It is indeed.
But to truly appreciate it, you have to see it in person. It's the biggest indoor mall tree I've ever seen. And quite dazzling lit!

Looks like I might have to consider taking a trip to Raleigh sometime to see it for myself!
 
I probably won't be able to post these all at once, but I have some free/prep time first block. Here is Christmas Presence. It's a seasonal Christmas store in Place D'Orleans (an east end mall in Ottawa). The store has been active in the mall for about four years. Kim and I never really visit the mall, so we had no idea of its existence. A student actually informed me about it.

Strangely enough, the owner decided not to open the store in the mall last year and instead ran it out of her home. This year, however, the mall asked her to return because they felt it really helped complete the shopping/feel of the Christmas Season. Sound similar to how Crabtree needs A Christmas To Remember, doesn't it? ...as long as there's space available, it's a must have!

A classy tree:

How about a Coca Cola Classic Polar Bear?

He looks perfect under a tree, doesn't he? I miss these commercials.
 
Lots of "DIY" advent calendars out now. This one only has 21 days?

The lighting was't beneficial for my camera:

These photos... Wow. I'd seen the one on the right before. The other two are incredible as well. I don't know which I would prefer in my house? How about all three?!:

Kim is becoming obsessed with Christmas glasses, plates, etc. I honestly think it's the biggest reason why she wants our own house:

Snow globes... Still a favourite of mine:

Who better than to purchase a tree from than St. Nick himself?:

A cozy Christmas setting. I saw a few people sitting beside the tree for photos. Perhaps Seasonal profile pictures are on their mind?:

Kim purchased small serving plates similar to these... I think they had different messages though:

If you ask me, Santa would enjoy eating cookies off any plate:

How about an upside unicorn tree?:

Hudson's Bay has put up their in store decorations... I still haven't seen the in-store trees that usually accompany the overhanging garland:

That is all. The sights and marvellous. I've said it before, but I'm super excited to have these sights joined by the sounds of Christmas music. Soon enough!
 
The decorative annual Lennox holiday items are now available at Macy's!
(I like their designs much better than Spode.)

My friend has been giving me a Lenox ornament every year for the last couple years. Love them! ♥
 
Hey, it's complete!
(And as Crocodile Dundee would have said, "That's a tree!")
It stands about 40 feet tall and stretches well above the second level as you can see in the photo.
The tree is brand new this year as are the other Crabtree decorations. It is well located at center court between the two columns and is right outside where "A Christmas To Remember" will be opening, shortly!

People were captivated by the tree and were taking photos of their kids in front of it so I had to wait quite a while to get this photo free of bystanders!
Stunning!!!!! ♥ ♥ ♥
 
The O-H looks like it needs an I-O to go with it. Ha ha ha! ;)
Awesome photo's!!! Looks like a great place to shop!
