Have you started to decorate for Christmas yet? Sadly, some stores have been putting out holiday items since September (that is pushing it!). As the days go on more and more holiday decorations appear. I’ve even been hearing Christmas songs on the radio!
I have to admit that we are sort of decorated for Christmas. My husband tries to get the outside lights and decorations up a bit early while the weather is still decent. The longer he waits the colder it gets. In fact this weekend we are suppose to go down to the teens in temperatures.
We wait until after Thanksgiving to put up our light up Santa and Frosty. We also don’t turn the outside lights on until after Thanksgiving. If my son had it his way the light would be on already. He’s anxious to be able to turn them on.
We also don’t put up our Christmas tree until the weekend after Thanksgiving. We have an artificial Christmas tree. It’s 16 years old and showing it’s age. We’d love to get one of those pre-lit trees that go together in three pieces. Our current tree you have to assemble branch by branch, then you have to deal with putting on lights only to find out that they don’t work.
I would love to get a real one but with our current living situation the tree would have to go in front of the sliding glass door which means it will get constant sunlight all day long and that will cause it to dry out quicker. Dried holiday tress make me nervous. I wouldn’t want to risk a house fire.
I have started to put up decorations here and there. Most of our stuff we won’t be able to hang up because we purged our home of “stuff” when we were on the market. Our stuff is EVERYWHERE – in our storage room, our neighbor’s storage room and in my father’s basement upstate. I can’t locate a lot of our stuff, including our wreath for the front door and our wreath hook. Sigh… At least I have a few of our decorations up and a few more that I’ll put up soon. I just need to find something for the front door.
Do you put up a wreath on your front door? If so, what kind of wreath do you use – a real one or an artificial one?
How would you like to win a wreath?
Tree Classics has generously offered to give a lucky reader a beautiful Venetian Elegance Christmas Wreath for the holidays.
According to the website;
The Venetian Elegance Christmas Wreath and Garland are one of Tree Classics’ time-honored favorites. Decorated with pine cones, bronze ornaments, gold streaks, and red flowers, the wreath and garland create a festive ambiance that everyone will recall happily for years to come.
The Venetian Elegance Wreath is a beautiful all-weather wreath for both indoor and outdoor use. Sporting a mix of PVC and real pine needles, this wreath is made from flame-proof material that makes it safe to use during this most festive of holidays. The Venetian Elegance Christmas Garland is perfect for doorways or atop the mantel, and its sparkling clear lights will add a unique glow to your family’s holiday activities.
It’s beautiful. I like that it’s a mix of real and fake pine needles and that it can last for years. They also offer matching garland.

Thank you for this giveaway! This is super adorable. I never really used to get into the Holidays but as I grow older I really enjoy making my house festive for the Hoidays!
Maureen says
The fact is that it is beautiful.
I would love to win for my parents. They live in a condo and do not have the room for a tree. They do like the look of Holidays but they haven’t had the ability to have things like that around in the last few years due to some health situations. This would enable them to have holiday when the grandchildren come over (which they do quite often). My nieces and nephews asked where did Santa put their presents since they didn’t have tree and he couldn’t put it under the tree. This would give the grand kids a chance to see that Christmas doesn’t necessarily need the tree.
