It really gets me in the mood of the season to see such festive decorations.
Thank you, Polly, it all looks GREAT!

Everything is lovely Polly. I wish I could put my Santa collection around my tree. Sometimes I really hate having dogs and cats in my house.

Ursula doesn't even lift her hound nose at those sorts of things unless, of course, there is a cookie somewhere around.

Polly, I love your trees and decorations. I wish we had room for a large tree, I sort of miss that.

Very Christmassy Polly, a job well done! Your front porch looks great and the Santa collection tops it all off. You know you could kind of class them as gnomes Smile

Thanks for taking the time to post your pics :

Up until this year we had a much larger tree - usually 9 ft. tall and anchored with a string at the top to the ceiling. This year, we inherited my Mother's round oak table and there was no room for the tree unless it went on top of the table. So thus we have a 6 ft. tree on top of thetable.

I don't decorate for x-mas. I just can't be bothered. But I really enjoy other peoples fantastic efforts. Yours look wonderful.
