Where would one get the lovely greenery and lights to drape over the mantelpiece ? Is there a name for them ? Garland ?

Yes they are called Garlands, you can get them in most stores Dunnes, Woodies, Argos etc. Mine didn't come with lights so I just bought a little set of battery operated LEDs and entwined them in it or an ordinary set of fairy lights would work also. Now would be a good time to buy as most stores selling off their Christmas decorations at half price or more.

A stunning bunch of trees this year love them all

Putting tree up on Sunday but just wondering is it only pictures of trees that can be posted here or can we put up pics of our other decorations?

AlanS181824

I guess you should get Posy to give the proper go ahead but what me and a few people did last year was post the pic of the tree and then under that have some other decorations.

I guess you'll need Posy to though for sure though! :pac:

Yes; what Alan said- decorations permissible (in moderation) when we've seen your tree!

ChewChew

I couldn't wait till Sunday

xXxkorixXx

No lights yet we have to wait until next week or a little longer for a new transformer. So here it is - our Christmas tree - with no lights lol!!

Dozen Wicked Words

Disappointing you can't see all the lights, the "expert" decoration by the kids is obvious though.

Here's mine and my beautiful Girlfriend's very modest tree, it looks lovey all lit up!

Tree is mammy Goodman's effort. I did the outside

Gave my nana a hand putting up her tree today, sorry it's a little small! Gonna do our one tomorrow!

CrowdedHouse

Quite early for a tree to be up in my home place

Whispered

We usually get A big real tree, but this year we decided to try one of the fake ones from Argos. It's much smaller than I'm used to but I think it looks quite well considering the price!

Lia_lia

It's our first Christmas living together so we are a bit low on decorations...but looking alright so far! Lots of owls

Toto Wolfcastle

Pictures and small amount of chat allowed

Putting the tree up really is the best.









It doesn't look like it in the photos, but the room is really cosy and Christmassy. It's just not possible to capture it all in a photo! Our mantelpiece lights aren't working at the moment so it will have to do as it is for the moment.

gidget

Here's our one that went up yesterday! It really has seen it's day now that it's the 17th year putting this one up. Next year hopefully i'll get my wish & put a real one up

we'llallhavetea

My housemate and I go for the tacky/colourful/gaudy look in our apartment cos at home with the folks they're all pretty and classy

livEwirE

Here's my one, although to be fair my OH decorated it all

philthrill69

My wife and daughter decorated the tree while I was out freezing my giblets off doing the outdoor lights.

xXxkorixXx

As promised, we finally have a (new) fully working Christmas tree :-)

AlanS181824

Went up yesterday, was the same time last year but we're never early anyway!



Forgot to fan out some of the branches which is why it's got a bit of a strange shape! :pac:



Promise I'm not thanks whoring but eh.... Ali enjoys a bit of tinsel!



Merry Christmas Boardsies!

It's never too late for a bit of Christmas goodness. I'm only showing the corner of our 'lit' tree due to me misjudging the lights(lots on the bottom, much less on the top). The cat's called Felix...



...and here it is unlit(before we switched the chair and tree around),




MERRY CHRISTMAS! ...what!??

RentDayBlues

I know it's 7 months late but 4 months early for this year! We have 2 trees, a 6 foot one from our apartment we decorate in blue and silver, which looks sad in our bay window. So we bought a new one but it's too big! So in a few years we'll buy a nice wider 6 foot

Second one is 7 foot, we decorate in red and green, can't wait to get them up! Will be up for the toy show!

You can sort of see the blue one in the glass here

SMJSF

So, these are mine!!
The first image is of the storage radiator lit & decorated.
The second is of the display with the lights off,
And the third is of the TREE and the display .











Enjoy putting up yours
I am looking forward to seeing everybody else's...

Hey guys just a reminder of the OP.

[*]Minimum relevant discussion is okay, but "nice tree" type posts will just be deleted.

If you like a tree just thank the post rather than posting. I had to delete some nice tree posts. It makes it easier for us to snoop on all your trees if there's no chat interrupting the pics.

*I'll take a picture of the fully decorated version tomorrow*

The finished product (see the wonky bottom branches where the toddler has already attacked :pac: ) plus the glass bowls of led lights and baubles I put in the kitchen.

Radharc na Sleibhte

I'm not allowed put the tree up until next week so I put this up while she was at work. She keeps plugging it out and I keep switching it on again!
