New ornaments or decorations for this year?

[wstaple]

What new ornaments or decorations have you acquired since last Christmas that you are exited about using this year? :christmastree:

I actually picked up 2 mercury glass ornaments a while back. One is an elf on a reindeer, and the other is a teddy bear. They were originally priced at $12.99 and $9.99, but they were on sale for $2.00 each! Grand total with tax $4.24!:yahoo:

Bought a set of 5 Lenox porcelain ornaments from QVC - with 24k gold trim - all 5 for only $13 - regularly $44. Plan to give several as gifts. Also picked up my Hallmark ornaments - the 2017 versions of Madame Alexander, Puppy Love, and Fairy Messenger. A couple months ago, I acquired a house for my village, a white ceramic tree with gold trim and lights, and a box of purple glass ornaments for my Madame Alexander tree. I do NOT plan to buy anything else!!! Enough!

I like to make my Christmas ornaments. I love snowflakes and last year made pretty ones and sent them to my kids. I'm trying to upload a picture of it but I'm having problems with that part. I click the upload file but it doesn't bring up the files. If I can get it to work I will post it.

JollyElfDC, I too love Christmas bargains :) I managed to acquire a set of 6 bright red baubles for 10 bucks. I will give them to my daughter so she can draw happy faces on them.

This is mine, I am a Black Lady in the USA, and Virtual Black Santa was the best decoration I ever put up, made the kids very happy. I gotta assume all of you know what Virtual Santa is by now...been out for 15 years. It was actually on UK Channel 4's Kings of Christmas Lights show in 2011. Well, here in the usa there are few decorations for the black culture. And this wonderful man, named JON HYERS who made Virtual santa, also made the Black Santa video which I got a hold of in 2017. Just wonderful.

The sold it at the Mall of America, and the video I showed is from the Mall. Kind of shows how it looks when you use it in a window. Very Fun, love having black Santa.

My first Advent calendar, which is a house with windows that open to show Christmas scenes inside. And a white fur Christmas tree skirt :home:

I would love to see a photo of how this will be done. Seems like a new way to decorate.

[jonnybill]

i will making tree with leds.

[Mistletoe]

I need to look for some fake snow for my tree next year. Hopefully a kind that is not difficult to remove (like a spray would be). I'd like it to look like drifts on some of the branches.

[Mistletoe]

Elf_Erv- how did the burlap tree skirt come out?

[Kolotto]

I got completely new toys and balls fro the tree this year. It was in white and blue colors

What color is your tree? Green?

[JollyElfDC]

I didn't do any decorating this year except the wreath on the door, but I did pick up some clearance things. I purchased a couple of tablecloths, a couple of table runners, and some floral picks to hopefully use in the table settings.

Like every year, I headed back down to the Hallmark store to check out the 50% off and got two others for the tree this year... :christmastree:
