Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree...

Yes I know, I know it is only 4th December and far too early for putting up your Christmas tree but I have been feeling really festive since we hit December this year (personally I think it is because I am not forced to be cheery as I am not working at a supermarket for the first time since 2006) and after I bought some extra decorations for our first Christmas in the flat at the weekend, it seemed only right to put up our tree as early as possible, sorry not sorry...


The decorations are a mix of cute wooden decorations from parents and garish shiny baubles from Primark...


Mark and I said that we would slowly amass decorations of our own and we thought this was a fitting start to out collection. My favourite decoration has to be this wooden heart decoration, carved from the finest English oak, which we bought at Ludlow medieval fair a few weekends ago...


...or this cute little gingerbread man from Wilkinsons, I can't decide! 


And just because everyone loves a gif, right?

When do you put up your Christmas tree? Are you in the festive spirit yet?
