trees

I started this post about 8am this morning! I didn't get it finished in time to post it before I went out to do a day in the wee bookshop - so it is even later than it was going to be

You have the most wonderful Christmas tree ornaments. Ours are very boring in comparison. But these days we just have tiny artificial tree, so there isn't room for much.

Thank you! We only had a small one when our daughter was little, kept on top of a table, then we got a bigger one when she was about 8 or so, and began collecting the glass ones which really catch the light and are basically the background for the eclectic mix of other things that has sort of grown over the years :)

The current small tree was bought for the Christmas when we were due to move into this house, but it was postponed - and all our Christmas stuff was packed away. Some of the decorations on it, like the little figure in the red hat, were actually bought especially, then, and others have, again, just arrived and gravitated to it - like the little red and green fairies who came from a WI craft sale a couple of years ago.

I love your ornaments , the best trees are decked with tenements which have real meaning and are old friends

Thank you. I love my glass ornaments and the golden apples and pears, which have their own histories - but the tree would look bare, to us, without the other eclectic miscellany :)
