  • Does your tree have a theme? Nope, it's hodge podge.  We collect ornaments whenever we travel somewhere or whenever there's a big event.

    Any kind of ornaments (color/material/shape) that you love? I have a particular thing for santas, bells, and snowflakes.  I love sparkly stuff.  Pretty much anything will make me happy - I just love getting new ornaments every year.

  • Does your tree have a theme? No, other than we have lots of ornaments that have meaning for us as a couple

    Any kind of ornament that you hate?  I'm generally open, but I do not really like those shiny molded type ones (if that makes sense?!?!  Or  anything with cartoon characters, really.

  • Does your tree have a theme? No theme but overall what I consider a classy tree

    Any kind of ornaments (color/material/shape) that you love? I love artsy, unique ornaments and if they have a story even better.

    Any kind of ornament that you hate? I really dislike anything cliche, country, vintage metallic, stuffed etc.

  • Does your tree have a theme? Not really 

    Any kind of ornaments (color/material/shape) that you love? I like glass ornaments or ornaments inspired by nature, but nothing too "crafty" looking.  I like funky/artsy things too.

    Any kind of ornament that you hate? I don't like country, stuffed or cartoon ornaments.

    THANKS ELF!  :)

  • Does your tree have a theme? 

    I guess stars are a loose theme.  I have gathered many star ornaments, but we also have lots of older ornaments that our parents have given us from our childhoods.   

    Any kind of ornaments (color/material/shape) that you love?

    Again, stars.  No real preference to color or material.   I like ornaments that are simple, or look handmade/crafty, and sparkly always looks good on a Christmas tree!

    Any kind of ornament that you hate?

    Well, do my DH's dorky Star Trek ornaments count? :-)   No, not really.
