A rainbow-coloured triumph!

A South Australian mum transformed her tree for Christmas to celebrate the ‘yes’ vote.

The Christmas tree – boldly decorated as a rainbow – has attracted over 6.1K ‘likes’ on the Kmart Mums Australia Facebook group.

Tammy Sims tries a new theme for her Christmas tree every year.

“It seemed appropriate in celebration of the yes vote,” she explained.

Tammy admits that she’s a “bit OCD” with her tree, and that it takes a while to decorate.

“I try my best not to put two of the same decorations next to each other and I tend to arrange them all quite close,” Tammy said.

She likes to shop around for her decorations, purchasing most of them from Kmart, Target, Myer, David Jones, Coles and Woolworths.

Her 10-year-old daughter helped her decorate the tree, and is “very proud of it”. Her 15-year-old daughter, however, isn’t quite as impressed.

“The eldest just finds it funny that we put so much thought and effort into it,” said Tammy.
