Go to Fortunoff's they have the most beautiful theme trees, and a million ornaments, bows, lights etc.. I got engaged last december and we went to the cheesecake factory while we were waiting I made him take me to see the different trees...

Re: xmas tree decorations

the tree from the white house:

You can use white & silver balls, silver garland or silver pearl garland, white doves, white satin bows, white lights, make a white tree skirt, silver bells, and add white poinsettas, either artificial or real in or around the tree.

Swarvoski ornament (expensive but pretty)

The year we lost my Father my Mother didn't want to get a tree really. But knew we should so she said get a small one. So we got a smallish tree just put white lights, white bows, white pearls & a white dove on top!! Nothing fancy & the tree was just beautiful!!! (And it made my Mother very happy & the hurt just a little less)

Re: xmas tree decorations

My tree is decorated in silver and white! I just love that combination. I bought all of my ornaments at Macy's, Fortunoff, and Target. I have a lot of silver and white glass balls, crystal Waterford pieces, silver and white snow flakes, sliver and white ribbon, white lights, and white beads I tried to post a picture, but it's too large, and I can't figure out how to resize it. When I tried to convert it to a JPG file to send it to the resizer, my computer crashed. This picture thing continues to aggravate the S#$% out of me!

OH MY GOODNES!!! IT WORKED!

Thanks so much Debbie, but I FINALLY figured it out!! Woohoo! I'm so proud of myself! It's a little small, but I'll work on that...

Re: xmas tree decorations

Thats a great idea...Kmart and other cheap places like it has tons of ornaments.

I try to keep my tree very red but I collect ornaments so its not perfect.

Re: xmas tree decorations

Check out Martha Stewart's holiday decorations. She has everything color coordinated!

Also worth going to: Franks Nursery, Michaels, BJs & Costco.

Last year I ordered about 20 yards of crystal garland from Spectrum Home Furnishings. I was at Smith & Hawken yesterday and they were selling the same stuff for more than double the price!!!!

I won these on Ebay last night (to hang in my windows):
