  • 1. Do you have a theme? Not really. I do tend to stick to glass balls that are in jewel tones (deep blues, reds, greens, silvers). Other than that, it's just a hodge-podge of ornaments we've collected throughout the years.

    2. Anything you collect? We try to buy ornaments from places we visit/take vacations

    3. Anything you hate? Country-style, I guess.

    4. Any big events this past year you would like to remember? Unfortunately, no.

  • Good idea!  I emailed my person off of elfster and haven't heard back, this will make it easier!

    1. Do you have a theme? no

    3. Anything you hate? not really, i'm not a big of fan of the shiny metallic looking ornaments, if that makes sense.

    4. Any big events this past year you would like to remember? No, not really, we have a new baby coming before christmas but DH's grandmother has already bought 5 babies first christmas ornaments so I think we're all set.

  • 1. Do you have a theme? Definitely not. I am still establishing our tree, so right now I have a lot of shatter proof balls (thanks, dumb cats) and Hallmark stuff from my family, particularly for "our first home" "our first Christmas (pretty sure I have about 7 of these)" and "Baby's first Christmas".

    2. Anything you collect? No. I like Irish stuff, I like sparkles and pretty shiny things, but I generally like the "traditional" colors.

    3. Anything you hate? Following up on the "traditional" colors comment, I am not a huge fan of the lime green/pink/purple stuff like Target has right now. Give me red and green, blue and white, silver and gold! haha.

    4. Any big events this past year you would like to remember? Not particularly.

    Not really, we have red & white lights with mostly silver and white ornaments, plus other special ornaments we've collected over the years

    2. Anything you collect?
    Nope

    3. Anything you hate?
    I don't like character ornaments or anything too fancy.  No religious ornaments or glitter please!  We have so much glitter on our rug from other ornaments/decorations right now it's crazy.

    The birth of Miss Audrey :)

  • 1. Do you have a theme? Nope! We have mostly ornaments from places we've been or homemade or ones that have meaning to us. We don't really do the traditional bulbs. I like funky, different ones.

    2. Anything you collect? No

    3. Anything you hate? No

    4. Any big events this past year you would like to remember? I can't really think of anything! It was a great year but nothing truly momentous!

    We have a lot of snoman ornaments...and while I love them, I am starting to feel like it's enough! I'd love to get some more bulbs that are unique and pretty, more feminine type.
