Jack is so fasinated by our tree i decided to do some crafts with him, weve made snowflakes and decorations, Anyway, i had £5 in my pocket when we ventured to asda through boredom.

Tacky silver tree £3, multi coloured lights £1, red tinsel 70p, left over baubles free, seeing your two year old work to complete a project and applaud it daily, PRICELESS!

haha yes audrey, i was ripping of the mastercard advert!

how bigs the tree jo? maybe they saw you coming?

ours is a 3.5ft! for £3 i was well chuffed and there was like 6 colours to choose from, he picked black but i hid them and let him choose again! 

I love the tacky tree rach, It makes me think of when i was little and everyone had the foil stuff hung everywhere and bright multicoloured trees!

He just loves it soooo much, he races me in the morning and sayes jack treee?? and i let him switch it on!

He looks so cute with his tree! 

I left my husband and the oldest 2 to decorate ours this year, looks a bit of a mess to me with the wires for the lights visible and tinsel falling off but they are soo pleased with themselves I daren't sort it out!
