Our big Leylandii hedge is now missing one of it's tallest branches. Perfect for the sitting room.
ReplyDeleteHaha Cro ...... I love your resourcefulness !! XXXX
DeleteOh, and ...... don't think that you are going to take my job as wine monitor in Rachel's heaven ...... that job's mine, all mine !! XXXX
DeleteI've just come back to see the snow..... Brrrrr.
DeleteJust adore the pics. Happy tree hunting. I might just even haul out my box of antique ornaments this year for my feather tree. Like the Polar Express, I can no longer hear the bells.
ReplyDeleteYes Donna ..... haul them out ...... I bet they will look beautiful.
DeleteLove The Polar Express .... I watch it with our grandson and we have to fast forward one scary bit and I always cry at the bell bit at the end !! XXXX
I adore that angel ornament! What a find! Merry Merry from WAY over here <3

DeleteI sent the husband out for a real tree this weekend he came back with an artificial one - what can you do!
ReplyDeleteOh Elaine ..... never mind ..... some artificial ones can be really nice ..... I just can't bring myself to go down the artificial route just yet !! XXXX
DeleteNo Much decoration on this site this year...a quiet and calm Christmas.....love from me Ria x❤️
ReplyDeleteOh Ria ..... did I miss something ? Hope everything is OK. Much love. XXXX
DeleteThe first image is gorgeous. I am minimal with my Christmas decor too. Natural elements from the seashore with bare white trees in our sea cottage.

ReplyDeleteno tears please . . .
late at night here . . . guess I open the bins and boxes and
begin . . .
Thanks Lynne ...... we got it yesterday without too much fuss !! I do get my husband to pull thousands out and stand holding them while I make my mind up ..... I'm just as fussy with tins of baked beans !!!! XXXX
DeleteI'm sure your home will be decorated beautifully, as always I love your pictures, happy tree hunting, I have to admit I succumbed to an artificial tree awhile ago ( shame on me ) but these days I can't be doing with the mess from falling pine needles. Merry Christmas & enjoy the festive season with your family & friends. xx
ReplyDeleteHi Barbara ........ please don't be ashamed. The artificial ones are so good now ..... I just can't give up my real tree yet, and, the needles don't drop much now ..... our tree goes out at the end of Christmas, nearly as good as it comes in !!!!
DeleteHappy Christmas to you and yours. XXXX
Barbara, I hope that you've come back to read this. I can't seem to put you on my sidebar no matter how hard I try and, I can't comment on your blog either ..... don't know what I'm doing wrong !! XXXX
DeleteHappy holidays, Jackie! And I too buy a new ornament every year. Love yours!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Carol ........ over the years, I have collected SO many Christmas ornaments but I like to add just one new one each year ..... I couldn't resist that little fairy. XXXX
DeleteBeautiful pictures, Jackie! And the snowflakes are dancing over your blog-site again - how you do that is a mystery to me.
ReplyDeleteWe have the same tradition: buying one new item for the tree. The fairy looks lovely!
Hi Britta ....... I love the falling snow on my blog and am always reluctant to take it off in the Spring !!!!!
DeleteI always look out for a new Christmas decoration ..... I think it's a good tradition, don't you ? XXXX
Lovely pictures Jackie. I love your little decoration and the velvet coat's gorgeous. Happy tree hunting.xx
