If you have a Xmas tree, where do you put it?

I'm trying to find a spot for our Christmas tree and I'm having a hard time.  I think we might have to move a chair from our living room to the basement temporarily to make room.  I'm too afraid to put it too close to the fireplace or the baseboard heat.

    Ours is in front of the window in our TV room. We have to move the furniture around just a little. It's probably only about 5 feet from the fireplace. We put it in the same spot every year and haven't had a problem, but it's fake so there are no falling needles to worry about.

    Living room. We usually have to rearrange some furniture, but we like to have it lit in our view while watching Christmas movies :)

    Living room.  We have to move the couch a little bit and a potted tree.  I love how cozy it feels with all the other lights off and just thre tree lights on.

    Ours is in the corner of our living room. We had to get a skinny tree though because its next to the sliding glass door. It's also next to the TV. I love having a tree.

    In the living room, in front of the sliding glass door. The door goes to a balcony that we never use.

    Ours is in our living room.  It will probably end up in the corner and in front of a window.  We just got it out last night so we will make our final arrangements tonight!

    We have a big stone fireplace with inset areas on the side of the stone work.  So we put the tree in one of those insets- b/c its perfect- its in the corner, the dogs won't knock it over, and it fits perfectly.

    Only thing is you can't see it from the outside b/c where its located and we dont put up lights outside- so our house looks very unchristmasy when you drive by it.  

    We've tried it in front of the front room window one year, but the dogs like to look out that window and actually now their dog bed is there - so to avoid it being knocked over- that spot is not a good idea.  it did look pretty from the street there though. 

    ETA: oh yeah, it's in the living room-
