Red and Silver this year! - Erik Hanberg

Red and Silver this year!

This year’s Christmas tree has a pretty simple theme of red and silver. This is a result of timing mostly–I just didn’t have enough time to make the ornaments I wanted to.

Still, a simple theme can be very nice. And the main thing is just having a lot of lights to curl up with.

WEDNESDAY UPDATE: Hmm. After re-reading my post it looks like I’m curling up with the tree. That’s not right at all. What I meant to say was that I want to have lots of lights for when I curl up with a book. And this tree has 900 lights on it!

To recap, here are past themes.

2009: Red and Silver
2008: Cat Toys (in honor of Juno)
2007: Office Supplies (Suite133 and Mary’s home office)
2006: Poker Tree.
2005: Olympics (for my pending trip to Torino)
2004: Film tree (for the Grand. Still one of my best themes)
2003: Either no tree or no theme. I can’t remember. I think no tree since I went to Spain that year.
2002: my first Christmas in my own place. I used old ornaments from when I was a kid.
