Lost, no I didn't get that one so much but me tacky? THAT I get! A minimalist I am not! Especially during holiday seasons! Bring on the glitter Ma, pass me that extra set of lights Pa and get outta my way!
Well, according to the quiz, I'm a traditional Christmas tree. :) However, we just purchased enough lights to illuminate Seattle and surrounds, along with a Charlie Brown and Snoopy blow up decoration (sounds tawdry, doesn't it?!)--to go with the blow up Santa and the light-up polar bear. We'd be even more tacky...er...festive if it weren't for the vandals who came last year and kicked in our angel, moose, and deer. We refuse to be bitter, but it is a shame. Still...I say, as long as our hearts are in the right place, what's too much glitter?
And I was just catching up with you a bit...yay for It's a Wonderful Life!
I fell in love with that movie one of the first times they showed it on TV...before it became almost overdone every year. It completely moved me...and it's not only one of my favorite Christmas movies, but one of my all-time favorite movies ever!
And I just saw on your comment tonight that you were watching those same Andy Hardy movies on Friday...you are truly a gal after my own heart, Susie! :)
I love your new Christmas look- so pretty...(and I don't think it's tacky one bit!) ;)
The test said I was a Minimal Tree~to quote "You're not a total Scrooge, but you feel no need to go overboard at Christmas. Less is more, and your Christmas reflects refined quality"
I don't know if this is true because, I've kinda gone overboard this year...lol...for me anyway!
I'm a traditional tree, and that sounds about right. I love real trees and dread the day I'll have to break down and get a fake one. Even if they do look pretty nice!
Ah Susie...it's a blast being tacky! Me and my red sweater present...not a thing wrong with it! The lights are so beautiful, the more the better...lots of glitter, too!
LOL! I took that test and I am the cranberry and popcorn tree....well maybe 15 years ago, but I have progressed....havn't I? I thought I did.........hmmmm maybe I didn't lol Penny
LOL! I took the quiz and I am tacky too! I do so strive to be elegant and tasteful, but it doesn't turn out that way. Guess I'll just have to throw tinsel to the wind and embrace my tackiness! lol Amanda (aka Cottage Contessa)
I am a tree full of roses and victorian decorations. I will go visit your friend and find out a little about her corner of the wotld. Have a good Monday and be back soon..............Sharon K
Now, I'm with you on this decorating business. Nearly all the boxes in the attic are ... Christmas stuff. Yep, have to use it all.
But as for my community ... brace yourself. I'll soon be posting photos of "Christmas Tacky".
They hire people with giant ladders and they cover everything from the rooftops to the ground, including all trees and bright lights that flash and move around.
Is it a competition to see who has the largest light bill? People drive for miles to see these displays.
I honestly drive out of my way to avoid being blinded.
Now, I'll admit, some are really pretty ... like mine.

I think that test is screwy, because it said I was bright and tacky too! Never mind! Glad you are back on line.
God bless.
