On asking Leader readers to share photos of their Christmas trees, I had high hopes of enough to create a nice picture feature.

What I actually got was in fact enough to fill an entire paper all by themselves.

After my initial elation (it's very exciting when you respond and it's much appreciated) the reality of knowing not everyone was going to make it hit me.

That someone took time to share something personal means a lot to me, so if yours isn't here, trust me, I wanted it to be.

But I've definitely had worse day than browsing through dozens upon dozens of images of fabulously decorated tress.

And what sights to behold, there really is a look to suit everyone these days, and I'll be honest, I absolutely love them all.

Whether it's traditional, colour themed, over the top or minimalist, there was something wondrous about each and everyone of them.

So if you are looking for inspiration for next year, check out our gallery above or to see every tree for yourself, visit the Leader Live Facebook page and search 'festive glory'.

And glorious they all are in deed.
