Christmas and Winter Questionnaire Day Two: Decorations

I borrowed questions and ideas from: here, here, and here.

~Real or fake tree
We have almost always had a fake tree. My dad doesn’t like the bother of a real tree. When I have my own family I want a real tree. Actually, I’d like to have a tiny tree in my room, but that hasn’t ever worked out yet.

~When do you decorate?
Usually shortly after Thanksgiving. This year I think it was a week after.

~Who decorates?
It used to be everyone, but now it is mostly Mom and the little girls. Certain of them have very specific tastes/styles/ideas.

~Do you decorate your room?
My room is usually in a state of disorder as far as design and organization goes, so most Christmas decorations either would not match or would be lost in the busyness, but I do have one neat half bookcase that I’ve decorated this year plus a adorable little bell wreath hanging on the doorknob outside my door.

~When do you take the tree down?
Usually shortly after Christmas.

~White or multi-colored lights
White all the way, definitely more elegant.

~Outside lights
We don’t have any, but I love a some white lights with candles in the windows and wreaths and garlands.
