A few years ago we stopped buying real Christmas trees because I had to travel the day after Christmas. We found some plastic pine and decorated my mannequin with what we had around the house - this is a tradition here now...reuse and recycle and we all love it. On the 23th I went into town and I got the huge star for free and that makes her something special this year.
