I don't like them. I don't like the black & white decorating either. <br /><br />I, too, have a standard green tree. Though in the wild, Colorado Blues are my favourite! (I haven't seen fake ones that compare.)<br /><br />I've blogged a bunch of trees & tree alternatives this week. I think I like tree alternatives and will go that route when our current tree retires.CannedAmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08312333323225187964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-15586928825454536422009-12-07T21:50:34.032-05:002009-12-07T21:50:34.032-05:00real tree if we put one upreal tree if we put one upEvelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18173048649291397174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-91953633458171339552009-12-07T20:15:18.332-05:002009-12-07T20:15:18.332-05:00Thanks sooooo much for stopping by my place.

You're really good to have all your gifts wrapped, I haven't even done one yet and I don't even have all my decorations done. Not quite as much fun to do when you're alone to do it. I helped my mom do hers though and that was lovely!Karinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07462017384530247677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-25146157723459218022009-12-07T05:47:17.365-05:002009-12-07T05:47:17.365-05:00traditional green tree every time!

I've been collecting crystal ornaments & I have this vision of a black tree, simple clear lights & the crystals (& maybe a few hot pink baubles to liven it up).<br /><br />My 9 y.o. has his own little tree, it's white. He has decorated it solely in red, white & silver ornaments. It looks great & he loves it.Toriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01091419616292144494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-79275212880698640832009-12-07T03:48:05.569-05:002009-12-07T03:48:05.569-05:00very traditional girl me - no fiberoptics in sight...very traditional girl me - no fiberoptics in sight ! <br /><br />as regards the two blogs...
