So Christmas is a big deal in our house, we love decorating the living room and the tree, every year we try to find a new ornament for the tree, this year we settled on the house from disneys 'UP' a family favourite of ours, here it is on the left, to the right is a star wars ornament my wife added as a surprise for me


they are only small but packed with detail, very impressed with both of them, anyone else decorate with new items?

    Hi @Grinchy

    Thanks for your post. It made my day to see. You included two of my favourite things - Disney and Christmas! The question is, have you or anyone else put the Christmas tree up yet?  :D

    I thought people buying pumpkins last weekend were a little premature, I can't imagine anyone has a tree up yet! :D

    The room is looking great @Grinchy :) I love the Up decoration too- that film makes me tear up every time.

    Thanks @Tori_Scope and @L_Volunteer those first few moments of UP when we see them both grow old together without any dialogue, says so much,without having to say anything, if you get what i mean, i just love it

    Yes, you're exactly right @Grinchy :) I think that's what makes it even more emotional.

    The Disney set sounds good @lillybelle! Worth holding onto if you think grandchildren might be on the cards. I'm not sure on a suggestion for nativity figurines. Have you looked at the company who made the ones you currently have?

    @Tori_Scope, yes its a great movie, if your able watch the pixar short 'feast' it again has little dialogue but is very heartwarming
    i hope you find a nativity set @lillybelle, we bought a new set from ebay last year, only small but does the job, your disney themed ornaments sound great, would love to see them
