Wow! You go all out! It is like a Christmas wonderland at your house. Can I ask how long it took you to do all that? I only have a tree in my living room, a tree in my daughter's room and a few stockings on the mantle - and I was worn out! LOL.

I don't think I've ever seen a purple tree

It's lovely. I love Illinoismom's decorating probably because we just do the tree and some stockings IF we do anything.

Illinoismom, the Big snowman is Super cute! I like the life size santa, but it's the real looking face that would make me get startled in the middle of the night( i'm very forgetfull ) LOL Do you also decorate outside as much as you do indoors? I think it's wonderfull!! so homey and cheerfull! We have our tree and stockings up, a sign outside that says Santa Stop Here, but don't have anything else put up yet this year. I love being able to see peoples lights up and also their trees in the windows at night as you drive by... still makes me smile!

I go over board in every room, every room has a tree and I do mean every one, this is 28 years of collecting Christmas stuff, This year I didn't put everything out and my husband wanted to know what.

I do decorate the outside I have several blow ups and animated items but not near the depth of the inside

You house is Fabulous, Illinoismom! :yup:

I haven't posted any of mine yet - because I am not even half done with it.

If I don't get a move on Santa will be stuffing Invisible Stocking this year!
