What's yours like?

Ours is artificial, why? Cos it was cheap in Tescos.  Only just got it out today,  the lights are on it, but not decorated yet.  Nothing designer for me, some bits and baubles dating back to my childhood and festive makes of the lad's from the '90s. Plenty of mum's favourites in memorium.
Will try to post a pic when it's finished. 

Other peoples pics  would be nice too.

Here's mine although the photo was taken 2 years ago. It looks exactly the same today although the flowers are dead!!
Artificial tree for me. It’s not up yet. Will take photos when it is.
Erm, artificial, here are our decorations.

Not had a big tree since we moved, no room!!!

Artificial here too. It is more than 20 years old now! It'll go up the Saturday before Christmas as usual.
Look forward to seeing a picture later PP.
Artificial here also, we bought a new tree this year after 17 years with the last one it had got a bit tatty and bare looking. Let’s see if this photo will up load.

We used to have real trees until our Fox terrier cocked its leg and did a wee up it Sad we bought a false tree but gave up with trees altogether about 7 or 8 years ago.
We just decorate the mantelpiece these days.
We have several trees this year all artificial. My tree from my old house, 7ft which is in the lounge, my wife's old tree from before we moved in together which is a little table top job as she used to live in a small place, and new for this year, my grandad's old tree which we inherited this year and is now in the hall decorated with half existing silver baubles and half home made twiggy decs sprayed up in gold paint
Here's pics of mine, with and without lights.  Not particularly sophisticated but very nostalgic.
