The White House is all decked out for 2021
8Check out the beautiful photos from the people’s house all decked out in holiday garb.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/holidays-2021/
Here’s the Blue Room.
“They’re real and they’re spectacular!”
There are 41 Christmas trees throughout the White House.
Approximately 6,000 feet of ribbon, over 300 candles, and over 10,000 ornaments were used this year to decorate the White House.
Over 78,750 holiday lights decorate the trees, garlands, wreaths, and displays in the White House.
Twenty-five classic wreaths adorn the north and south facades of the White House.
It takes over 100 dedicated volunteers working a full week to decorate the inside and outside of the White House.

What’s your favorite room?
@mike808 they are all stunning, but the grand hall is breathtaking
41? Really?
Isn’t that… a bit much?
@haydesigner My thoughts too, but apparently it’s on par with recent administrations.

“A variety of ornaments and decorations hang throughout the house. Most of the decoration designs this year use repurposed ornaments and embellishments that were already part of the White House holiday inventory.” I would hope so!
@haydesigner Maybe they should add a few more to bring it up to 46 and then every administration add another one.
@haydesigner Yeah, not really making the best statement about cutting energy costs to stave off climate change…
@mbersiam I was thinking the same thing.
This made me
, thanks!
When I look at the first photo all I can see is the window treatments need to be dressed properly!
