I&#8217;m so proud of myself because I transplanted it into a nice big pot, all by myself. I made a fabric tree-apron (a tree-skirt would be trouble for watering a live plant!) and got a set of tiny rice-lights for it. We do have some ornaments but they are mostly too big and heavy for the tiny tannenbaum, so I hung them around the edge of the pot. I folded some mini-origami stars; they are more size-appropriate to actually hang on the tree. I placed the whole setup on a sturdy little low table, that has a shelf so that presents can actually go under the tree! Altogether the display is 52&#8243; high, so it has quite a presence in the corner of our living room. Now, if only it would snow outside &#8211; it&#8217;s white out there, but white with fog!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For our first stay-in-Eugene Christmas, I bought a little potted tree &#8211; a Dwarf Alberta Spruce, to be exact.
