"This weekend we will erect the xmas tree, as we are in the forest and are quite crafty we make a lot of decorations with natural wood slices and foliage etc Do you have tree themes or do you just throw the decorations on anyhow?" They are mostly personalised.. or handmade. I made a nice nativity scene using spices another year.. and like adding one more each year.. little baby Jesus made of hazelnut in a walnut crib. Things like that.. This year I am attempting to make nativity scene of pasta shapes sprayed with gold.. Italian style apparently. 
What do you make? | |||

"This weekend we will erect the xmas tree, as we are in the forest and are quite crafty we make a lot of decorations with natural wood slices and foliage etc Do you have tree themes or do you just throw the decorations on anyhow?" Sounds lovely. Nooo I spend ages doing it. I have panic attacks when the kids try and help with the main tree  . I got them a tree each for their rooms to decorate so it’s much better now | |||

If i didn't have grandkids I probably wouldn't bother with a tree, I'd just have lights. | |||

"No colour theme but we use decorations given as presents. We always try and buy one nice new one if we are going somewhere Christmassey as well. It's a collection of memories and things dear to us I guess." That is very special and thoughtful | |||

"My tree is the most gaudy creation ever! All colours, mismatched baubles stuff on there the kids made when they were small and I love it. I just cannot get my head around why people want a colour theme for their tree. My friend wants a blue themed one this year
"I used to be like that until I was 35 and started going to grottos at xmas and that changed my taste | |||

"Oh that's so lovely! I'd love to make my own and be more crafty at Christmas. It's a nice touch to add! I'll be going rustic and white this year with warm white lights. I might change my mind when I grab the box of decorations but I'll see. I try to change my Christmas theme a little each year. I think last Christmas it was green and red and very traditional. I'm tempted to get a little tree for my daughters room and do her a bright rainbow tree! "I love warm white lights as well, how do decide your theme, Its inevitably a hot wheels themed tree for his room  | |||

Its inevitably a hot wheels themed tree for his room "It's hard work deciding when you've got so much to choose from
I went to a lovely garden centre on Friday and it was absolutely mesmerising. I think I got some inspiration from that. In the January sales earlier this year I bought loads of white decorations that were reduced down to 50p from about £5.00 each so they need to be put to use this year 
I can't say I've seen a hot wheel tree before but it does sound like it would bring happiness to a small child! I bloody love Christmas! I think we need a Christmas tree thread | |||

"I have every Christmas decoration my children have ever made (my children are now 21 to 29yrs old!) My eldest daughter went to koln and had one made as a gift for her younger sisters 18th... and a selection of other 'special' ones that mean something to us. Aww... feeling all warm and fuzzy now! I'm putting my trimmings up on Sunday now! Nice post OP. " Thats lovely. I've kept mine in his memory box for when he is older | |||
