I'm sure that by now, quite a few of you will have your Christmas decorations up and would like a place to show off your handy work :) 

With that in mind, we thought we'd create this thread for that exact reason, so please feel free to share pictures of the decorations you have going on this Christmas!

I'll start us off, here's our Christmas tree! This is the first year I've had an artificial one and so far I can not tell any difference really, which is super.

We opted to go for a rainbow themed one, which has different coloured branches in each section.

    Looks lovely @Ross_Scope :) Love all the different colours on the tree! 

    We bought a mini tree this year because we don't have much room in our flat - I do think it's quite cute! Our tree is looking quite bare too because the cats have taken all the decorations off and now they're scattered around the flat somewhere. We also need to get an ornament for the top of our tree...any suggestions on what we should have?!

    Gracie looks in shock, and Jacob... well you guess...

    An angel @Libby_Scope, other suggestions would be a star or a fairy, but I favour an angel and it’s good for the house too. ?


    Just add water they said... ?

    I’ve never been good at decorating trees, this is my best effort.

    I will bear your suggestions in mind, @leeCal :) hopefully I'll remember to get one soon!

    Haha, what a low maintenance tree that is! Quite envious as you won't have any pin needles dropping all over the place.

    Looks great @MarkM88! :)  My favourite part is the Santa clause bauble!

    @Libby_Scope thanks. I bought new baubles this year, I’m in the festive mood now, even got the alexa playing Christmas songs.

    @MarkM88, that's what I like to hear! What are your current top Christmas tunes?

    @Libby_Scope I liked the famous Mariah Carey song, All I want for Christmas is you, and also Do they know it’s Christmas? By Band Aid.

    They're both classics and I also enjoy those two. You can definitely sing along to them too!

    This is mine. I bought some extra things this year because I wanted to have a little Christmas display for my grandson.

    Do you play 'elf on the shelf' with your grandson?

    @Libby_Scope no, he doesn't live with me and i don't see him everyday. He's also only 21 months old and although he's very forward for his age, still a little too young for elf on the shelf. Next year!

    Aw, definitely something that he can enjoy next year! I'm sure he just likes playing with the toy currently though :)
