From the Xmas tree in garden got some fresh branches and into a big glass vase with water. Thin red ribbons and mini baubles 1 inch in red, gold. green. A red bell and few other small sized baubles in red. Icycles lights in window. Red pillar candles with orange essential ols.

It is tough as we get older. One year we had 12 trees up in our home besides the outside decorations. But things have slowed down as the big 70 is quickly approaching. Still decorated both inside and out, but to a much lesser degree than before...

My office is decorated year round and each room begins at a different time. For instance, the Harry Potter library will get started next month. For the outside, it will begin the Friday after Thanksgiving...
