Marvel Decor

I need to choose a THEME for my Christmas tree.?

In my family decorating is a serious matter and we go all out for Christmas. I am not going to put regular decorations on my tree only. I need to come up with a theme for my Christmas Tree. I was thinking about a Star Wars Theme because I like Star Wars or a Marvel Superheroes theme or Batman theme because I'm also a comic book nerd. But because I am spending so much this year I have to pick decorations that I will use for the next few years. Should I go with something more 'christmasy' like a Santa Clause Theme or a Snowflake or Candle theme. I'm having a hard time deciding and I plan to start buying my decor soon and will decorate right after Halloween.

When considering a theme to complement your home décor, consider lighting, colour combinations, textures, and the mixing and matching of various materials.

• Modern metals – a contemporary, glowing look that starts with metals such as warm coppers, antique iron, glittery gold, rustic brushed tin or shiny silverplate. Mix with matte or shiny glass balls and metallic stars. Glitzy ribbon garland completes the look.

• Dramatic velvets – Velvet touches in rich red, blue or black can begin with tree decorations and carry through to the tree skirt, stockings and table linens.

• Red is hot – Traditional red looks new this year, when put with silver accents. Start with silver-beaded snowflakes, add aluminum and wire figures and deck with silvery garlands to complement rich red ornaments.

• Exotic ornamentation – Think beading, embroidery, Indian silks and jacquards. Add touches of elegance with jewel-tone glass ornaments trimmed with gold flourishes, beaded stars and snowflakes, sequined balls and beaded tassels such as those available at Canadian Tire.Instead of tinsel, try using beaded garland.
