Mine is decorated with various ornaments. Primarily Disney. I too will try and take a picture and post it here. I don't have a digi-cam so I may be able to use my brothers.

Anyway, I still have some tree pics on-line from last year, so here it is (please excuse the poor picture quality...these were taken with my old digital camera...I have a MUCH nicer one now so this years pics will be much better)

I don't have a picture yet but our tree has a sprinkle of fake snow all over it and pinecones mixed in too. We have multi colored lights and generally a mixture of ornaments (old, new, hallmark, and homeade) We also put small plaid ribbons on it as well.

My tree looks a lot like Holidays tree.

First off, its a real tree. My mom loves lights, so its usually about 5-10 strands, no garland. Lots and lots of ornaments. She saves all the ornaments us kids made in grade school. And a homemade angel on top I made in 3ed grade. We actually have two trees, on in the family room and one on our closed on porch. The tree I just described goes in the family room. And the one on the porch is a pre-lit fake tree. The only ornaments on that one are snowmen. Mom LOVES snowmen.

If I remember when the time comes, I'll post pictures of the two.

Billy isn't the only one with tree envy!
Those are just gorgeous!

Here is mine. I get a live tree every year and decorate it with ornaments I've collected over time and on various trips. My mom even gave me a number of ornaments I made in grade school, so the memories go WAY back.

This is last year's tree. We bought the biggest tree we could fit after having a little 4ft tree for years of apartment living.
It def needs more decorations, maybe some garland. We used to paint those little plaster ornaments from the craft store every year and that makes up a lot of what's on the tree. I'm going to try and get a better picture of it this year without using the flash.

My decorations stash in general is pretty meagre at the moment. Hopefully I can build it up a little more this year.

I think your tree is pretty just the way it is and I wouldn't do much more to change it, maybe some garland or a few other ornaments, but that's it. Sometimes when we put too much on a tree we tend to lose the tree, follow???lol My family has three small trees, one main one that stands about 3.5 or 4 feet tall and our 9yr old daughter has her own tree about 2.5 feet and she decorates it with all sorts of decorations she picks out and our 2yr old daughter has a tree that's about 15 inches and it's just big enough to put one decoration on it with her name on it, this tree also lights up too.

We traditionally buy one or two new ornaments a year for each of the trees that way we don't over do it. The main tree is white and silver and all the ornaments stick with that color theme; they're small trees but the perfect sizes for our home.

Even though my Buckeyes played a horrible game on Saturday...yesterday I took apart & then re-decorated my Buckeye (Ohio State) tree while watching The Grinch & The Santa Claus on tv! I had a ball! I keep this tree up all year round in our basement, but it needed some new lights & some fixing up. Now it is all fresh again & we are ready for the BIG Ohio State/Michigan game on Saturday!! GO BUCKS!!!

Beautiful trees everyone. Here is the tree I use in my office cubicle. It's a small USB powered tree that lights up and changes colors. Nice way to get some Christmas cheer for $5 and very low maintenance. Looks even cooler at night when it's dark.

Faith I really think it depends on the tree too.. I love 2 of mine, and then there is one that never looks as nice as the other two no matter how hard I try... I know its the tree... hmmm I wonder if I should replace it LOL! I just got another new one last year.

Everyones trees are absolutely beautiful! My tree is mainly Disney (Mickey Mouse)....once my home renovations are done and I can use my 2nd tree I plan to decorate it with vintage/old school type ornaments. I also have a load of miniature trees I love to decorate with mini ornaments. One tree I really would like to get for the kitchen is this little one. I think it's pretty adorable.

Very nice Christmas trees everyone. Thanks for posting. I enjoyed looking at them.

My trees change every year. This year I'm going to try and use some of the copper colored decorations, depends on how much I find. I've started to buy what I find now in the stores. White or clear most likely will be my other colors on this tree in the living room. Big tree in the basement will be different.

I had three trees up last year I'll have to find pictures of them to post. Steve-n-Angela, love the upside down tree, mine has bar ornaments on it upside down of course. Captain Morgan is the star. This year I'll have three trees again. One retro silver tinsel (up already) and the main Santa Claus tree and the spiral tree with the trains on it.

All so beautiful!!! I didn't have digital camera last year, but I have one now, so I'll be sure to post this year. We cut down our tree at a local tree farm and I use a variety of antique, kid crafted and well loved ornaments. We use only white lights and have strands or red and gold beads draping the branches. I also have 5 feather trees decorated with antique ornaments. Can't wait to strat decorating!!!
