If you signed up or will be signing up for the "Christmas Ornament Exchange" please post here how you decorate for the holidays!!!! For instance, I have 2 trees, one is all Santas and the other one is everything else. Ornaments that I have received or bought myself. Ones my kids made while in school and now ones my grandkids make. I decorate my house with mostly all Santas and of course the Nativity I have put out since our first Christmas together(43 years now). So if you decorate in all purple or an array of colors lets us know, this way when the girl who gets your name has an idea what to buy for you!
again girls have fun with this, don't stress, its suppose to be fun shopping for your girl's Christmas ornament! Any questions, please pm me. Happy Holidays to all......scrapgram

I love Christmas. We have one tree and I vary the ornaments year to year since we have a cat who likes to play with the ornaments. I have ornaments that my boys made when they were in school (one is now 29, our other son 23). I get a lot of Hallmark ornaments that include Snoopy, family, cats, and nurses. I also like to decorate with Santas, angels, things that say "Believe", I am really not fussy. I am excited to be involved in the ornament exchange and look forward to the ornament I will receive since I love surprises.

Christmas has always been special time for me. I am so greatful for the season and the real reason.
In saying that, I enjoy Santa. The Old World santas. My tree is full of old world Santas. I have then all over the house at Christmas time.
I think they are part of my Romantic side. LOL![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/smile_wink_a_16.png)

I love everything about Christmas! We have one tree - mostly burgandy and gold decorations, but there are special ornaments that aren't that color. I love vintage Christmas items. We decorate with the Nativity scene on the mantle, along with various other decorations through the house. I'm excited about the Christmas ornament exchange this year!

We usually put up two trees, one themed, and one is the family tree. All of the special handmade ornaments, and sentimental ones go on the family tree by the fireplace. (yes..I have a fireplace in Florida..it does get cold here believe it or not
)
Last year the more dressy tree had all my snowmen ornaments, and white & gold.
I love snowmen even though I have only seen snow once.
Also Micky & Minnie lodge theme ornaments.
Anything with a lodge theme is great. I love bears & moose too.
I'm pretty easy. I like most anything!
We decorate like crazy..my husband does the yard up like in the movie Christmas vacation.
This will be fun!
Thanks!

We put up several trees all through the house. Some have themes and others don't. We have dance trees, Nutcracker trees, Disney, and my favorite.....a Star Trek tree. Christmas is such a wonderful time that I try to go all out.

My tree starting out blue and silver and ornaments with special meaning were added over time. We do not have any decorations or ornaments with religious signifigance such as anything nativity related or angels.
I love santas, animals, vintage, snowflakes, sparkly, nutcrackers...that's all I can think of right now.
It is fun to read what everybody else does!

I go all out for Christmas. My main tree is in the living room and is a real tree done in all red, white and blue ornaments all patriotic type ornaments and ribbon with red, white and blue lights. I do a small nautical tree in the family room, and a coca-cola tree in the "coke room". I have christmas everywhere in my house and have a large snow village dept 56 collection that takes 2 days to put up. I also have a large collection of red, white and blue snowmen and santas throughout the house.

We have a ton of disney ornaments! Love disney!! I also have a few precious moment ornaments as well. We also use alot of the kids work from school. The kids do help us decorate the tree...so kid friendly items are a must! My husband has been trying to take over the tree for years with Star Wars ornaments..I let him have a little section up out of the way for those...LOL!

I love Santas and snowmen and anything chrystally or sparkly!! I also have a sense of humor about my tree, so anything funny is good too.
I used to be a "celebrity cherry", but now I'm in re-hab...... Holy Carp!
I have 3 trees...The big one I decorate in all red bows! The medium one I decorate in everything...like ornaments my dd made or that people have bought me, and some my mom used to put on our tree when we were kids! The small one is my dd's tree and it is pink! I love decorating that one with shinny crystal like things! Besides that my theme around the house is snowmen.

Before moving in with BF I "overdecorated" for Christmas! There wasn't a place in my livingroom that didn't have some type of Christmas decoration.
I had to scale down for BF's sake (before me, he didn't even decorate at Christmas)... So mainly, all I have now is a beautiful tree with a mish-mash of ornaments. Some bought, some handmade, some that aren't even Christmas related (have the Star Ship Enterprise with the blinking light and a Cowboys blinking football LOL). I do have thing for Santas, so there are quite a few of those on the tree.![Happy :-)](./images/smilies/smile_16.png)

We have two trees. The main tree is white and gold. Almost all of the ornaments are white and gold. I use white lights and gold tinsel. It takes two days just to put this tree up. The other tree is in my boys room and consists of all the homemade, schoolmade and general ornaments that they want to put in on it.
I love snowmen and I collect snowglobes. Most of the rest of the house has snowmen in blues and whites.
We have a main nativity set in the living room and I have an all white ceramic nativity in the dining room.

Over the last few years, we didn't do a lot of decorating, but, this year it will all change! Now we have a grandchild, and this will be her 1st year of celebrating Christmas. She was only 2 weeks old last year, and 6 weeks early!
We will use all the reds, greens, and golds we can find, and any type ornament that catches a child's eye will be on our tree. We want to start a 'collection' of sort for her, but haven't quite made up our minds yet on what theme we will use. But anything pretty will definitely catch her eye. I'm a Santa person, so I have a lot of different style Santas. It will be so much fun and I think, easy, this year. I'm so looking forward to it for the first time in a while!

We totally dig an "old-fashion" Christmas! And antique (faux or original) ornaments are the main attractions on our tree :) We've been collecting for years and have found (or received) some incredible pieces!
I love snowmen! I have a bunch of the S'mores ornaments- I think they're so cute! I also love the old world Santas and anything patriotic.
I am so excited to decorate this year because Quinn will be more into it. It should be fun!

I have 2 skinny topiaries that I turned into trees. One is for my hockey ornaments and the other is for everything else LOL! Anything goes, but I especially love the S'mores and anything hockey!
I also try to put up my Christmas Village. It's hard to find a spot for it at times, but I put out at least a couple pieces.

I love christmas and decorating for it. We set up 8 trees and each one has different themes. I love snowmen, santa, snowflakes and penguins. I always go with a theme for my dining room, last year was santa and this year it wil be penguins.
