FINAL LIST 10/28/11 - 9th Annual DVC Christmas Tree Exchange

[Fantasmic303]

Just PM'd you, MrShiny!

 

[MrShiny]

Just updated. Note your dates may change as I try to fit more families in. I'm trying to give 12/24-26 to the first requester when possible.

We could use another tree at BLT and one at Jambo house, if anyone is thinking of donating.

Thanks MrShiny!!! Can't wait to hear about your tree and can't wait to share it with you!

 

[Rhode Island Quahog]

I'm no longer interested in participating. Can you please remove my name from the BLT tree list? Thanks!

 

[MrShiny]

Sorry to see you drop out RIQ. Thanks for letting us know.

I thought we had to cancel our stay due to work issues...looks like we are still going. It all worked out. Can we get back in, even if its on BLT tree # 2? Our dates are 12/8 through 12/16. Let me know. Thanks again!

Hold that thought - we may need that, but let's wait until we are closer to see which resort needs it most. Thanks!

Do we have pics of the trees in the past to reference what sort of decor looks good on them?

I'm still toying with how I want to decorate our tree (it's just a natural looking, flat bottom, outdoor tree I've used in both the house and the garden) but the branches are so small and delicate on these little trees, it'll be tricky finding the right ornaments - and I don't really want to go all mickey/Disney on it.

Here's the tree I was fortunate enough to share 2 yrs. ago. It was donated by magicalmcwho I believe. Such a beautiful little tree. I hope I can do as well with mine. I just bought it a few weeks ago so I need to find some decorations for it.

That's a cute rustic one - fits in well with the lodge - and the birds are a beautiful touch. Hm... getting ideas... Kidani = beads, drums, animals... OK, I see where I'm going with this - I think a visit to Pier One Imports may be in order.

Great idea. I need to think about BLT. Since its kinda art deco, I am thinking a white tree with Blue or green ornaments. Need to look up a pic of the room to get color scheme.

Here are some good pictures of BLT:

This is the tree we got in the share at SSR in 2010. It was more Disney than Horsey, and that's OK too!

Updated the list again! As we get closer, there will be some juggling, so keep watching. We'll get in touch with everyone to confirm after we close the list off on 10/23.

We could always use more trees, so if you are thinking of donating (even to a resort you are not staying at), let me know! We have many overlapping stays, so an extra tree or two would help.
