I get my grandchildren to decorate my tree.
This year, I not only have my decorations, and my late mums, but my ex's aunt died, and somehow, I've ended up with HER decorations as well!! (and a stuffed attic)

But I expect it will mainly be my unbreakable, un - Christmasssy pagan corn dollies on the tree, as usual :-D
I've possibly had either young children and/or cats in my home for a long time......

Researching:
Henry Floyd (g x 4 grandad) Allegedly the heaviest man in England in 1842

She'll probably send it to the tip, because it won't be in fashion next year.

IMHO..... the best trees are decorated with memories......... little things that have been collected over the years, especially decorations made by children.

I can't see this tree EVER being decorated with a home-made item.......

Each to their own.

I can think of other things I could spend $3,500 on :-0

For the record....... I like tinsel! lol
