How many Christmas trees do you put up?  email this discussion to a friend?

I have noticed the last few years that people around here are putting up two or three Christmas trees in their house.
My neighbor has two, a small one for the dining table and a big one in the living room.
There is this big house down the road that has atleast three big trees. I have never been in there but you can see them all lit up from the road. So they may have another one or two that can't be seen from the road.
My house only has one tree.
Do you have one tree or do you like having more?

My family usually only puts one tree up because we have such a small house and if we decided to put more up, it would seem like there was too much. I know it probably doesn't count but I do have a small indoor "spiral tree" in my bedroom because it looks pretty interesting, especially when I am wrapping gifts and put them under the "tree". I am happy with the just the major tree in the living room, because that's tradition for me and my family.

My house is small too.
Just one tree calls for rearranging the house- moving things to other rooms.
That sounds pretty cool having a spiral tree in your room to keep the gifts under.

We only put up one. Sometimes, we will decorate and outside one or two, but only one goes in the living room of the house. I've seen many people do 3 or 4 trees throughout their house and really feel it make it look overdone and/or cluttered. I guess some people just get so caught up in decorating that they feel they must fill every little space.

I had just never seen it before a few years ago and I wondered if it was a new thing.
The people that live in that huge house was the first one I had ever seen with more than one.

I have one but when my kids were younger they had trees in their rooms.
Just those tiny tiny ones about 6 inches from the pound/dollar shop. You know the ones. They would put their own decoartions on them.
By the way its a dancing rudolph i got now no a santa. Batteries went dud on him.
Rudolph i find up the loft. He bops about & plays music.
Della (dog) goes mad @ it Ruth..too funny !!lol

Never saw a dancing Rudolph.
Sounds hilarious. Sometimes you gotta play it just for a laugh at the pet.lollol

When I was a kid my down just cut one down in the woods when he was out during deer season.
We go to a tree farm.
I couldn't imagine trying to stick two trees in my tiny house.

When I was growing up, we had two trees, one upstairs and one downstairs. The one upstairs was the "fragile tree" with fragile ornaments. The one downstairs was the kids' tree and contained ornaments that we made in school and other child-like ornaments. Our presents were put under our tree, so we opened packages downstairs. Now that we are older and not living there, my Mom only puts up the "fragils tree" and it is beautiful :)


myLot reputation of 98/100. Ruthep (7334)   ranked 64 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

So its not really a new thing?
I thought it was cause I had never seen it. It was something I never thought about.
But I guess by doing it that way you can have the really nice, elegant tree and the eclectic tree with a mix of everything.

This is the first year that we will have two! I am putting my old artificial tree on the front porch. I need to buy some new lights for it. I won't completely decorate it however. Just feeling extra Christmas-y this year!


myLot reputation of 98/100. Ruthep (7334)   ranked 64 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

I am feeling pretty festive this year myself, but I'll still make do with my one.
Happy Decorating!!

My family and i usually go with your standard singular tree. However in the past we have used one or two fake tree's around the house along with our usual tree we go and cut down. However this year we just had an addition added to the house so we will see how it goes... who knows, maybe we'll go out on a limb (no pun intended) and get ourselves multiple tree's.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Ruthep (7334)   ranked 64 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

Christmas only comes once a year so if you feel it you should have as many as you want.
Merry Christmas!

Just one. A little wire one from the dollar store. :)


myLot reputation of 98/100. Ruthep (7334)   ranked 64 out of 26,920 in people  4 years ago

Sounds like our first tree.
Not sure what even became of it.
Now we just go to the tree farm and pick one out.
Enjoy the season!

We have yet to get our tree but we do also have a little singing Christmas tree that was a gift from my husband's grandmother. It is motion activated and is always scaring the cat half to death. So for now it is still packed away.lol
