The Christmas tree is one of my favourite 'christmasy' things.......DD2 and I decorated it at the weekend......she was in charge......apparently she has better taste than me.....and certain 'tacky' decorations are not allowed on the tree.....but they're still hiding in the bottom of the box.......waiting their chance in future years!!!
Our ancient lights had given up the ghost......so a new 'multi function' set were purchased.....and for my JYC Journal entry I decided to focus on the lights this year.
sorry for slightly blurry photo
You can tell I'm not a great photographer.....but I still like the effect of the lights against the dark background.

Just pop the 'tacky' decs up when she's not looking .... the lights look great!
Fab layout and your tree looks great, Jacky. As for the decorations deemed too tacky - how about sneaking them on round the back?
Happy Friday

The lights look beautiful. And as for decorations? "anything goes" trees are my favourite kind
Our tree's going up tomorrow - tacky decorations and all! :)
Jacky, I received a beautiful Christmas card yesterday - I didn't recognise the writing but as soon as I opened the envelope I recognised the layering and matting :) Thank you so much! xx
LOVE your layout, Jacky. I think you got some really nice photos of the lights. I just love that little strand of Christmas lights embellishing the top of your page too! ;o)
Great LO Jacky...the pics of the lights came out well!

Cookie baking this afternoon; decorations coming out maybe, too. The tree will go up on Sunday! Finally, it will look like Christmas around here.

We start decorating today (Saturday) I decorated at my parents last weekend and put up most of the tacky ones but some seemed extra tacky and they had no connection to our family. I think one of their tenants must have left a box behind in one of the townhouses. They are beyond tacky. I love lights off and Christmas lights on, a great JYC topic :)
We still put up the elegant with the tacky. They all have memories attached, but I have to admit I moved a few of the tackiest ones to the back sides of the tree! Love the little lights you found to embellish your page.
