Anyone put up their christmas decorations yet? 4 Attachment(s) Well I have . . at least am almost done :p 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 . . . . |
oh thats so beatutiful! we always put ours up at the last minute lol. |
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. |
all i can say is wow !!!! i want your kitchen... never mind the decorations.. your a lucky gal... if only my kitchen was that big, i would invite everyone over... |
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 |
I actually did some present wrapping. we're putting up our outside lights this weekend, because its supposed to be nice where I am in NJ. So I will be doing some this weekend. Chrsitmas was my favorite holiday as a kid and still is (im 27) :D btw -Tiger's Mom what a beautiful job!! |

Oh that looks so beautiful, warm and inviting. I am anxious but have not started yet. I plan on putting up the tree and all the decorations the weekend after Thanksgiving. Thanks for sharing your beautiful decorations. Carol & Buddy:aimeeyork |

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! :rolleyes: 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. :p |
oh it looks great!!! I love it!!! You have got an awesome kitchen!!! |
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. |
Des....it all looks beautiful....can't wait to see more! We never put ours up until the weekend after Thanksgiving and then we keep it out until the week of or after New Years Day. We "cruised" around about two weeks ago in our 68 Camaro and seen TONS of houses that already had their lights up and even their trees up and lit! Wow! That's early........they must have taken down their Halloween stuff and then put up their Christmas stuff right then!!! |

Jodie......just noticed your website! That is excellent! I just loved the nightie that you posted about earlier......so cute!!!! |
We put our new Mickey Mouse wreaths on the front doors so far but after this weekend we will be all Christmas ready! BY the way I love the kitchen decorating idea And I love your kitchen!!! |
That's lovely, I can see why it is your favorite room. I left my christmas tree up all year, it's in a corner downstairs. Last weekend my grand daughter was over and she loves to help decorate, so we strung lights all around the main room downstairs. Your pictures have given me some other ideas also. thank for sharing. |
Your kitchen is BEAUTIFUL Des! I'm not sure how much decorating we'll do at our house this year. I can't wait to see the rest of the pictures of your house. :D |

Wow Des your kitchen is gorgeous! My Husband said he is going to get into our basement and start putting our Christmas Decorations up. I love putting our tree up. I have alot of handmade ornaments my Daughter and Son have made and ornaments with our yorkies pictures on them. |
That looks so good.. I was thinking about doing something similar except I am trying not to put up to much since I won't be for most of December. I love Old World Christmas ornaments. Do you have the yorkie one? |
I love Christmas!! You're kitchen looks beautiful! I would start decorating Nov 1 if my hubby would let me, but he's the kind that doesn't like his Christmas spirit to start until the day after Thanksgiving. But I like being decorated for the holidays if people come over for Thanksgiving. Anyway, we just closed on our new house in Canton, OH today and the movers will be here tomorrow! I can't wait! My Christmas decorations will go straight from the truck to being put up on the house. It'll be nice to have them as a filler for my lack of general decorations for a couple of months too;) |

OMG you should come visit me as the warehouse sells all their OWC really inexpensive compared to the store . . .I have a cousin from MD that asks me to buy every year a couple of boxes at least because she knows what they're worth if she went to a store like Saks Fifth :D |
