1940's Christmas tree's?

Tinsel was always a big deal, bubble lights,glass balls and various shaped ornaments kept over the years, paper or popcorn chains, large multi-color bulb tree lights surrounded by angel hair which was spun asbestos, no metalic garland, single color lights or mini lights. Tree toppers were usually an angel or a star, nothing too wild.

Hi..\n\nI remember when my mom bought a flocked tree year's ago.   They do well for about 3-4 years, but eventually do start to fade, turn yellow, and flake.   \n(giggling)  That is when they also bought little fake apples to hang on the tree...funny.. didn't know pine tree's grew apples.  LOL  Oohhh those were the day's.   \n\nGood luck with your tree hunting..

You can get one of those little 2 foor fake Christmas trees and then they do have lights that run on batteries. But if it is cold where you live the batteries will die faster outside in the cold. That's a cool idea

We have a 7 ft. artificial tree. I just bought this one. I always decorate my tree with blue and silver garland and glass ornaments. I also add the Hallmark ornaments my daughters get each year. I got a pre-lit tree this year so there's one thing I won't have to deal with...lol. My girls might finally be able to help with putting the angel on top.

Do you live in the part of the country that still has a living garden? You could make large Christmas packages, light them up and place them in your garden. Place some on their sides, giving the appearance that they fell out of Santa's sled. This site will give you ideas of how NOT to decorate your garden.I must admit that they are different though.\nhttp://www.uglychristmaslights.com

try stringing life savers on fishing line.  they catch the lights very nicely, and they're yummy to boot!  make it a candy theme, with candy canes, cookies and other favorite sweets.  i myself prefer theme-less trees.  just stick on as many lights and ornaments as you can.  the gaudier, the better.  merry christmas!

YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS A CHILD (I'M 61)  THAT WAS THE CUSTOM\n\nCHRISTMAS TREES WERE ALWAYS, WITHOUT EXCEPTION, PUT UP ON CHRISTMAS EVE AND TAKEN DOWN ON ''LITTLE CHRISTMAS'' JAN. 6TH....I STILL CARRY ON THAT TRADITION FOR MY GRANDCHILDREN.

My roommate and I asked my Mom what she wanted for Christmas (30 years ago). Her reply was,"A money tree". I think she was trying to be "cute". Well, we got a branch from a tree, spray painted it with gold paint. Then we put it in a flower pot(painted gold). And took $50.00 worth of one dollar bills and fan folded them and taped them on the branches. Took change and taped them into a chain and draped it around the the "tree". When she open it, she laughed so hard she had tears in her eyes.

My Christmas tree is so full of stuff that you barely notice the tree!\nI have a really nice fake tree, but the more stuff you have on it, the less likely you are to notice the 'fake' parts.\n\nI love tons of multi-colored lights.  I have some that flash and some that don't, evenly dispersed throughout the tree.  I also use strands of non-flashing white lights amongst the colored, to really show off my crystal ornaments. I use gold and/or silver garland, lots and lots of ornaments, unique ones and also colored balls, also strategically spread out around the tree, and a small amount of carefully placed silver icicles to seal the deal.  It takes a lot of time to decorate, but year after year, everyone who sees it remarks on how beautiful it is.  And it truly is NOT tacky looking.  My husband & I spend our evenings admiring it throughout the holidays.  It has so much character that it really draws you in.\n\nThat's MY idea of how a Christmas tree should look, but that's the really cool thing about trees; it's a totally individual thing.  What works for one person isn't right for another.  I guess the question is what you want your tree to say about YOU.  Do you want simple and elegant or do you want lively and fun?\n\nHappy decorating!\n\nPolly

UMMM AWESOME QUESTION! I TEND TO PONDER ABOUT THIS AS WELL.  The decoration gods have just notified me about the times and dates of the decor of Christmas.  They are as follows:\n\nDec.1 at 12:01 am. and they have informed me that you have to cut down your own tree, and decorate it on DEC. 9 at 4:30 in the afternoon.  If you should have any questions about the decoration gods and times of decoration please feel free to call this 1800 number...1800-337-7378
