My husband loves Christmas. So I let him decorate the tree the way he wants. Which is a lot of colorful lights and as gaudy as a Christmas tree can be. Makes him happy and I'm ok with that. I decorate our foyer with red and white.

Yeah I let my husband do the outside of our house which turns out the exact same way as your tree! Gaudy, colorful, just Christmas crap everywhere! If it were up to me, I would have him put up a simple strand of white lights around the house and maybe a few bushes with white lights only and a pretty wreath on the door. But, like you said, he loves Christmas and he loves decorating outside of our house so I feel like I have to give him his little thing, even though it makes outside of my house look like someone threw up Christmas all over my yard🤮

No theme, I guess just all the ornaments the kids made over the years, gifts from loved ones, etc. I used to want a stylized theme tree but the older I get the more I realize our mismatched tree is our family. Things from my mother in law and my dad who have passed. Baby's first Christmas, second grade homemade stuff. It's all good. I love looking at beautifully decorated trees like this video too. I will look for hours on you tube and Pinterest at stylized trees, but mine is not that, lol.

We just sold our house on Oct. 27th and all of my Holiday decorations are in a container. I’m so depressed about my limit of space and not having any of my ornaments. I think we’re going to have to have a tiny little tree in a corner. I just hope I can get in the spirit. This will be the first year we won’t be celebrating Christmas at our house with all the children and grandchildren. One of my daughters is hosting Thanksgiving at her house and I hope one of them will host Christmas. I’m so sad about it and regret selling our house. 😞🌲

Mine too. I’d love to see a video of how to pull an “heirloom/memory ornaments” tree together so it’s cohesive and intentional. I do have smaller themed trees in other rooms and in my barn. That one is pretty much all horse related items.

Its gorgeous, I usually fluff all my branches then let "settle" for 24 hours, come back and fluff again. Then I decorate. My kids just laugh at how precise I am with the whole process. It usually turns out nice. I too store my decor by color or theme, I alternate themes every year. I think this year will be my blue Christmas. Blue, white and silver.😘🇨🇦

The tree is beautiful! This year I'm switching things up. My livingroom tree will be gold and white, dining room tree will be silver and white. This is new for me, i normally do the traditional green and red. The basement tree will be traditional for my grandson son, childs tree.

Love the neutral theme...your tree looks amazing..and so happy to see a tree that is not heavily flocked... I am doing a woodsy theme...red buffalo check with lots of neutral decorations..

I’m an interior decorator and Christmas trees are my specialty. I think you did a great job. The tree collar was sure a good buy.😀

Red and clear lights with colorful elf’s. Red and green ornament. Grandkids love it.

It looks beautiful. I have never done a theme/colored tree. All of my decorations are from my kids when they were young. They either made them in school or my mom gave them in their stockings each year. Thank you for sharing!!!

loved this video, first year decorating I think I’m going red and gold !

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Fantastic video you really broke down the process well and guided us through every step. I needed that, now l really think I'll be able to elevate the look of my Christmas tree this year. I like to use a scandinavian pallet, red and white and lots of natural pieces, plenty of greenery. I like to use a few traditional decorations too, gingerbread men, candy canes, bells. Not too much of any one thing. I do have some picks too and now I know just where to put them on my tree for maximum effect. I've always wanted to use ribbon in my tree too, you make it look super easy, I'm definitely doing it this year.

Just now finding this video... fluffing the tree is so much fun for my kids. Probably their fave part. I "had" a 9ft tree. It wouldn't fit in our home. So we put it up in my parents home 2 years ago. My daughter's boyfriend is a welder. He was able to shorten the main stem of our tree and now it fits! Such a blessing!

I'm going with a similar design for my tree. Love your tree. It looks amazing! I'm going to try making a bow for the topper.

I’m using white, silver and red. Thanks for your tips especially for outing ornaments deep inside the branches to make the tree fuller.

We get new ornaments each year or make some. We only add on. We have ornaments from throughout the year that have so many memories with them. I think most are nature and crosses. I just change the picks and I LOVE the new tree skirts, they are so much easier to clean under tree and they just look so good. I love the beads and thank you for showing ribbon, I have tried in past but didn't like it just hanging. In the end I get tree ready and do the picks and garland and my kids even as teenagers look forward to putting ornaments on the tree. We play Christmas music or put on a favorite Christmas movie. I love that time in our busy life.

Absolutely stunning, my sitting room tree will be silver and royal blue this year and the dining room will be red and gold. The mantel garlands will match the trees.

Will start outside later this month before it gets any colder here in Scotland.

Video Request: A lot of people have variety or ornaments of different styles (including the sweet ones our kids make). Can you show how us how to make those trees look more pulled together? Ive helped a few friends with this and I always suggest a really CUTE ribbon to make a bow for the top of the tree and then run that ribbon through the tree (almost like a garland). Then , use some kind of "signature" ornament to repeat on the tree. Then, mix in all the the other ornaments with those "signature" ones. What do you suggest? Make us a VIDEO?!?!?!?!

Although your tree is very pretty, it doesn’t seem to have memories or favorite family ornaments on it. My theme is “family memories” year after year. Our tree has ornaments that are very old year after year. As we get a new one it usually has meaning or given to us by someone. We don’t do themes that have no meaning to anyone.

Mine is the same every year...white lights in the interior for depth then colored lights on the rest. Angel on the top my husbands grandmother got for us as newlyweds, 52 years ago. The ornaments are all we have accumulated from our years together and our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren!! Doing a crystal garland this year...

Your tree is beautiful. Usually I put up several trees but this year we are living with the in-laws so I am putting up a tree in our room with rich blues,cranberries and golds. Using a plaid with those colors for accent. Thx for all the inspiration.

We always go get our tree at the lot we used to cut it down. But we have some friends of ours that own a fruit stand we start out in the spring getting vegetables and then the summer we get fruit in October we get our pumpkins from them and our squashes and then in December we get our tree from them it’s such a great way to stay connected to them all. Around this time the town does a lighted parade and we always stand at the tree lot around the barrel fire and watch the parade

Moose is cute! Santa theme in the living room, red, green, gold traditional in the family room, candy/ cookies in the kitchen.

I decorate traditional using ornaments handmade and ones given as a gift no theme at all. I call it a memory tree or heirloom. Your tree was lovely. You were lucky...all the lights worked!!!!!

Red, white, and green for the main theme and in the bedrooms and bathrooms more of a frosty winter wonderland with icy blues, white, and pink with lots of sparkles 🙌

I love how your tree came out! I found putting the ribbon on first makes it easier to place all the other ornament and garland in the tucked in spaces. I also put in picks last to fill in blank spaces. It’s just easier for me with my 9 ft slim tree. But yours does come out just lovely!

Oh my goodness Liz....your tree is absolutely gorgeous! I love it! The colors that I am using is burgundy, silver, grey & white! My livingroom colors are grey & white.
