Elm Street - ish ♥
I didn't have a tree up in my apartment this year.

Dining room - wine tree
- two black topiary trees in a Mardi Gras theme
Family room - family tree with all family ornaments
- Snowman theme tree
Study - Disney Tree, white tree with all Mickey ornaments
Kitchen - chicken tree (all chicken ornaments)
- small ceramic mouse tree on table too
Son's bedroom - Casino tree (ornaments with dice and cards on them)
My bedroom - ornaments of copper, gold and ivory
Upstairs hallway - decorated with hydrangeas and ribbons


The new one I just bought is a 6 1/2 ft champagne colored tree that will be decorated with apple green and chocolate brown ornaments next year.

It really is an addiction and probably a result of my ex telling me that we could only have one tree when I wanted more than one.


I gotta ask, how long does it take you to set up, and pack back up?

Our Disney tree makes me tear up each night as I tuck my daughter in (it sits next to her bed) since the topper is a Cinderella that she got from those involved with her Make a Wish trip smile

Several of them (the 4 1/2 and 5 ft ones) stay decorated and I just toss a bag over them and store them in the basement. The larger ones over 6 ft to 7 1/2 ft get taken down and dismantled each year. I have it down to a science now. It takes a few hours for each of the bigger trees - I can usually get it all done in about a day. That includes hanging the various garlands and mantle display. Once you have the design it doesn't take long to implement it.

Packing it all up will take a day as well.
