Around February or March of this past year, I found a 6 ft. slim-line tree at the Goodwill for $4! I was beyond excited. I have it up this year and it is perfect! I have all the ornaments on it that I have purchased for my children over the past 18 years plus an abundance of snowmen. I also have a 6 ft. alpine primitive-look tree with primitive ornaments on it in the same room, and there is still room to move around. Love it! I wish you much success in your tree-hunting endeavors. I hope you find exactly what you want!<br /><br />TinaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-66215254945583276542009-12-02T13:02:14.642-06:002009-12-02T13:02:14.642-06:00We have our share of aluminums and fake Charlie Br...We have our share of aluminums and fake Charlie Browns... but for our 'Main' tree I still hold out for a Live one - call me what you will, but while I can, I'm gonna.

And the branches fold up, so this year I actually pushed it against the wall, folding up the back branches, so we have even more room! I'm actually on the lookout for a white slimline. I don't know if they make them, but I NEED a white tree!★Carol★https://www.blogger.com/profile/18048131510779563893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-92050696066661911982009-12-02T06:46:52.371-06:002009-12-02T06:46:52.371-06:00Wow!

We're blog twins. :) <br /><br />Could you use the graphic part of that sack and make a pillow out of it? It's hard to tell how large it is from the photo, so maybe it would be one humongous pillow if you did that.<br /><br />Neat poinsettias!
