It's That Time of Year again...

Post by VforVIBE »

Time for everyone to skip decorating for Thanksgiving and go right for Christmas, and here in Florida, we are no exception...Designed and painted by yours truly. *cough*

I looks great, however, I feel you should not start decorating for Christmas until after Thanksgiving is over. I understand doing it for retail stores, but personally, I do not listen to Christmas music, or decorate my house until after Thanksgiving (with the exception of Christmas lights...I put those up on the outside of my house while it is still warm enough outside to feel my fingers, but they are not turned on until after turkey day).

Wow, you painted that? It looks like an actual department store. What a realistic painting! Norman Rockwell has nothing on you.
