Does anyone here put up and theme or specific color based tree?

I ask after having seen all the lavender holiday decorations this year.

Lilith,

Not here. That's a new one on me. An interesting development.

I know there have been 'fads' over the years for tanenbaum decorations. Some years back, apples were the choice for ornaments for decorating when only one form of ornament became the thing for some reason. Then there was peaches and little Christmas presents and lots of bows on the tree. A lot of people were hanging nothing but apples and red bows.

Even when I still put up a tree every year, it was purely German traditional, but I have a daughter-in-law that could fill me in on ANY trend being promoted at the mall. I understand "60's-70's Retro" is what you MUST have this year. The tiny twinkle lights are OUT! (especially the all white) (and surely don't consider the all white for outside decorating) (scrap the 'ice cycle' strings first). Get out your aluminum tree and put on the fat garland and egg size lights. The victorian style is REALLY gone. If you even remember it, your tree could burst into flames.
