Who’s decorating for the holidays?
-
I used to decorate the house, both the exterior with lights and the interior with Christmas tchotchkes and a tree. The outdoor lights went by the wayside decades ago and I’ve gone back and forth over the last few years, sometimes decorating inside and sometimes not.
This year I thought I would start on December 1st and put out at least one bit of decoration each day. So I got the tacky glittery tabletop Christmas tree out and put it in the living room. Mom’s little artificial door swag is on the front door, and what used to be a front door wreath has gotten a new life as an oversized candle ring on the coffee table. Pics later.
How is your Christmas decorating spirit this year?

Who’s decorating for the holidays?
We are!! I can share pics later as well. (Although it looks mostly the same as last year)
Mr SK put our two trees up before thanksgiving. And then I got them decorated over a period of a few days (since I’m less mobile than normal I spread it out a bit more).
We have a wreath on the front door and I’m hoping to add wreaths on the garage door carriage lights.
But no big yard lights. That’s the one thing I haven’t figured out yet. The lights of it, I mean. I love outdoor lights though so I would love to have some …

Full on decorating mood here. I find it a great way to brighten up the shorter and shorter days. We should have more big festivals.
Both trees are up and now decorated (living room and dining room). I decided not to put up the silver tree in the kitchen this year. After 5 or 6 years in the kitchen for the season it has picked up a greased dusty look. So I put a 3' holiday topiary on the kitchen work table. The village is displayed in the book shelf again as I really enojoyed it last year. The santa collection sit atop one of the antique sewing machines. A swag over my desk. And a few bits and bobs here and there. Pics to come.
