I apologise in advance for mentioning the C word – but Christmas really is approaching fast! It’s November already, and with 4 children of my own to buy for, plus family and friends, a Christmas meal to plan, decorations to organise and the small matter of a house move between now and then – I am trying to get on top of Christmas now!
One of the things that really makes a home feel festive is a Christmas tree. I have to admit that for the last few years we have always had an artificial tree, but growing up the smell of a real pine tree always filled the family home, and I am very tempted to get a real tree this year. Pines and Needles have a Christmas tree delivery service of really beautiful trees. They are much fuller and greener than those you see in your local garden centre or market, and they are no-drop too, which is a huge bonus, especially if you have little children or pets.
They also offer fantastic customer service – they guarantee that you will receive a fresh tree and if you are not completely satisfied simply let them know on the day and they will replace it. Every Pines and Needles tree is delivered as fresh as it can be with new stock being added every seven days and each tree hand picked for the customer. If you’re short of time you can even choose a decorated tree – your Christmas tree will arrive with your choice of lights and decorations and the delivery team will set everything up for you, and can even remove and recycle your tree after the festive season for you – how’s that for service?!
I have never come across quite such a comprehensive service and range. There is something for all households and all budgets, from mini trees and wreaths to 12ft trees – and if you live in the Inner London zone, you can even opt for kilted delivery drivers to visit you. I almost wish I lived in Inner London right now…
I have teamed up with Pines and Needles to give away a beautiful 6ft Christmas tree with water holding stand to one lucky reader. If you would like your very own real Christmas tree delivered to your door this year, simply enter on the Rafflecopter form below. Good luck!

I love the look of silver and blue, but my tree is usually a hodge podge of colors. This is because I have so many ornaments made/ given to me over the years I don’t want to leave off.
This year we’ve gone for bronze and red! 🙂 We have loads of wee Robins that my four little ones have made, it looks lovely! x
We use red and gold 🙂
Red and Green to make it extra, extra Christmassy. Lots of baubles x

Red and silver
Gold and red to match the decor in the front room and black and white in the dining room
We had a real tree for the first time last year, we loved it. After Christmas, We tried to keep it alive as it had roots and we were quite upset when it died! I go through phases of colour choice and had a few years of purple/silver, but last year went to red/gold.
We don’t have a colour scheme for the tree…our decorations are a motley collection of old and new, lots of things the kids have made and a mass of lights…strangely it always looks pretty good!
traditional gold, red, white 🙂
Reds and golds, and anything my little ones have made 🙂
