    I don't put up a tree due to the kitties but MOSTLY due to putting up five trees in three stores, I'm pretty much done! I can attest to the fishing wire idea. That's how we secure tree's and wreaths at the store. Each thread holds about 30 lbs. I've never had any "cutting" issue as it's not that sharp. I do take out my breakable ornaments and hang them with ribbon across my sliding glass door at various levels. That's my decor.
    Regarding pictures, come to my store and use our trees as background! LOL! Lord knows you wouldn't be the first!

    I was actually in your store last night! Beautiful trees!!
    But I couldn't bring the "kids" with me to take pictures. LOL
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I've given up putting up a Christmas tree. I had a very pretty artificial one and a small one as well. I tried putting up the small one and Storm tried to eat it. He even tried to eat my reindeer that was made out of the same stuff so I gave up. I'm sure that Alani & Blaze would try to climb a tree if I tried again. I think the only tree I can put up is a picture of one on my refrigerator.LOL Good luck with yours.

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    Well, the tree is up!! It is anchored to the wall and I put only decorations that cannot shatter if they hit the hardwood floors. I am not very pleased with how it looks, but Bruce said it looks good. And his mom stopped by and liked it (of course she would say she did even if it was a Charlie Brown tree ).
    I will post pictures later.
    Oh! So far there hasn't been a kitty climber. They've both been around chewing on the branches. And Jax found the fishing line and tried pulling on it with his teeth. So we have to move the obstacle he used to get to it.
    So far so good, but that doesn't mean we're safe! LOL
