Geez, do I know about tree fluffing! It takes absolutely forever.

I dislike pre-lit trees preferring to do my lights. I also prefer colored lights. And they are another thing that takes forever!

I never cared for the flocked look but your tree is really pretty, even without decorations!

I never got theme stuff for trees, just things I liked and they all go on somewhere.

But I love your owls and the squirrel. He is mighty cute! You did a marvelous job of filling the tree, it's just beautiful! And I think it looks best with the white lights...

I can't put anything delicate on the masonry heater as it gets too hot. So all it has are cast iron things. I put a mantle on it, but can't hang stockings. Sigh... I envy you the swag.

Nice job! Glad I got to see your tree...
