This is a set of three small trees, from left to right [#1] holds miniature ornaments, [#2] is a twelve ornament holder for a set of 12 days of Christmas ornaments from Hallmark, and [#3] is new for 2017 and is a mini tree especially for mini Wizard of Oz ornaments.

Left to right: [#4] is a 3ft turquoise tree with turquoise lights and has been called the snowflake tree for many years. [#5] is a small turquoise tree with Sesame Street ornaments that has been in the house for a while, but put up for the first time in 2017. [#6] is a 3 ft turquoise tree with clear lights that used to be in our son’s room.  He no longer wants a tree in his room and right now, it is filled with ornaments that are about him.

[#7] The first of our full-sized trees (7 ft) is a green tree with multi-colored lights. It contains ornaments such that it has been named the “Kid tree”. It is all things that either we liked as kids or that our kids liked. So, it is filled with Disney characters and princesses, the Muppets ans assorted other characters that kids like.

[#12] This tree is new in 2017 and is a 6.5 ft rainbow tree. It has clear lights that are not on in this picture and the tree topper when illuminated casts multi-colored stars on the ceiling. The ornaments on this tree match the colors of the tree (red on the red parts, orange on the orange parts, etc.)

[#13] What I guess would be considered our “main tree”. This is the one Santa puts the presents under. It is a 7ft blue spruce with teal, purple, white, and clear lights. It has ornaments that are blue, purple, white, or black.

[#14] is new this year, but replaces a tree that broken last year. It is a bronze metallic tree (6 ft) with clear lights. It contains ornaments whose red and green are not quite right for the large red and green tree, but most predominantly in recent years, it contains anything with brown, which is usually fur, and usually bears or dogs. It contains a number of ornaments that are not entirely gold, but contain some gold and cream.

I believe this tree looks significantly different without the lights on, so another photo of that tree.
