I put my tree up the other day; so pretty! I had to rearrange my living room and I keep tripping over an ottoman, but it's worth it.
This guy was a gift from an old roommate. I'm fond of him! The silver pinecone is a real one dipped in something silvery (though I think we can safely rule out silver, LOL!) my sister got me years ago, and the cross-stitched snowman a gift from a friend in high school. I don't have a "decorator tree." I don't really have any two ornaments alike, but they all have memories!
