I decorate with victorian ornaments and ribbons...

Your tree sounds like it's really pretty, Gina. You're going to have to post pictures for us.

We would always get a real tree (you know where you go out in the neighbor's pasture and chop one down!) but after we moved into our new house I really didn't like the mess so we bought an artificial tree. Now I can put it up earlier because I don't have to worry about it drying out. We bought a really nice tree that turns! It's really neat but I put so many ornaments on it that it's too heavy to turn.
