Her son, almost two, is now also obsessed with The Grinch, just like his mother. The pair watch the film several times a day and he is in love with the festive theme.

Leteesha, from Victoria, Australia, said: “The theme was inspired by my love for my all-time favorite Christmas movie, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas.

“A movie that I made my five siblings watch over and over at Christmas from the age of 10 onwards, and that continued into adulthood, where, when I was in my own house with my husband, I started the tradition of watching it from 1 can be viewed every evening in November. to Christmas.

“But this year my almost two-year-old son is just as obsessed as I am, so I’ve gone from going to the show once a day to two to three times a day with him, and he is absolutely obsessed with our tree show. ”

It took five hours to set up the tree and then another three hours to decorate.

It has more than 100 individual decorations, 4 meters of balloons and a set of lights.

There is also a small hiding place underneath, so that the showpiece stands out even more.

Leteeshawho also has a 6-foot Christmas tree in another room, enjoys seeing people’s reactions to her design.

She said: “The response I got the first year we did it was incredible, so after that it became such a big thing.

“A few months after Christmas I would get messages saying ‘I can’t wait to see your Christmas tree this year’ or ‘Your Christmas tree is my favorite thing to see every year, I’m so excited’ and it gave me so much enthusiasm to continue.

“I’ve changed it in different ways every year to keep it new and fresh. It’s been a little hard this year with my two year old, but he’s been great, he just loves looking at it and going to the booth because he feels like he’s ‘playing’ in it.

“The traders are the funniest, their reactions when they walk through the house are the best.

“It’s just so unexpected. I have random people/followers message me in my city asking if they can come over and show it to their kids.

“It’s so funny.”
