Christmas Decorations at Home, or, other's that you see at Christmas

Denise I remember well your first Christmas there, and your pleasure at getting the decorations up to make it look much more cosy :D...it all looks very pretty now..
 

I'm not putting up any decorations this year..it seems like I've only just put them back in the loft from last year, so I've decided that I'm only going to decorate every other year from now on..

Wow, I went to a parade, and Christmas Tree Lighting last night Holly, and the tree was like this except it was not as gorgeous, with the lighting!! I think I'll put part of the video up I shot, just the best parts;) PSSSSSSSSSSS: OMG ours was not as tall, I see now!! I think ours was 1 story high at best;) This is just so lovely;) thanks Holly, for sharing it;)

Debodun, I have several of the same ornaments shown in the boxes,they are very special. I love the idea of a wall tree can't wait to see it finished. Denise your little tree looks so pretty. I have one in our little sitting room. I probably won't put up a large tree because we will not be here for Christmas but I always put up the manger my Grandpa gave me in the early 50's. The original was cardboard and only about 6 figures. I have added over the years. In the 60's my Grandpa made it out of wood and added the small area for the sheep. It means so much to me.

That must have been about 2 years ago now, and yes, this is just my second Christmas here Holly;) Only one other tenant at the apartments decorating so far, and I was nicely surprised to see it was a feller decorating his Window;)

I'm working on the video of the parade and it will be "very" short as the parade was strictly small-town. I think there were 3 floats, and 2 bunches of horseback riders. I'll get that up as soon as I can;)
 
I took some shots of the office gals decorations for our rec room this a.m. These girls have such great ideas, and many they told me, came off the internet;) I know this is a lot, but I wanted people to see how much the gals do, especially for those that have lost hope, you might say, in their later years, and don't have much of a Christmas:)

Since it is usually just my husband and I for Christmas, I have not really decorated in years. In fact, I gave away all of mine several years ago. I do have a few snowmen, from when I went through a short phase of collecting them. I will usually put out 2 or 3 and keep them out all winter. Here is an arraingement I did with them and my rats two Christmas's ago.

Ok, those are real rats right, lol!! Love it! My older brother and sister had a pair of White Rats when they were kids. We all loved them bunches.
Heckle and Jeckle they name them, LOL!

I gave all my christmas decorations away too in my travels, but been collecting again since just 2015. No big expense, just Walmart and Dollar Store;)

We just have one of those lights that shines on the front of the house and has moving red and green lights.

Yes, projector type, I've seen them at Walmart, and like them. I don't have a place for one here, but it would be fun. I'd like to find something to project stars on the ceiling at night but most are kind of funky.
 
Saw this on Facebook and had to share. This is taken up in Garibaldi Oregon. This is one of the prettiest "decorated" ships I've ever seen!
