thing for all us. i understand only is this true, the statistic, only 10% new material are decorations used? this year. incredible. there has been a push in recent years to recycle and reuse. i saw these silver rain dear i put on the eastern trees last year are now on a mantle. we do that. we like seeing things that are warming to our hearts. it also gives and poses a bit of a challenge. how do you mix it up, make it interesting. make it fresh. yes. every year, they pull out all the stops. it really comes from the first lady. i like to joke she s the commander in chief of christmas. what s important to her is the military and children. this year, for the first time, gum ball trees. mrs. obama sugar in the white house. in moderation. i guess in decoration.
