Wow! Pretty!

Thank you!
Sally, are you my friend that was looking for kitchen/food-related ornaments?

I put lights on the beam in the cabin.
RE: 79 DAYS... - Duchess - 11-29-2023
Yay! I love the ambience of Christmas lights. Are you going to have a tree?
RE: 79 DAYS... - MirahM - 11-29-2023
Chop one down myself
RE: 79 DAYS... - Duchess - 11-29-2023
That's my girl. Badass.
RE: 79 DAYS... - sally - 11-29-2023
I’ve always had a real tree, but last year I bought a flocked, snow dusted artificial tree. I put it up last night and thought it might have gotten messed up from being taken apart and sitting in a box for a year, but it went up in minutes and looks perfect. I’ll probably never buy a real tree again.

Good job, Sal! You usually procrastinate. I've never known you to have it up so early. Now go outside and wrap the lights around that big tree like you did a few years ago, it looked great!
RE: 79 DAYS... - sally - 12-01-2023
I’m not doing that shit ever again, what a pain in the ass. I was up in the tree wrapping lights around it until 3 in the morning and my husband came out and called me a crackhead. Plus we’re going to my brother in laws for two weeks for Christmas and New Years so I don’t need to decorate too much.

I know! It was so fun, that's why I want to do it again!
The tree was beautiful and your effort was worthwhile.
RE: 79 DAYS... - sally - 12-01-2023
Why don’t you go light up a fucking tree then? A real tree. I did the bottom part and branches that I could reach and then got a hair up my ass and thought it would look amazing if I bought more lights and took them all the way to the top, I’m lucky I didn’t kill myself.
RE: 79 DAYS... - Duchess - 12-02-2023
Why you gotta be so fuckin' miserable all the time, woman. Damn.
RE: 79 DAYS... - MirahM - 12-02-2023
WEll
I was going to go get my tree today.
I was so excited that I wouldn't be traipsing in the snow to get it
dang
Plus since I don't have a stand I have to use a bucket filled with rocks and I didn't get the rocks yet
I need a sled
RE: 79 DAYS... - Duchess - 12-03-2023
I think it would be so fun to go out and chop down the Christmas tree in the snow!
RE: 79 DAYS... - Duchess - 12-11-2023
Love Child, did you get your tree?
RE: 79 DAYS... - MirahM - 12-11-2023
Yes!!!!!!!! Omg I love it so much. More details later.
RE: 79 DAYS... - MirahM - 12-11-2023
Duchess,
I don't know how to put Christmas lights on a tree. I feel so dumb.
I've always started at the outlet, apparently that isn't the right way to do it. Also since I have my tree on the porch-the outlet is in the middle of the wall-and that means I am starting the strand in the middle of the tree. I have 4 strands of lights to go on to this 9 foot tree.
Going to youtube to figure out the best way to do lights.
RE: 79 DAYS... - MirahM - 12-11-2023
Also, i need a step stool. Also I don't know if I can put the tree in the house because I don't know what the cat will do to it. Strangely so he has left the decorations on the window alone for the most part. The tree would look gorgeous inside. For now it is on the porch.

Hey now. Did someone tell you that starting at the outlet is wrong? I think putting the lights on one's own tree is a personal thing and there is no right or wrong way, you go with what works for YOU.

I don't think you should take it for granted that the cat will fuck with your tree. I say it like that because I've always had cat/cats and only one time did any of them ever mess around with my tree and Chewie brought it down. It scared him so badly he never did anything like that again. I have a little psycho right now and the most she does is bat at one of the glass icicles as she walks by.
