Blue
Gold
Red
Silver
Pale pink

This year I am thinking silver, mauve and purple.
I usually use some small wooden ornaments for the g/kids to enjoy but mainly keep it how I like it.
Always clear fairy lights on the tree, but do have coloured ones i the windows. Put up at least two nativity sets too.
Must start and get enthused for this year!

Your trees sound very pretty.

The funny thing about the pine scent, I love having real pine trees at christmas but I cannot stand anything that is scented with pine--candles or anything like that. I get sinus headache almost immediately. Weird, I know.
