| Anyone put up their christmas decorations yet? Well I have . . at least am almost done I know it is way too early but if I don't do it before saturday, my next schedule open to work on it would be around the 2nd week of December and with all the work involved, enjoying it only for 2 weeks is NOT worth it (will be in San Francisco for the week of christmas). Am having guests starting 11/18 and am hosting this year's thanksgiving. Anyway, thought I might share a section of my favorite room in the house that has some decorations put up. . . . the photos aren't as clear as I wanted it to be but everything hanging from the wreath are all fruits and vegetables from Old World Christmas (anyone familiar with this company?) that I have collected . . . I continue to get more each year as they make new ones. The warehouse is located here in Spokane so I am so lucky to get it at warehouse prices . . . I will try to get a close-up shot for better viewing as these didn't come out as clear . . and will also share more pictures when I am done with my tree. Anyway, I would love to see pictures of everyone else's christmas decorations . . . . |

| Des- That is simply beautiful. How about I just come and stay with you till Christmas is over?! I really only decorate outside with lights, inside is basically the tree and then some minor table things. I won't put anything up till Thanksgiving weekend, though.

| Des.... Its just BEAUTIFUL!!! I love it.. I love Christmas. I go crazy with decoration. I have a tree in each room decorate in different themes. They arent big huge trees. In the living room I have my 7 1/2 ft decorated in white lights and snowmen. In my kitchen I have a 4 ft tree decoreate in white lights and gingerbread men and ribbon, in the Indianapolis Colts Family Room I have a 5 ft tree decorate in the Colts, and Lauryn and Lexi each have there own tree that they decorate in a theme too. I just love your decoration. Great Job. We also do the whole outside light thing too. lol ps... i just love your kitchen |

| Wow, what a beautiful kitchen! We haven't started decorating yet. I use to decorate after my Son's birthday (12/9). Now, it seems 3 weeks is just not worth it. We'll decorate after Thanksgiving. That way we can enjoy it longer.

| Des your decorations thus far are just beautiful. I too like to decorate early since it takes so long and it goes by so fast. I just went to the festivals of trees which is a function in our area that displays designer trees for ideas. Of course you can buy them as well but i like to try and replicate the ones they have. Not to mention I do not have over a grand to spend on the tree - ha, ha! I can not wait to see more.

| Love your kitchen and the garland looks beautiful! I am starting my china cabinet today, it usually takes a couple of days to do. You have to see it to understand. I will take a picture when I am done. I am hugely into decorating for Christmas, trees in every room, and the outside if I do say so myself is very different from most things you see, as I do the tropical theme. I bought some new things this year so I'm pretty excited. I will do the outside starting next week, as I said the inside starts today, usually takes a couple of weeks to do. So, I need to get off this computer! Time flies.........

| Oh Des, it looks FANTASTIC!!! I absolutely love it. You have a gorgeous kitchen. You've inspired me but I'm not allowed to put anything up until after Thanksgiving - hubby's orders.

| It's too early for me. I went to a mall this weekend and they had all their decorations up already. I will do mine the weekend after Thanksgiving.
