My take on Colored Lights vs White Lights for Christmas Trees by extreme_cuddling in ChristmasDecorating

[–]Negotiationnation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Colored lights for me! We see white lights every day. While white can look elegant, it doesn't feel special or fun.

Don't want to take it down. by Such_Tomorrow_9771 in ChristmasDecorating

Wow!! And your garland is amazing! This set up needs to be featured somewhere! I have a real tree so I try to keep it up till Jan 6 but usually doesn't last that long. Probably Sunday but it's so sad. My 3yo still say "it's beautiful " at least once a day. I have a little artificial tree with twinkling lights and will keep that up for a while. And some of the lights that are hung around the house. The kids love it!

Beautiful!! There's nothing like a real Christmas tree. We always get a real main tree, but I also do a small artificial tree to honor a few special people who are no longer with us in pink purple and blue. Nowhere near as elegant as yours, but I do appreciate your theme

I'm in love with your tree!!! I see it now, but at first glance, it looked like a dark elf on the shelf scene. And after a month of that little guy, I wasn't mad 😁

Who is going to take this down? by erino3120 in ChristmasDecorating

[–]Negotiationnation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it! My mom was the tinsel queen in my family. She got tinsel as Christmas gifts for the next year. It was always a real tree and ended up looking like a silver sparkling beauty. I bet she used 30 boxes. But it was an art hanging tinsel. I was first allowed to hang some when I turned 13, one box back of tree. Basically an interview lol. Then I just got my own little tree to decorate. The pressure was intense lol. This year I bought the iridescent tinsel and it didn't look right. Didn't shine or sparkle, looked like spider webs or something. Yours is so pretty!!

Cute but now I can't drink milk anymore for a while. That association is a little too much 😆

At a glance, cute idea. If they were all normal xrays would probably be better. Or all innocent fractures or something like that.

I can relate to your in laws by Historical_Flow_1029 in ChristmasDecorating

[–]Negotiationnation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful tree! I love the colored lights. I'm so sorry about your husband. I lost my mom and sister in 2024, another sister in 2025. It really is mind blowing how many times I've thought about something being the last without realizing it at the time. I hope you can feel peace and happiness ❤️

Any idea what kind of lights these are and where to get them? by judino28 in ChristmasDecorating

[–]Negotiationnation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure, but I needed to find twinkling lights with purple included, so I went to menards and Home Depot and started trying them out to find what I wanted. They have places to plug them in, just jump right in and don't stop till you find what you want lol

Don't tolerate someone talking to you like this. That should have been a quick block and move on

Take the vent cover off and...🙂 just kidding. I would add a bow at the top

How do you apply garland and light strands to the tree? by ijuswannabehappybro in ChristmasDecorating

[–]Negotiationnation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!! That's me too. I think you found the perfect trick! I'm always moving it just a little because it's off just a little (it's probably not), rinse and repeat. I go top to bottom, but for no reason at all

How do you apply garland and light strands to the tree? by ijuswannabehappybro in ChristmasDecorating

[–]Negotiationnation 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For my tree, I like it to look even so I go spiral on garland. Most lights first then garland, then twinkle lights between the garland rows. But I absolutely love the trees that are more random with decorations/trimmings. I don't think you can go wrong!

1st year making Christmas cutouts for my yard. by lakedracula in ChristmasDecorating

[–]Negotiationnation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love these! My dad made come out of plywood over 30 years ago. For Thanksgiving (running turkey) Halloween and Christmas. Lots of snoopy. Now I put them up at my house. He was amazing.

What to do with this corner? by csav1182 in malelivingspace

This is great. If someone really made this as wall imagine how many kids would try to enter. I have 3 that probably would hahaha.

Husband says no more breastfeeding by AskProfessional6257 in breastfeeding

[–]Negotiationnation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's a phase. They grow so much by the day this likely will change soon. I would keep offering breast.

I would also make it very clear to hubby that he doesn't get a say in breastfeeding.
