Yes, that I'd definitely do if I had a garden or just a fir tree in a container. I'd decorate it and put lots of lights on and enjoy it all decked up every day! This is a wonderful classy postcard, Lorraine!

The spotlight page is on the Am3 page which you get to via clicking the "powered by Aminus3Photoblogs" hotlink, located just below the "small/large" thing on the lower right side of this page (just below)... In the middle of that page is the spotlight featured section, which I think is what Mandy was talking about.
