Local Saturday - Oh Tannenbaum 2017

Now that it is December, it is time to bring a little Christmas spirit into this blog.

Every year, the Tioga County, New York, historical society (Owego, New York) features a fundraiser called Oh Tannenbaum - various individuals and groups donate decorated Christmas trees and people bid on them.  The winner gets the tree (or sometimes just the decorations).

Here are some of the trees featured in this year's bidding:

Patriotic.
Kitchen

White

Tabletop trees

If you would like to see more Christmas decorations later in the month, let me know in the comments.

Are you decorating for a holiday this month?

  5. I'm thinking winning the auction bid is the easy part. It's getting the trees home that's challenging.

    I just found your blog on the Write Tribe Facebook post - I currently live in Arkansas! Where did you live when you were here?
