Christmas+Disney+new Christmas Tree makes Shuttergirl very happy

[Ms. Shuttergirl]

Today I gave birth to our 4th Christmas tree and it was a bouncing Disney tree baby.

The kids did all the decorating and "control freak me" tried very hard to not interfere. I think it looks beautiful.

It obviously needs a few more decorations but that just means I need to plan some more trips to the land of the mouse:-

Did yOu need stitches after the delivery?

Looks a bit of a prickly delivery to me.....

 

[PrincessInOz]

Shuttergirl - I love your Christmas tree! Yes....lots more trips to Disney to fill it up but I think you might need a new tree if you do...it already looks perfectly filled to me.

 

[Ms. Shuttergirl]

Yes it was a spikey delivery but definitely worth it.

PIO - I believe in really cramming the decorations onto a tree . This one looks positively bare to me compared to my other trees. Definitely something to work on.

It was lovely getting the ornaments out because we bought them over the past 2 years but left them stored until I had the right tree to put them on. Each ornament brought back a memory or reminded us of something we love. They were mainly chosen as a "memory" at the time so they are really special.

I've missed seeing you around here. Nice that you're back a bit more.

Is Paris next on your list?


ssst: I'm heading to Hong Kong in April....my PTR is on the Hong Kong section)

Some more recent purchases:-

Oh the last 4 ornaments you posted are just divine! I have to have them too!!! Where did you buy them from?

Our tree is also usually jam-packed, I love them busy! But because we buy real trees, a lot of the beautiful Disney ornaments are too heavy for it. Actually a lot of the ordinary ornaments they sell in the shop are too heavy for it.

Awww your tree is so pretty. I spy princesses. My tree is up too but it's mainly filled with cheap kmart ornaments with a few Disney ones.

Love Love Love the tree.

We are gong to buy a new tree to put up in our room at DLH or Christmas. We will get some new decorations and next year we will have our own Disney tree which will make three. If only the cats wouldn't sleep in the Christmas tree. Love the Tink naughty and nice and Eeyore.

Thanks Ms Shuttergirl

Shushh, I bought them earlier in the year online from Cherry Lane Keepsakes and shipped them into the country via my US address. Generally for whatever reason you can't ship Jim Shore stuff in directly so by doing it via my US address is was easy. The prices are nearly half what you pay here but the selection is much much better. The freight probably brings the pricing to just under what we pay here because the stuff is quite heavy and packaged large. I think it was totally worth it lol.

There are a few more pieces yet but I think they are hidden. Don't want to give my husband a heart attack bringing them all out at once

All of my 4 trees are mixed with expensive and cheap stuff. The small baubles on the new Disney tree I got from Big W and they were $1.97 for 3 which was a bargain considering they have a real Disney look about them and matched some of my existing Disney stuff.

Love Love Love the tree.

That's a great idea Mia, it will be wonderful next year when you get the decorations all out, they will always remind you of Christmas at Disney

Ms.Shuttergirl the tree is gorgeous! Is the topper Mickey Ears or is it an actual tree topper? I'm hoping it's Mickey Ears.... I'm going to copy your idea if it is, they just look so fantastic!

Oh my goodness, I absolutely love your ornaments too! Particularly Eeorye.

Thanks for sharing

Yep, it's just my Mickey Ears from our first DL visit. They finish the tree off perfectly I think.

 

[aussietravellers]

Just doing our tree Ms. Shuttergirl. Been doing it for 3 hours so far, its a big tree!

Have used your brilliant idea and put mickey ears on top.

Will post a picture when we are finished. Just stopped for a quick dinner, didn't realise how late it was.

 

[aussietravellers]

Here is my tree. Ms. Shuttergirl I have copied your brilliant idea of mickey ears as a tree topper. It isn't a complete Disney tree, but it does have lots of Disney charms that I have collected over the years and also the soft toys that were on our tree that we got from in room celebrations, a couple of years ago at GCH.

We also have a really cute Mickey and Minnie Happy Holidays banner that we hang on our front gate. Will post that when we put it up.

I love the christmas trees! Great idea using the ears for toppers! I put our tree up yesterday but yours are so fun looking...and the decorations are so cute

Some more recent purchases:-

Oh........... I love the Jim Shore stuff - I wish I had one of his nativity sets

 

[Ms. Shuttergirl]

Aussietravellers - your tree looks gorgeous. Love the ears on top and felt like a I was playing where's Wally by scanning over the whole tree looking at the disney decorations. So many gorgeous ones. You've done a great job with it.

I love and hate where's wally at the same time. Love looking sometimes, hate the hard to find ones.

Here are some close ups of a few that are harder to see (some are round the sides).

These are ones that I ordered with Photopass, they are ceramic.
