Do you have a theme tree or decorations?  

My theme is all vintage items this year. I did snowmen last year and loved it. I got a white Christmas tree and shaped it into 3 round sections (a snowman) and put a top hat on it for a tree top. I'm not as crazy about the vintage them this year but it isa nice change. Have a great Holiday!

My house, both inde and out, are not themed in the least. Other than icicle type lights mostly outdoors on the eaves. My tree has old ornaments my mom made as well as newer ones bought at stores etc. I have never really had a set theme for the Holidays and never will more than likely. I just decorate and light the place up in and out is all.

HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Every year, my family seems to have a color theme. One year, we did red. One year, we did blue. Last year, we had a vintage theme with REAL vintage ornaments. As far as this year, I have no clue what we're going to do.

I am going to have Topiary this year. It is going to be made from wool balls and some ornaments. I am not sure what color yet, I will work on it after December 6th...

No I don't have a theme tree or anything like that. I have only done a certain color once, blue ornaments and lights. When my first grandchild was born I bought her an ornament for the tree. Now I have 5 grandchildren and have bought an ornament for each of them each year.

oh that is so wonderful.we donot celebrate on such a grand scale but then i love decorations and this idea of theme tree sounds excellent.

No I have no theme to mine. We get two new oriments a year now it is down to one. But we have a lot of mismatched ones as we remember when we got them and have a good laugh when we put them all on the tree. It is a very fun time for me and my son and now we have our roommate and his son. We will get it done sometime this coming week from what I have been told. I hope you have a great time doing your tree. Your friend onlydia

Hi Jill, I have friends who colour co-ordinate everything, so that if they have silver, lilac and pink baubbles on the tree, the tinsel and the wrapping paper for the presents are in this colour, me, mine is a wonderful mis-mash of colour, each year we buy something new for the tree but I have ornaments on there from when the girls were little that were made or bought from their school fayres to ones my mum left behind when she emigrated and candy canes that are so old we wouldn't dream of trying to eat. There are all sorts of colours, all sorts of shapes and all sorts of sizes of decoration too and I am sure our angel at the top of a fairy really but we love it, snowmen, santas, angels, fairies, trains, bells, even an old necklace one of the girls no longer wears is draped on it LOL. Unlike the guy you know I only have the one tree also. Huggles. Ellie :D

The last few years I have put up a 4 foot artificial tree. It is green and prelit with white lights. I have some blue balls that have silver glittery snowflakes on them that I put on the tree. I also have a blue star. That is it. Nothing fancy.

For my table full of goodies up at the gas station I have a snowman theme going. I have snowmen place mats and snowmen plates and platters. The goodie bags that I got for the toffee popcorn also have snowmen on them.

Last year we did a blue and silver Christmas tree. It looked beautiful! The problem is money. To change themes each year, you have to buy all new decorations and lights and garland. Themed tree's are gorgeous, but can be costly! I'm also a sucker for traditions. I want to start this year with a set of lights and decorations I can add too each year. My parents did that. They have decorations on the tree that they've had for years. I think it's really sweet and sentimental. Each year you look at all those decorations and think about the memories that come with them.
