Thanks, OM. I appreciate your wanting to help. It will go to a page that shows my history of posting pics on here, and this new video is among them, but I don't know how to get the video to post

Love it Steph. I really love the silver beads!

Thanks, OM. Would you believe they're not silver? They're sort of an opaque milky clear.

They look silver! I have some of the "opaque milky clear" ones on my knick knack shelf!

Wonderful! How many lights???

Wonderful! How many lights???

Thank you, Olga! The tree is 6.5ft and is prelit with somewhere over 600 lights...I don't remember if it's 650...680 maybe? Plus I added one string up the trunk. I actually like even more lights, lol. On our old 7.5ft trees, I would have somewhere between 1000 and 1300 lights.

Very nice, Steph! I really like the icicles. Are yours glass or acrylic? Thanks for letting us see all the ornaments up close. :santa:

I was thinking about the Christmas music you like and was wondering if your kids like the same type you do, since they grew up with it...

Glad you got the video posted. The tree looks nice.:elf3:
I noticed the tree was on a hard wood or tile floor. Did all your ornaments survive? The reason I ask, is one year I lost one of my favorite ornaments, because I put the tree on a hard wood floor. Carpet is much more forgiving when you drop something glass.

Love your Christmas tree. Very Beautiful and simple. Keep up the great work on making the love on your tree shine.

Thank you, Mistletoe. The icicles are glass. Yes, my children like the Christmas music they grew up with but their spouses or significant others don’t. Sorry my response is so late, but I’m just seeing this now
