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.
