We bought a package of non-breakable ornaments to put up this year as a test to see if the cat wrecked the tree. lol (We haven't had one up in years!) So far he's left it alone. ^_^ Next year I'll pull out my special faerie baubles and other fragile ornaments now that I know it's safe. Mind you, just those sparkly red and gold ornaments really looks nice! I think it's the prettiest tree we've ever had this year. The tree itself is fake. In the past we would go out and harvest one from the woods (You're allowed to get one tree from crown land a year) but the apartment doesn't allow real trees. But I really like the one we bought. ^_^

I wish I had somewhere to put a second tree so that I could have the coordinated, professional looking tree and the eclectic popsicle stick ornament tree.

I love my fairy ornaments, they're from... some collection (I can't remember which one). We also have a fairy tree topper that compliments them... but it doesn't work with the tree this year so we have a classic 'Father Christmas' one on top. I would love to get a pentacle tree topper at some point. ^_^

Oh, a second tree would be awesome, though idk if we've got the space. I wanna do themed trees... There's a goth home decorator who makes very cool gothic looking trees but I'd also love to do like a 'just pokemon' tree or maybe a complete LotR or DnD tree, just swords elves and rings, lol, ooo maybe an eye of Sauron tree topper (which idk if it exists, but it should, and it should light up!) ...Oh, I'm all in nerding on a LotR one as I'm thinking about it, perhaps making it to complicated, but if you set everything up in story order, like hobbits at the bottom, orcs and nazgul next, and work your way to the volcano... ya, I can picture this, (-8

Exactly, Mr. Pooka! Rasa and I were discussing setting up our next tree as a dwarf tree with geometric ornaments in metallic colors and such. Also, I forgot to say that I am a great-aunt again as of about 7:30 this morning. My niece had her baby girl, Diana.
