orange you glad it's almost christmas?

today i've put off my painting (i'm on an art every day kick) in order to tick some things off my to do list.  i've been slow and steady in my christmas prep for a day or two or three. this morning i put up my orange tree. it's artificial, not live.... so it was a matter of snap together and fluff the limbs .... but you might have figured that out already huh? i love the orangey goodness of it SO much that i hardly want to decorate it.... i think it is about perfect like this.... what are you doing to get ready for christmas? are you a traditionalist? or could your house rock a hot pink glitter star on an orange tree?
