Sounds lovely Elvira .........
I'm still 'hovering'..... it all depends on if the decorations I ordered online arrive on time (sigh) but most likely it'll be a Winter Wonderland theme :elf3:

My living room tree is blue and silver. The home office tree has the Nutcracker Suite theme on it.
Sometimes I add to it but just a few things here and there.
Here are a few of my doll ornaments that I will put on my Madame Alexander doll themed tree!
I'll post more photos tomorrow!
nice dolls! I especially like the ones in the second picture. I am looking forward to seeing the tree when it's all finished.
We never change the theme, it's the same every year, just a multi-coloured tree. <3
These are Hallmark ornaments. I have three different series: 4 Madame Alexander Little Women (porcelain) - complete series; 3 Madame Alexander Christmas Angels - complete series; and 21 of the Madame Alexander doll series - ongoing (I seem to have misplaced 5 of these and I am not happy). The ornaments are based upon actual dolls produced by Madame Alexander.
I have posted photos of the tree under a new thread "ornamentmaven's decorating efforts 2011"
I've had theme trees for years. In recent years I've stuck with these themes:
Foyer tree--White snowflakes and icicles
Guest bedroom--small tree with toy ornaments
Man Cave tree--reflects my husband's interests: West Virginia University sports and car racing-white lights with blue gold and red ribbon garlands
In the living room I rotate themes:
Handmade and nature ornaments with multicolored lights and cranberry garland
Red and white ornaments with red and white lights and white pearl garland
All of out traditional blown glass and other shiney ornaments with multicolored lights and red velvet ribbon garland
Once in the while I pull out all of our turquoise, chartreuse and purple ornaments and make a mod mid-century looking tree.
I also coordinate our coffee table decorations to each theme.
