Echosoftom 3 Report post Posted November 26, 2010 No not yet. I plan to do it this weekend. Shouldn't take too long. I just pull out my little tiny tree with the Christmas lights already on it, plug it in, and I'm good to go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WildflowerNJ 136 Report post Posted November 26, 2010 No, not yet....I did bake my gingerbread house already...but this year I made it into a gingerbread stable. Fred made a "fence" and I put some of my tiny elephant figurines around it, I love it I will slowly get things out...we decorate the outside of the house this coming week...trying something different. Our tree goes up around the 22nd of next month. This is a small simple little farm house....I keep the decorations that way, too... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DCAHNM 0 Report post Posted November 26, 2010 Not yet. We usually put up the tree around December 1st. I go crazy with the tree. And I usually put up my Florida Gator wreath.. That's about it. Looks like this year I'm gonna have to decorate the top two-thirds of the tree with Baby Pettyhead about, lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patty Petty 9 Report post Posted November 26, 2010 The lights are on the house already (but not on). The bushes will get their lights on probably in the next week. Not sure what all we're doing this year inside (because of the puppies). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SingsInFrench 262 Report post Posted November 26, 2010 Not yet, I don't decorate a lot. I'll put up my 3 little alpine trees in a grouping, and decorate them with natural decorations. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WildflowerNJ 136 Report post Posted November 26, 2010 Did finish my gingerbread barn this year. I have been making these tiny simple gingerbread houses since I got married. This year it is a barn for the eles. Now, please know, they are in a sanctuary and behind this barn are 100's of acres for them to roam. I have to bake alot of gingerbread elephants for my tree this year. A very dear friend, sent me the most beautiful elephant cookie cutter! :003: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Softanimal 7 Report post Posted November 26, 2010 No. The only things I'll decorate with are some pixies and a candle light in a lump of clay, surrounded by spruces. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beamish 0 Report post Posted November 27, 2010 Nope. The most I do is hang up a stocking in our classroom (it's required of all the staff). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LizzieB 0 Report post Posted November 27, 2010 Not yet, probably next weekend. I will put up a tree, and a wreath and lights around the front door. Our roofline is 40 foot, so we don't put lights up there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emmie 2 Report post Posted November 28, 2010 We have a tree up now in the living room - even a few wrapped gifts under it. Apart from that nothing else. We're behind with it all this year due to more renovations. Hopefully we can get some lights and stuff outside next weekend - well maybe! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KansasPettyFan 1 Report post Posted November 28, 2010 It is all done and, yes, I go all out. The layout of this house begs for it. It's perfect! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
