Here's a thread for us to share our Christmas trees. I know lots of you already have yours up, so lets' see them.Also, for those amazing photographers out there. Some pointers would be great for getting those perfect C-Tree pictures.
I am happy with my tree for the first time ever. (Seriously) Here it is in full and in detail.

Thank you! I have to print up more pictures for some smaller frames I have.My kids are just crushed about the size of the tree. I bought it on clearance last year and didn't pay attention. It goes right to my ceiling and I have nowhere to put our star!

I have the 2 71/2 foot one up but I still have the 2 4 1/2 to put up. I am still without a digital camera though.

I could've sworn I saw a bunch of posts of people who had theirs up already.I always put ours up after T-giving.Plus I'm having a manic episode, so better to do it whilst I have the energy. It might not happen again before xmas.

I was looking at those Pottery Barn ribbon balls and thinking if it would be easy to make. And cheaper. $6 each can add up!

I will try to take pics. If it makes ya feel any better- I broke our star last year. Oops! Guess I have to get a new one! I am hoping to find one that looks like a giant sugr cookie because this year my tree is more whimsical.

yeah, I thought that too. Until I tried to do it. In order to get the ribbon to lie flat, you have to cut it into pieces. It would take a LOT of ribbon. After that, I ordered the damn things. It wasn't worth it to make.

Oh Lisa I think it's beautiful!!!!How did you get such a good picture of it? I have a lot of trouble photographing my tree. I want to get the sparkle effect, but they always look so dark.

Except for being taller than Shaquille O'Neal, my tree is nice and narrow which is why I bought it. So it would fit in this teeny weeny space we live in!!

Thanks!I took it with my new handy dandy camera... no flash. It has an anti-shake feature so it is really great with no flash pics..no tripod so it isn't perfect, but works.I think your pictures are super!
