I have silver and dark red.You're not odd:) I hate the traditional loud red and bright green and opted for a more subdued classy look instead.it goes better with the decor of my home.

My theme is blue/silver/white because the decor of my home is blue/brown so everything is matchy-matchy!! I even match the wrapping paper to the tree in the same color scheme. I don't know why I try to look like I live in a magazine but I do. Maybe it's a sickness!

My theme this year will be angels! All my ornaments are different kinds of angels - dog angels, cat angels, ballerina angels etc. I finish off my tree with purple, silver and white glittery icicles. Can you tell I love Christmas? LOL

Blue and silver or brown and silver.
The red and green is predicatable and some of that older stuff is a hit with my husband. At times I just want to hit my husband because his taste borders on the 'tacky' end of the spectrum. Not to mention he is somewhat colourblind!

But I am not a Christmas Nazi. I give in to his foibles. One thing I do is use small stuffed toys that belong to my kids and grand daughter and even me and put them under the tree.

This year GD is 3 going on 4 and will be helping us with decorating the 'decoration room Grandma." This is what happens when you move your TV to the family room and suddenly your living room needs decorating and GD takes over.

But if anyone flies over our place after Thanksgiving, we are the house that has the Christmas theme called "Las Vegas Brothel meets The Griswolds." Sigh!

I had always done a blue and silver tree...wouldn't you know that I would end up marrying a Dallas Cowboys fan? As the kids get older and they collect their own decorations from school/family/friends, our tree isn't really a specific color any longer. I do buy new wrapping paper every year to wrap the "Santa" presents in (as those don't get wrapped in the same stuff that mom and dad wrap presents in). I also have a small tree in the kitchen...we call it our holiday tree and only call it that because we decorate it according to the holiday or time of year. (red, white and blue with flags for 4th of July; spiders and creepy things for Halloween, etc) I also collect Nutcrackers, and have recently been able to expand past Christmas Nutcrackers...I found two Halloween Nutcrackers this year!! WOO HOO!!!

I got very angry at my entire family a few years ago because noone wanted to help me put up our tree. It was a pre-lit tree that was insanely gorgeous but took a while to put up and take down because it had the large bulbs built in as well as the little lights. All white lights and you had to take out the large bulbs and put them back in every year. Anyway, noone wanted to help me but they sure wanted presents so I said forget it and I called a lady I knew that had several children and her husband had left her and asked if she wanted my tree and I gave it away! I then purchased a 4 foot pre-lit "tree in a pot" and sat it on an end-table and decorated it with red apples and gold pinecones. The family couldn't believe my "dinky" tree but that's what I've used ever since. I love it!

I do ivory, burgandy and gold and I have an obsession about lights... they MUST be only WHITE and NO BLINKING! I have no idea how this came about, but I just hate colored lights and to have them blink on top of that is enough to drive me batty! Oh and I HATE tinsel and garland... gag me! It's wierd because if't all the stuff that our tree was when I was a kid, colored, blinking, tinsel and garland everywhere... but for some reason I hate it now!

I used to work with a gal who did a different theme every year. Every year she'd go out and buy all new ornaments according to what her theme was.. she must have bins and bins of crap by now!

I do my/our tree by myself each year. If it were up to DH, we wouldn't have one. He'll go with me to pick one out & he'll put it up in the stand for me. That's where his participation ends. I've always done a variety on ours, just because that's what I have in ornaments. The last couple of years I've shopped the after-Christmas clearances & for this year I have a slew of white lights. I'd gotten a bunch of the colored lights after Christmas a few years back, but with all of them coming out in LED now, the colors are hard to look at. I prefer them more muted & classic. So, I'm going with white this year. I have a lot of glittery ornaments...a bit more formal than what I normally have. Most of them are light blue, silver, & lime green. It'll probably stick out like a sore thumb in the rest of my decor. I just don't really do formal/fancy. But, it'll be something different for a change.

Our tree drama is completely different.

The Skids never had a real tree before I came along. I've never had a fake one. Hubs prefers real too, so every year SS16 bitches about the real tree we get. Nothing specific, just that fake trees are "better." I don't understand why he even cares. 
There are easily half a dozen fake trees in storage here. I thought one of the benefits of a fake tree, was that you don't have to buy a new one every year. But apparently the ex did buy a new one, almost every year.

Then when we decorate the tree, SD15 asks repeatedly where this or that ornament is, that she remembers from her childhood. We tell her that her mom must've taken them to her house, and SD15 insists that's not the case, because she's never seen them there. Implying we are keeping those particular items from her. So we tell her to go look for herself where we store all the Christmas stuff, but she never does.

Then we go to put the tree topper on, and DH can't find his grandma's angel. We have a conversation about the fact it's been missing since his ex left, and he gets mad, as it appears she stole his heirloom tree topper. But he never does ask her about it, and next year he will discover again that it's gone, and we will have the same conversation about it, again.

Dont even get me started on selecting a Christmas movie to watch.
