It’s not too soon to write about Christmas when both the John Lewis and the Coca Cola adverts have been on TV is it?
I hope not anyway because I have a great competition for you today to win a beautiful blossom tree from Christmas Tree World.
A blossom tree is a lovely alternative to a traditional Christmas tree although it appears that a blossom tree is not just suitable for Christmas as I have Miss Frugal looking over my shoulder right now asking if she can have one for her bedroom all year round!
All you need to do to get your hands on a five foot blossom tree of your own is tell me in the comments if you have a colour co-ordinated tree or an anything goes tree. Β Easy!
There’s a couple of other things you can do to get extra entries but they’re not compulsory.







colour co-ordinated!
anything goes if i like it it goes on
I have a blue CHristmas tree and I love it π
its an everything tree – there are home-made ornaments made by the kids, my first glass bauble I bought 30 years ago, baubles from my mum's old tree – nothing matches – but its so traditional i love it!!
I would like it all to be nordic.
An anything goes tree with lots of lovely bright colours.
We have a decorated by children tree, all are handmade and 'special'
Anything goes tree.
Anything goes in our house as we have a tree in nearly every room
Gold, Red with lots of crystals.
anything goes tree for us x
Colour coordinated, red and gold. Bit traaditional but I like it as it's something I used to do with my Mum before she passed away, and also I have some decs I really love and want to continue using.
colour co-ordinated tree white tree blue lights
The baubles and tinsel are coordinated but I also have lots of other tree ornaments that don't exactly go. Once I'm finished decorating it looks like someone has thrown Christmas at my tree!
Both!
coordinated π X
My tree goes away covered in a sheet every year, ornaments and all! Why? They are a collection from my childhood and my children's and now my grandchildren's. Some of them are over 60 years old so are a bit fragile but I couldn't bear to replace them. So many multi-coloured memories π
I did start off trying to have a colour co-ordinated tree but it never quite happened so anything goes to an certain extend.
I have a colour co-ordinated tree.
I had to buy an emergency pop up tree as all my shed contents were stolen Decorations included. This year I want to make it special

i have no tree (sigh) but would probably make some decs and use what I have ,so probably not at all co-ordinated!
Mine is totally co-ordinated with red and silver.
Most of the things on our tree are hand-made by the children. They look terribly tatty as they come out every year, but it is what makes the tree special.
An anything goes tree
not really, just what we gathered over the years
anything goes on our tree-would love a coordinated colour scheme but my boys love getting in there.
Silver & gold on our tree
we have a blue, pink, lime green and orange tree π all bright and cheery
Anything goes!
Not exactly an anything goes tree, but every decoration my son has ever made or chosen goes on the tree, so it does look a bit 'eclectic'!
I try to just use red and gold, but the children like to add anything they can
since having the kids it's an anything goes tree!
Colour co-ordinated but tempted to head down the other route for a change…. π
Last few years it’s been blue and silver with kids home made decs added more and more each year
I like a traditional tree with old and new ornaments.
Two colours on our tree, they change every year, this year it’s going to be black and silver
I'm any anything goes girl, like everything in my house really!
Anything goes – I use anything available
I'd love a colour-coordinated one but have been outvoted by hubby and daughter!

Anything goes, although I normally have pearl lights not coloured ones. I love all my old decorations – some of which the children made in school.
Anything goes, the more the merrier!
We have a fibre optic tree which glows in different colours
Oh goodness! Always colour co-ordinated.
Mine’s always co-ordinated.

Mines not at all coordinated, but full of memories
Mainly red and silver but i get a decoration every year for jessica and we put the year on it, and it goes all around the bottom of the tree… to make another year !!!
Colour coordinating, mine is purple and silver
my tree is 14 years old and lob sided but i brought it the year my grandaughter was born and it has new items added each year so its getting pretty full with new decorations that we all love.so its a mass of different colours

Ours is an anything goes tree lol dont have much choice when the kids decorate it lol
It's kind of co-ordinated in that nothing bought clashes, but I also havethe first decorations my children made as toddlers and a bauble each with their names on so not completely themed
It completely depends on what my children put on it π
Red and Gold but our tree is also full of lots of special decorations that have lots of meaning to us.
Ours is mostly red and gold but with a few personal treasures that we have both collected through the years and which Christmas wouldn't be complete without.
Anything goes.
We don't have our own tree yet even though we moved in together 4 years ago. The tree at my mums house is amazing – anything goes. There are mcdonalds Baubles for the 1980's , vodoo dolls and 100 year old glass baubles.
A bit of both.

colour coordinated tree
Colour co-ordinated, all white and silver, looks lovely on a real tree.

Anything goes – particularly if it's homemade as it makes it very personal!
Anything goes! Lots of different types of baubles on the tree!
Ours is mostly colour co-ordinated but we always add on any nostalgic baubles or anything my son has made at school.
Ours is a mix, mainly blues but I buy one new decoration every year that means something to me so slightly mish mash too!
My tree is a real mixture! All the decorations I have collected over the years from different place, decorations my son made a primary school (he's 25 now!) – just a real mixture and I love it.

My Christmas tree usually has red and silver decorations on it, together with a few pieces that my daughter made at school..
Anything goes tree π
Ours is colour coordinated – but a few random favourites are always added.

