All of our Christmas decor is old hand me downs and our tree is green. I wish we could update our tree to a white tree!

Green this year. I really love my silver but since my sister helped me so much the last three months with my foot in the cast I deferred to her choice.

Mine is green but I think I need a silver or pink one. My DGD loves pink and she would be in heaven if I had a pink tree.

OMG lesley , that rainbow tree is amazing!! That's kind of how I decorate my tree, ombre starting with a section of red down the bottom, then pink, purple, blue, green and gold (you can see part of it in my profile pic. Now I need to go hunting for a rainbow tree! 🌈 🌲 |

My main tree in the den is your traditional green tree. I have 3 rose gold tinsel trees in my entrance way. They stay up year round.

Black! I love my black tree. I mostly use smoky silver baubles and what I fondly refer to as my tacky ornaments, which are all the brightly coloured ornaments I've picked up on my travels. I love how they all pop against the black tree, and honestly can't imagine going back to green. I also have several smaller tabletop trees that are also black. Oh! That sounds amazing and beautiful! Please, please, please post a picture! I put green in the poll, but I've fantasized about a bright pink tree with bright Dr Seuss style ornaments for years. Now I want a black tree.  |

I have a pink tree that has all flamingo ornaments on it in my dining room. DS1’s is teal, DS2’s is blue, and DS3’s is white. I’m looking for a new pink one, but a very specific shade (like a rose gold or dusty pink) for my family room. I love the sound of ALL of these! I absolutely must find a teal tree, it will go with the colour scheme I want to establish in my house. In answer to the poll question, mine is a boring green. leannec I really love the sound of your white tree with white, blue and silver decorations. ETA: Ha, you can see mine in my avatar pic! We saw a teal tree this year at the store chain called At Home. It was gorgeous!! |

We have a very realistic one that is big and and a new Grinch one that is lime green and stunning. We are probably going to leave it up all year since it is thin and doesn't take up much real estate.

My main tree in the family room is green but the living room tree is flocked. Youngest dd has a white one in her room. Each room in our house has some sort of tree of various colors to match that room.
ETA: I didn’t realize white trees turn brown. That explains why a couple of years ago the white trees that that both dd’s had were brownish when we got them out. We thought we did something wrong.

We use a green tree. But I have my Grandmom’s silver Shiny Brite in the attic. I just don’t have any where to put it up right now. Someday! Lucky you! I have a 4' aluminum tree that I cover in Shiny Brites and would love a 6 or 7 foot one. Just refuse to pay the prices. I'm leaning to a flocked tree - we have had a live one that was gorgeous and may go that way again. Looking to the future, I don't want an 8' plus tree, but 6' is just too little. |

We saw a teal tree this year at the store chain called At Home. It was gorgeous!! I just found a frosted teal tree at Spotlight (fabric/craft/party store) and it was reduced from $160 to $90. They didn't have any in stock at any of their stores, I could only have it delivered. Delivery was an extra $30. I don't think I want top spend $120. Although having said that, I bet I will change my mind in a couple of days, and then they'll be completely sold out! |

The main tree goes in the living room. It’s a Cascade Crystal - green with a little silver sparkle, like tinsel, built into the branches. It’s decorated in red and white and some silver.
I have several smaller trees of all kinds of material, including glass; some are green and some are different colors.
Last year I got a skinny flocked tree with clear lights and put it next to the bookcases at the top of the stairs. I really loved how it looked, no decorations, and wanted more but they were sold out. This year I bought several more as soon as they were available (and on sale) and will use them in various places. I just love the simplicity of the flocked tree with the lights. I’ll use red knitted tree skirts with them.
