Where do you put your Christmas tree? In the window? In a corner? somewhere else?

In the window this year.

In our townhouse we really don't have many choices. We have a good size window in the front of the unit but it's in the kitchen area and that's no place for a tree. We actually put ours in the living room which is opposite the kitchen in the back of the unit so we have it in one of the windows by our slider door........of course no one outside sees it back there but it's the best spot for it. oh well, we work with what we have.

Is your concern that the tree is off kilter a bit? I think it's the angle of the photo.

But to answer your original question; this year we moved our main tree back to a location where it can be seen from more areas of the house. For the past few years I had it in the window but unless you actually went into the room, you really couldn't see it.

The windows in our home are not really visible from the roads, unless you are in our driveway so we always put the tree near the patio doors. We have not put up a tree since my mom died so it no longer is an issue but I do put my manger and cardinal white birch up in front of the family room window...if that counts!

Ours is in the same spot every year. It's in a corner of the living room but with the blinds open you can still see it lit up from the street.

We usually center our tree in the front living room window. We put it in a corner of the living room a few times.

Our house can't be seen from the road, and our living room faces the 18 acre pond we front on...so we put the tree in a corner by one of those windows. Maybe our neighbors across the pond can see the lights through the trees!

I thought so too until I saw this picture of a Christmas tree in the kitchen!

No tree, but I do have lights on a faux cedar spiral. It's in a corner, but you can see the lights from the street.

Our's has been in the same spot for years - in a corner of the living room. It's in front of one of the windows, so it is visible from the street. We live in a cul de sac, so not a lot of people see it except for the neighbors. We save the place of honor for the Nativity scene. It's on the mantel above the fire place in the family room.

BTW, love seeing pics of the trees! Keep them coming.

Is this tree real? I have been looking for an artificial tree like this for years. Where did you get it, please?

We have a slim line tree we put in the corner in the living room out of the way.

Our living room is on back of house so you can't see if from windows.

We have ours this year in a corner in our Living Room, near the windows, but not in front of. We did downsize our tree this year, and went with a Slim Line Tree.

It fits perfectly in the space and looks great.....Very happy with the SlimLine version.

Formal living room in front of house. Has 3 windows similar to posters pic. I like seeing the tree from the street.
