Thanks
I posted for ideas on the dis design thread and "Tenlynn" suggested using berries ,pom poms or bells ,anything round. I find the dis design thread friendly and the Canadian thread but stay away from the other "less friendly threads. Anyhow I think they turned out great and can hardly wait to use them,,thanks

So cute Melly...sorry I couldn't help ya figure out posting pics. Now I'm gonna make you help ME instead. HA!!!!
The Dis still has redeemable reason d'etre. Just stay away from dwarfs!!!!
I love the bells and the pretty ribbons in contrasting shades. Maybe if my kid really does go to Bali for Xmas, I'll have to come sleep in your hallway (like the drunks at BWV)

And then you have the Animal Kingdom Lodge Christmas colors, which are amber, red, and white. We did our tree in that theme, and it was surprisingly relaxing but still Christmas-sy

Good morning Patsy
Because of the new baggage allowance on planes I was going to not take a tree but that would be like not believing in Santa Claus for me. My sons are going to pack it in their suitcase --actually in it's box it's not that much space,,I'll take the decorations with me.Now I'm on a mission to either make or find stockings or santa sacks.
Yes I'm a over compulsive planner,,;)

You can have a small tree shipped USPS, UPS or FEdEX - sending it ground, the longest ship time for a very reasonable price. Last year there was a Christmas Tree exchange that was great.

Love the bells - so colorful & festive and DISNEY!!!
We will be at SSR the first week of December and this will be our first trip as DVC owners - do people decorate their balconies and such during that week or just during Christmas week?
My 2 favorite things Disney & Christmas - love going this time of year - so if we can decorate I can now include some holiday decorating n my planning!!:jumpingbe
Those are so cute, Mel. I wish I were crafty like you.

Thanks Niki ,,,Hon I'm not crafty at all,,really...
cmorg --hi --yes everyone that I know usually does decorate their rooms for the holidays,,one way I've done inexpensive decorating is to print off some clip art of Disney's and pin he pics on the curtains in the room....now I am careful not to damage any of Disney's property.
Lots of people hang lights and decorate small trees .
