O my gosh those were the days. When making it back then you had to have a hammer and a nail and a couple of drinking glasses to put the coconut on top of to drain.Thanks for posting that. Made me think of my mom.
I love a live tree and the smell of it but i have had more problems with one. One died on me before Christmas and i have had a couple of the stands leak on the floor. Artificial is the best way for me to go.
I bet that is just beautiful. I used to decorate inside and out side all the way to the road and across my front yard. I don;t do that much decorating any more. Just enough to add just a little christmas cheer .
