Bunniq Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 Snowmen!! I used to have my bedroom decorated with snowmen all year round when I was younger. Now they just come out at Christmas-time and they are everywhere!snowmen and then they stay up to the end of Feb.I collect little snowmen and I love snowglobes, and during the wintertime they are everywhere!
able Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 glass ..all glass though did mickey for a while, then snowmen then penguin
happysunshine28 Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 dont decorate in themes, last year we has a 2 or 3 foot tree, our cat tore up our big tree. This year will be the same, my kids dont really care about the tree anymore just the gifts under it, lol.
Gporter34 Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 I usually don't stick with just one thing, but I have snowmen everywhere. This year I am going to try to not buy anymore snowmen. But I will still use both the white tree and the green one. We also have the small trees in each of the kids' bedrooms and one in our room beside the fireplace. The outside of the house will be covered in lights...again.LOL
ebony0421 Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 The tree that goes in the living room is done in burgundy and gold with white lights and bows. There are Angels and Santas on there, as well as a Santa topper. The tree that goes in the family room is done in snowmen and snowwomen, candy canes, fake peppermint candy ornaments, white lights, a snowman skirt and a snowman topper. The little tree that sits on the kitchen counter has ornaments that the children made. The tree that goes in the dining room has gold ornaments and white lights only. Outside we use white lights only, reindeer, sleigh, an angel and a wreath.
Lvnlakers78 Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 My husband loves the M&M guys so we do an M&M Christmas tree it is very cute!!!
cleverbffool Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 The tree in the family room is mostly ornaments that the kids made, but the tree in the living room is more formal with bows and all the same colors usually red and gold. ~*~Jess~*~
gisellerol Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 no theme here I just pick up cute ornaments whenever i see them. next month im going to florida so I will definitely go to downtown disney to the christmas shop and pick up some new ornaments.
shaneslove Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 this year we get to pick a new theme since last year my dog ate ALL of my ornaments

tiggstt Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 I used to love Christmas, not just the holiday but the feeling in the air! My christmas would last from Thanksgiving until Little Christmas (one week into January). Then my ex put my littlest one's live in danger during christmas time and I almost lost her. Now we (my 2 girls and I) try to get away from home that time of year. This is the 3rd year in a row we'll be on a cruise ship for christmas.
Turtle Mommy Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 My favorite is "gingerbread". Men, houses and flavor!! Ditto!
f1rstclass Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Not really a theme kinda person...we enjoy just getting nice things and setting them around the house, not going for any type of theme or design, just what makes us happy!
oldandintheway Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 This year I'm planning on a "Grateful Dead" tree with GD ornaments, GD mini bears, purple balls as fillers and purple lights. We also might be doing multiple trees this year. I have too many ornaments, and I would like to display more of them, so multiple trees might be a good idea.
cactusmom Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 I like my tree to have an old fashioned victorian type 'feel' to it. I have a lot of homemade and hand painted stuff I have made, and a lot of lacey looking stuff. I also like my home to have a lot of deep red and green colors going on
misshayley Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 Right now we don't have a theme, but I have enough ornaments to do a Coca-Cola tree and a small care bear tree.
kbrady2 Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 Last year I did "Christmas has gone to the Dogs" I had dog bones on the tree, milkbones and rawhide. I had lots of dog ornaments, Doggie Jingle Bells playing on the speakers, A picture of the dogs in santa clothes above the mantle, dog bowls (new and clean) with people food in them for the Open house, and hanging outside was a wreath and garland with dog ornaments and bows with a sign saying "Fleas Navidad" on the wall.
meow62 Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 At our house, Christmas goes to the cats! Our tree is filled with cat ornaments, and we always add the new releases each year; if our ceilings were high enough, a 12-foot tree would probably hold all of them! One year I got really ambitious and put up 5 trees: 3 cat themed, 1 artic theme with polar bears, penguins, and snowmen, and 1 with assorted miniatures (don't think I'll tackle that again any time soon!). And you can't have a cat tree without the motion-activated caroling cats in a gift box, the singing cat wreath, the stuffed cats with Santa hats, cat stockings and stocking holders, etc. Meow-y Christmas everyone!
Hummingbird Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 I don't really have a theme, usualy ornaments my girls have made in school or girl scouts. I have purchased a couple of glass hummingbird ornaments I have found so I'll eventually make that the focus. I have a miniature tree that I decorate and put upstairs between the girls bed rooms that has an assortment of little ornaments you can tie onto packages.
NeepNeep Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 No theme here. Just an assortment of mostly handmade ornaments over the many years. This year I did some plastic canvas ornaments for our tree, and to give as gifts. Having some ornament sets to spare comes in handy if I need a last minute gift for someone.
smangham Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 Okay...now I KNOW what I'm going to do this year. I was at the Old Navy clearance sale today and found really cool black and white graphic designed paper for $2.50 a roll (regularly $5). I"m going to wrap all the presents in that paper...and use bright jewel colored bows and ribbons on them. Whadda you think? Does it even sound cute? I tend to like the dramatic.
jlr1996 Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 I have a total of 11 trees, all different themes or colors. 1. Boyds bears, 2. Americana, 3. Snowmen, 4. Nascar (for husband), 5.

I am envious of the Boyd's and Coca cola ones
minj Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Our theme is Disney. We've got an adorable Tinkerbell tree topper and a few sets of Disney ornaments. They are the one's that come in the storybook case. I've also got a lot of penguin stuff that I like to put out for the entire winter season.
Cecilliadb Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 I don't really have a theme but I like the european style I guess. I like to feel like I'm walking into my own little world back in time with embroiderd bows and all the trimmings.
holly2hottie Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Well since my name is Holly, That is my favorite theme. Holly berries and greens and reds.
