Slowly but surely the Christmas decorations are appearing in our house.
Before the cold drizzle arrived yesterday, we made a quick trip to the Sertoma tree lot.
Once upon a time like back in the late 70's, we would search the woods at my aunt's house for a cedar tree. Much cheaper than Christmas trees purchased from tree lots. I loved the smell of cedar in the house. Although trying to decorate the tree was a pain .....literally....hands were easily scratched from cedar leaves.
Those days are long gone. Today it is a quick trip to a lot for a North Carolina fir. More costly but...
much easier on the hands.
Now to get the lights and decorations on the tree.
For Monday Mosaics at Little Red House I'm sharing decorations from past Christmases.
Enjoy....

I miss having a real tree. And I had forgotten about oranges with cloves...of course 5 minutes ago is a mystery...must go buy some oranges...wonderful mosaic.
I enjoyed your mosaic! Your house must smell good with the fir tree in it. Our artificial tree doesn't smell. :)
This just puts you in the Christmas spirit. Thanks!
I love the real tree too, lovely mosaic made of your ornaments.
What a pretty and festive mosaic! Thanks for sharing, Leslie! :)
