So I didn't get to put up everything and I have to admit I am a shameless hoarder of Christmas decorations, but I wanted to share some of our Christmas decor before it all has to be packed away again for another year!
Antique Ceramic Christmas Tree from my Paternal Grandma Dorothy. She had a ceramics studio and craft store in our town before I was was born. She passed away shortly after Christmas when I was about six.
I have an "uncoordinated" tree because I love the kid ornaments and the ones we have collected over the years. I even have one that is from the first tree my parents had together!
New to me Christmas Village! I got it for free from Facebook! With bubble lights and garland in the background!

I agree with Grace. I love your ceramic tree. It reminds me of Christmas when I was a child. Many of my parents decorations where just like that. Also I love your Christmas village. I have a bit of an obsession with my Christmas village and I'm always adding more and more each year. I am probably up to 30 houses by now. Sadly this year I didn't get them out. I had so much going on with life I never got around them. Next year will be better.

I have a small lighted ceramic tree that my Mom made one year when she was having fun at a local ceramic shop. I like to use it on the top shelf of my old vintage stove in the kitchen along with a few other vintage items that belonged to Mom as well. For many years, I was not that interested in these ceramic pieces, but now that I am much older, I appreciate them. When lit up, they are very cheerful and easy to use when decorating a bigger tree is not possible. I am glad you have this family heirloom to enjoy in your family traditions now!

I have been able to collect a few of these,, and as is with most of these,,, over the years the previous owners lost/misplaced the pegs,,, but thank goodness I was able to go online and find a couple of companies that sell the colorful pegs,,, I think I might order a set of clear ones for one of my trees,,, as well as more colorful ones for the other trees... I luv the internet,,, you can find anything and everything all from the comfort of ones recliner...lol!

I love Christmas decorations and hope some day to be able to slow down enough to enjoy the holiday season. Between Thanksgiving and Christmas travel, annual cookie making marathon the holidays usually slip away from us too fast. I did get some decorations up, but hope to get everything I own and store each year up all at once.

Yes I had to order the new pegs from amazon a few years ago. It came in a package of 100 so I don't stress if I find some on the floor!
