HOW many xmas tree ornaments?

SUMMARY: I have collected beyond my means to manage.
Source : December 24, 2025: a Facebook chat with a small group of people about our homes'  Christmas decor.

I have conceded defeat to almost everything. I did get out two table runners but the tablecloth and other runners and napkins and towels are still in boxes. 


I mostly emptied the largest box of ornaments, but it was weird because it was repacked before it was moved apparently by someone other than me so it wasn't all ornaments. I did empty another two smaller boxes – – meaning that there are still some ornaments left in there but I pulled out the ones that I most wanted. 


Three boxes of tree ornaments left that I haven't even started on and I think that's about it.


Trying something new this year: realizing that I have so many ornaments they will never all fit on this tree in particular and though I have a small artificial tree also, that's for small ornaments which I haven't put up yet, and I think I don't want to mess with the whole second regular tree this year--[deep breath]--Any ornament that can stand on its own, I have been putting them on my side table.




I have been halfheartedly attempting to make group them in related categories. 
First grouping is: taller ones to the left, shorter ones to the right (Mostly). After that, some examples:
  • A couple groups of dogs

    some Victorian houses, 

    some humorous ones, 

    all the camping gear, 

    and surely you recognize the crew on the far right side with the necessary bucket…


    i'm trying to do this post on my phone and the blogger tool that I'm using is not friendly – – or else the template I chose years ago is not friendly--to phone use so I'll have to re-edit this later


    larger, taller ones

    Smaller, shorter ones

    Some dogs

    Some more dogs

    Some Victorian house

    Camping gear (old-style)
    also notice Snoopy as the camping scout leader

    Some more humorous ones

    Not at all wicked! Plus bucket!
