The Pair Tree - everything was hung in pairs (but just one pair of scissors hee hee)
Trigonom-e-tree - card shapes decorated by the little ones at nursery
Local Dignitrees - this was the Parish Councils entry with plenty of photos
Knitivitry - this lady knits such gorgeous little ornaments every year
As you know I stitch ornaments for my tree every year and a few of my stitching friends very kindly send ornaments too. You can see them in my recent posts - thanks everyone.
This year my tree was Winter Wonderland and I really am delighted in how it looked amongst all the other amazing trees in church with lights everywhere. The smell in church is amazing as all 60 trees are real - all in all a wondrous Christmas sight.

They all look fabulous Clare
A great selection of trees, Clare. I wish our church did something like this.
The church looks magnificent, so bright and colourful. Lots of great ideas again this year.
Tea Tree - not the oil but teacups and teapots?
I love Julie's idea! The trees look so beautiful Clare. Thanks for sharing your photos.
Thanks everyone - there is always a Tea Tree full of cups, teabags, spoons, little sugar packets - very clever. It is done by the village social group. It is getting harder and harder to think of new themes as the festival has been going over 8 years - the dentist always does 'dentistry' full of mini toothbrushes, toothpaste tubes and cut outs of teeth hee hee
Thanks for sharing the photos. Your tree does look beautiful!
I think it's a wonderful idea for a church festival and look forward to next year's theme.
