Get the Holiday Mood with the 2017 White House Christmas Decorations
The First Lady of the USA Melania Trump finally showed to the world the long-awaited 2017 White House Christmas decorations. And all we can say now: it’s Christmas at the world’s most coveted home already!
Every single year during this time of the year, the White House is filled with all sort of cheery holiday decorations: wreaths, garland, colorful lights, gingerbread houses, and Christmas trees, of course. As the tradition dictates, in late November, a team of volunteers from all over the country worked diligently to get the world’s most expensive home ready for the popular public holiday tours.
This year’s theme is “Time Honored Traditions“, highlighting 53 Christmas trees with over 12,000 ornaments, 18,000 feet of Christmas lights, 71 wreaths, and a 350-pound Gingerbread house. Plus, the White House Crèche, an 18th-century terracotta and wood nativity scene, is displayed in the East Room.
And invaded by the holiday spirit, The Most Expensive Homes invites you all to discover all the Christmas decoration details chosen by the new tenants of the most coveted zip code on the planet. TAKE A LOOK!
