I never knew of any theme other than "Christmas Tree" until I met my (now) husband's family. He's from eastern Kentucky, where everything is very "traditional" style; quilts, rustic colors like maroons and forrest greens, LOTS of bows-handmade from 2 inch wide fabric ribbon, etc. EVERYONE- individual families, the bank, the stores downtown- has a color theme. Usually it involves red and either white, silver, or gold, and then some other color as an accent. But, I have to say, everything always looks beautiful and so tasteful. Just very different from the "Christmas tree" theme I'm used to where every mismatch of handmade and store bought ornament from the past twenty years all collide on one tree.
