Good Morning Lacquered Lifers! Does anyone else feel that over the years the Christmas decorating has started earlier and earlier? Growing up, we never got into the full swing of Christmas until after December 17th, because that is my brother’s birthday, and we tried our best not to let Christmas overshadow it. Last year, I tried to continue that tradition with my own Christmas decorating … try finding a tree in Charleston on the second weekend of December. So this year, I am going to pick out my tree this week, and just not pick it up until the second week of December. Try as I may, I cannot jump so easily and quickly from Thanksgiving into Christmas. However, I will try to do a little bit of organizing ahead of time. Going thru my Pinterest boards, it seems that I’m quite taken with small, simple accent trees. Via
How pretty is this Tabletop Spruce? I think that something like this would look beautiful in the study or on the dining room table. Church Street is not a big house, so I can’t go too crazy with lots of mini trees but I think I’m definitely going to need at least one … and maybe purchasing this will persuade me to start in on the Christmas decorating a little earlier this year.
