Christmas Blossoms - 2011

[GingerMel]

It's about time you shared them..........! Kidding. Thanks for posting! Those decorations are very nice! Great stuff!!

I know! hah hah. Sorry for taking so long. I was uploading them to photobucket on the way home and then forgot about it! That's horrible. I know.

Tomorrows the DAY! I go to the Giant Christmas Store in Victoria!!

SOOOOO....any photos?

I use photobucket. Upload my pictures and then it gives me a direct link that I use. Have you tried that?

That's what I do too!

I finally had a chance to get out with a camera, too:

Above is Macy's in the Oglethorpe Mall in Savannah, GA

And the above picture was at the Bass Pro Shop in the Savannah Mall.

Okay, So Saturday I had the privilege to visit "The Christmas Village". Here are some photos DB snuck (hehehe)

Sorry theyre a bit blurry, we're trying to not get caught hahaha
These pictures also do not do the store justice, it was 3 stories high... and had stuff EVERYWHERE

I'm really pleased with the participation and photos so far this year.
Keep it up, Guys!

 

[GingerMel]

Thanks guys! Those are awesome.

I'm really enjoying all the pictures!

That's the whole idea -- to spread Christmas joy and build anticipation of the Season!

I have a feeling this thread will become very busy a week from today. It will be exciting to say farewell to Halloween and hello to the Christmas Decor!

You're welcome. Its pretty easy and if you need ANY help just let me know!
I didn't think it was possible but every Christmas I seem to get more and more excited!

 

[GingerMel]

I'm right there with you...growing more and more excited each year. This year the anticipation of Christmas is even usurping my love of Halloween, which has NEVER happened to me before. I'm like THE Halloween person among all my friends. Now, sadly, I can't wait to move all the Halloween stuff out and put up Christmas stuff.

It's the power of the Christmas Season, my Friend.
You can't fight it!


Took this one at the State Fair last weekend.
There is always a Christmas section in Dorton Arena.

I hurried out to Crabtree Valley last Sunday morning to snap photos but alas, the decorations were not plugged in! They just don't look the same unlit.
Will try again this weekend.

I agree, Crown. I am excited to see the lit up very soon! Obviously, I am also anticipating the Rideau Centre, St. Laurent Centre and Bayshore Mall to be decorated and lit for the Season, too. I think next weekend will be the perfect date to possibly photograph at least one of the three!

Beautiful. Thank you for sharing! I love seeing Christmas Blossoms photos from all over the world.

It's really starting to get Christmassy around here!

 

[Crown 84]

Well, Crabtree Valley's main mall decorations were still unlit this past weekend but I took some other random photos around the mall for your enjoyment.

1) and 2)
Garland and wreath on an upper level rail.

3) Long-time readers of my posts know I have a weak spot for decorated iron rails and street lamps!

4) Crabtree's main tree. It's about 25 feet tall.

5) Another, smaller tree nearby.

6) Ceiling decoration down one of the wings.

More to come!
