I'd love to have a color coordinated, themed tree every year...but no one else in my family likes that. So we have our big tree in the family room, with colored lights (that I have to put on so it's evenly lit) that we all decorate together. It's fun to hear the discussion about the ornaments and which ones the girls gravitate to each year. Hubs likes to read the newspaper I layer in between the ornaments to see what was going on the previous January when I packed it all up.
This year I'm back to having my own smaller tree in the dining room, which points out the front of the house so people can see it from the street. I do it all in white, red, silver and gold which matches the red walled dining room nicely. Oh and get my white lights on my tree since everyone else likes colored lights.