My tree is not colour co-ordinated but is laden with decorations that mean something to me
At the moment, we have an anything goes tree but I would love to have a colour-coordinated tree. It's just so expensive for decorations!
Its mostly anything goes,once we untangle the lights from last year of course
Anything goes on our tree – home made decorations, candy canes, orange slices, chocolates and lots of tinsel x
Pre kids we had a stylish colour co ordinated tree, since kids started nursery and school we have lots of hand made creations. It might not be magazine worthy, but it's cute and the kids love it!
We dont have any tree at the moment, but when we have one its reasonably colour coordinated (other than the few odd bits that the kids have made/make each year that normally dont match!) xx
anything goes, I buy whatever I fancy each year and add it to the collection.
I guess mine is fairly colour coordinated…I decorate mine with popcorn chains, chilli chains, little bunches of cinnamon sticks, pine cones, dried slices of orange and little spiced biscuits π
Definitely anything goes
Anything goes on our tree
We have plenty of lights and our children choose their favourite decorations to make it fun and cheerful.
Before I had my little boy, I was so anal about what went on the tree, everything had an exact place and it was all colour co-ordinated. But now we have anything and everything on it!
Colour co-ordinated
I always start off trying to colour coordinate but as the kids get involved- it turns into anything goes!
th children decorate it so def anything goes!
Colour coordinated – silver, white and black. Doesn't sound festive but it is very effective!
We have a silver, purple and pink theme! And then we have a gold reindeer that we hang as the centrepiece on the tree that represents my mum, so we have her with us in our own special way π
Oh, definitely anything goes!
Red and Gold with lots of Disney characters too.
I usually get a real, mini tree. But I also have a fake tree, which is anything goes green.
Anything goes sort of tree! We've had it over 21 years and inherited if off my dad so lost count of the amount of Christmas days it has seen x
colour co ordinated usually, but this year we are having a change..
Anything goes! Mainly because we have a mix of old decorations and new π
I usually decorate the top and the kids decorate the rest because they can't reach – so co-ordinated at the top and anything goes for the rest.
I try to keep it gold, red, yellow and blue, but with the kids anything goes!!
Colour co-ordinated – all gold
green tree with lots of multi coloured baubles

Ours is an anything goes tree! I'm hoping to make some nice felt decs this year to add to it!
We try a theme but then other things get thrown on so no it just fills with all sorts to be fair
Ours is always an anything goes tree, its made of traditions passed through the family over approx 40 years. Its a mish mash of everything but always means something xx
Its always 'meant' to be colour coordinated but then the grandkids add a bit and a bit and a bit more…

Anything goes with children decorating the tree
My tree is co-ordinated purple and green and lots of old family heirloom decorations so it’s a great mix of modern and traditional.
Mine is coordinated with my living room colours!
I have a 'main' colour scheme which is gold, brown and bronze but I also have a few other little added bits in there like a brightly coloured bird, personalised baubles and stuff. I love traditional but I also like to make it personal π
I have a colour co coordinated tree and baubles with pictures of my children inside. I love Christmas! Would love to be considered x
I have an anything goes tree covered with an assortment of decorations
Ours is a bit of both, it has red and gold tinsel and baubles but we have been letting our children choose a ornament to hang on it a year in hope that by the time they are old enough to leave home we will just have a tree covered in memories instead π xx
Started off with red and gold…. but over the years we've accumulated various colours. Mainly items my daughter's created at nursery which give the tree personality and meaning.
*a little flushed with embarrassment* but we have a right mix on our old green tree – new lights (from bargain January sales) and the old fashioned 1970's lights, baubles that have been passed down from generations before and the odd temptation from the 1990's teamed up with all those handmade things from our son made. There is not a full 'set' of anything, its a complete mix of colours and contrasts but we love it because its our own special christmas tree! My man also has his 1970's tree he remembers buying from Woolworths and we pop that in the hallway as we have a glass door so people can see it when they come up to the door complete with pipe cleaner santas, 70's thin tinsel and those old fragile glass baubles!
mainly just silver
every ornament has a memory. I always wanted it to be colour coordinated but can never bring myself to get rid of the homemade things
My tree is red gold and green
I alternate, either traditional red, green and gold or ultra modern glass and silver.
an anything goes tree π
Used to be colour co-ordinated but since kids starting making decorations, it's anything goes.

I usually have a colour coordinated tree, but this year I've bought new decorations and it's anything goes for once! π
Mine is co-ordinated to my living room and is very neutral but with lots of gold/cream/glass decorations. If I change the decor, I can change the decs π
Mine is multi-coloured with decs collected over the years, made by the children and passed on from family members.
Red, green and gold, traditional colours with all the old family deccies
anything goes!
Anything goes – a mix of baubles collected over the years π
An anything goes tree! I just like anything shiny π
Great prize
Would love to colour co-ordinate but funds are stretched!
We choose one new tree decoration a year. We try to pick something that represents the year in some way for us. It makes putting up the tree fun as we guess the year.
anything goes tree organised chaos!
starts off coordinated then once the kids start it is anything goes!
We have a tree made up of pur memories. Every year since I was small I had a tree ornament at Christmas. Then my hubby would buy me one and I would get him one. Now I get the children one. I can go around the whole 6ft tree and tell you the story of each item.
Ours is an anything goes tree – colour themed is far too organized for me
Anything goes tree
Colour co-ordinated
Colour Coordinated. My Tree is white with silver shiny baubles. My 6ft white Christmas tree went yellow! I could only afford a 2ft tree last year so I put it on a table to make it taller xxx

complete mish mash and all things that hold memories
