Can I go minimal for Christmas???

Happy stuff,, They aren't that long, and I start from the top and sort of drape them in a wobbly line, back toward the center. I don't have any ornaments except the little angel.

Hmmm... maybe I need to recheck my 100 strand? Although I now have it in my head that I would rather have multi-color fairy lights on this little tree.

I really prefer multi colored lights for our tree. It makes me so happy to see all the color.

The new ones we looked at this year all had white that switched to color and back--very disconcerting.

I prefer white lights that don't flash or do tricks.

I prefer white lights that don't flash or do tricks.

“Do tricks” is funny..

our new pre-lit xmas tree with its many settings doesn’t do simple white, non flash or fade. Wish it did. Annoying!

Found a set of white fairy lights for $5. Will eventually put them on the little tree and see how it goes. It they work... yay!

that sounds really pretty, happystuff. Since our tree's lights don't work anymore, we put an old string of white lights on them and then bundled the whole thing up in the barn with the lights on, so the branches don't get smushed in the box. Since my dil thought it was a real tree from our property, I guess it looks better than I thought. I hope the varmints don't eat it in the barn.
