My brother loves to decorate for holidays and the different seasons. He has already decorated for Fall even though it's not here yet according to our temps. I have included a picture of our fireplace. The lighting isn't all that great. In front of the fireplace, there are a boy and girl scarecrow with black crows by their feet. On the mantle, he has Fall flowers and candles along with both a male and female Indian. This is just one area he has decorated. I thought he did a great job. Do you decorate for the holidays and seasons?

Your brother has done an excellent job, he's very creative. The only time I decorate is Christmas.

I'm going to do Christmas this year in honor of mom. I wonder what those kitties will think of a live tree, should be interesting.

@jaboUK I think he is creative too. I wish I had that gene...lol. If it was up to me, I would only decorate for Christmas too.

@rebelann Oh my, a Christmas tree and kitties. I hope you won't have to be pulling them out of the tree or worse, they don't knock the tree over.

I never decorated for the seasons either but since I moved in with my brother, I do enjoy looking at the decorations.

I think that looks great. I decorate for the autumn season, I always have my stuff up just in time for Labour Day weekend. I've got scarecrows, and a few other pieces.

Thanks! I do enjoy when he decorates but he does it all himself. If it was up to me, I would only decorate for Christmas.

Thank you! I really have enjoyed it so far. I'm sure he will go a little crazy for Halloween if he can afford it.

I can't wait for him to decorate for Christmas. He usually does that the day after Thanksgiving.

Nice job, I like what he's done I think my furbabies would be confused if I started to do that but I do plan on buying a live cut tree for Christmas just to see what they’d do with it. I’m not going to decorate it though, I just want to have fresh pine in the house for a change.

I've never had a live tree in here so this will be a first and I hope it makes it smell so much better @LCaldwell

@rebelann I am curious to see how our two kittens do this year. We had a new kitten last year and she would not stay out of the tree.

My only contribution was to mentioned where he could put the word 'Boo'. I'm surprised he took my advice.

Now those decorations are classy and elegant! I don't decorate. Most look so gaudy.

Thanks! I agree with you on the gaudy part. We try to get decorations that are a little more classy. I will have to post pictures of our Christmas tree. It's always so beautiful.

The only holiday/season he doesn't decorate for is Valentine's day. Everything else, he really gets into decorating for.

I love decorating for the holidays. I usually go all out for Halloween, and turn our house and yard into all things Halloween. I decorate for Christmas also, but don't go as crazy as I do for Halloween. Several years ago, I did an amazing patriotic decoration of the house for the Fourth of July.

My brother's favorite holiday for decorating is Halloween. He had so many wonderful decorations when we lived in Vegas but he sold everything when we moved closer to home. He is trying to build up his collection again and I'm curious to see what he buys this year. I would love to see your house for Halloween. You should post pictures when the times comes.

I used to do all of that in a big way. Now that I've moved into my new place, I'm considering beginning to do it again. I think it would be so cheerful!

That's very cute. I like the simplicity. We only do the decoration for one season and that is Christmas. I love decorating. I am looking for new cool designs that we can do for our old sickly Christmas tree.

We like for our decorations to be simple also except when it comes to Halloween. My brother likes to go all out for that holiday.
