let's see your tree
I love Christmas trees! Here's ours... its fake and I think it even came from Kmart, lol. It was my Mothers, I cant bring myself to get rid of it since she's gone now. Most of the ornaments were her's too. I can remember those little brown bears w/red santa hats from when I was a little girl. I think next year I will give it to the salvation. I really want to get a real tree.

you got three!!! I so wish I had the space lol! it was hard enough making room for my little 4 foot tree.
I really wanna see this marilyn monroe tree.
Thanks!
Tree #2 in the living room- 4' tree that I like to call "holiday hot mess" because its like a bunch of colors thrown together. This is also where my cat likes to hang (she's under the tree!)
Tree #3 Marilyn Monroe Tree in bedroom...I have been collecting ornaments for this tree for a few years and it's my fav. I have a cat named Norma Jean and I am just a LITTLE obsessed with Marilyn Monroe lol
Here's a close-up of the ornaments, you can see I have lots of pics of Marilyn!

Oh, I'm jealous! Your trees are all so pretty. We have a couple of young, naughty cats in the house and can't give them that kind of temptation until they grow up and chill out a little. Right now all we have is a wreath on the front door since they can't get to that.
At least we live pretty close to my parents and I was able to help them decorate their house this weekend.

yeah i bought 3 black boas and wrapped them around the tree, it looks really neat! A couple of years ago black and white ornaments were the hype so I bought them all up and got the idea. I don't really see much of it anymore though.
My dh thinks the more trees the better, we put them up 2 weeks before thanksgiving because he was DYING to get it all out and up! I call him my little christmas elf. I am glad that he gets so excited about it, and I am always up for decorating!

Foto I love your MM tree....this just inspired me for next year!
Question....what color is your bedroom? I know random...but we are painting a few rooms in our house and I was just wondering because I want to do a greenish/blueish tone in our room...our sheets are dark silver....So far I picked "Soothing Celedron" for our bedroom and "Hydrangea Blossom" for our bathroom.....guest bathroom is now "Anitque Ruby"....all BEHR paint colors.
Our bedroom is a medium gray color, this is our duvet cover, I picked the gray out of it for the walls and the brown for the master bath:

The brown in the bathroom with everything else white, it looks really clean! I love picking out paint colors, I paint at least one room every 2 months. Its cheap and it can make such a difference!
I really like the soothing celadron color that is really pretty, it will go with gray really well. I saw the hydrangea blossom and I like the color as long as it is in a bathroom away from the master. The two colors are very similar they might clash since they are all in the same color scheme. It is a really clean color though for a bathroom. Good choices!

We haven't put ours up yet, but here's a pic from last year:
It will basically be the same this year. It's just a cheapy artificial that we inherited. All of our ornaments are jewel-tone colors. I also have a 3' tree that is gingerbread themed that I put up in the kitchen, but I don't have any pics of it. I'll have to post some when I get it up- it has a gum drop garland and all the ornaments are gingerbread men or look like candy. I love gingerbread men and it's super cute!
Heres; ours, traditional with a bit of shabby...just set it up yesterday!
We got ours on Saturday. He's fat and full and we named him "Fir"dinand!
Here's just our (teeny) tree:
And here's our tree and our mantel:
I took pics last night and posted them to FB, but here it is for you girls:
