Keeping a Christmas tree up year round

[coles1mom]

I've got a 3 foot purple Christmas tree that is up. Changes decorations with the hoildays.
St. Patrick's day green was the oddest color mix thus far.

I mean, honestly, who ever heard of a purple Christmas tree

I'm sure my neighbors are talking about me.

My Christmas wreath is still up!! It's not on my front door but on the side wall next to it. I kept forgetting about it and then when I went to throw it away, a bird had started to make a nest in it. Now my DGS's have seen it and I don't have the heart to toss it. So, now I guess I'll have to wait until the chicks are born and fly away.

Our Christmas wreath was on our chimney till a couple of days ago when the wind knocked it down.

In our defense, it's been pretty snowy, icy, slushy, slippery here since Christmas, so I didn't want DH going up on a ladder and I can let wreaths "slide" a little because I consider them a winter decoration more than a purely Christmas decoration.

A Christmas tree is a Christmas tree though.

I have a hot pink tree for my office! With bright ornaments. I it.

My SIL left one up year round, in the family room. She decorated it differenlty each month.

I have one that hangs on the wall. It gets redecorated every season w/ Smores. I have Easter ones, summer ones, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas/Winter.

I used to live in a military town. Many homes had trees up while there loved ones were deployed. They waited and celebrated Christmas when the returned.

I have a wall tree as well; I inherited it from my grandmother. I usually have it decorated with sports-related stuff during that particular season (it's all in blue & gold now for Blues hockey; in a little while, it'll be red and white for the Cardinals). My grandmother always got such a huge kick out of decorating it for each holiday or season that I can't bear not to have it up and "done."
