… and not a moment too soon, IMHO. The problem was that our tree, though workable, was really too big. We have a small house and limited places where a tree will fit at all. But I finally found a pre-lit tree that could fit on an end table quite nicely, and it arrived on Friday. It took quite a while to “fluff” out the branches for the first time, but it’s all decorated today, leaving me delighted that I have a lovely tree to enjoy for the next few weeks. 🙂 This spot, near the front door is really the only workable solution to where to put the tree; and a larger, fuller tree blocks the little hallway just behind in the photo. The closed door you may be able to see in that little hallway opens into my quilting/computer room, so I get to enjoy the tree while I’m doing what I like best!

Congratulations on finding a workable solution. It looks like the perfect location, especially if you can enjoy it while you are in your quilting/computer room. Be Jolly!
We suffer from lack of space too, and have used the same table top tree since we bought our southern home many years ago. I brought along some of my favourite ornaments to enjoy each year, including the remaining glass ornaments that we’ve had since our first Christmas together. Your tree is lovely!
Thanks, Susan! We still have many of our early ornaments, too, but many have broken and others actually belonged to our daughters, for whom we bought a new ornament each year while they were growing up. Now I buy for our grandchildren instead. 🙂
