The biggest disappointment thus far is that Mrs. Biden did not take photos or release video footage of herself putting the final touches on the decor.<\/p>\n<p>Every year, Mrs. Trump would release a video and then, later, some photos of herself walking through the halls of the White House in admiration of what the residence\u2019s design team had pulled off. An impeccably-dressed First Lady standing next to her vision <em>should<\/em> become a tradition though Mrs. Biden has already bucked it.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Biden\u2019s most startling decorations are in the East Collonade and the entrance of the West Wing. They are overtly cartoonish and appear as though a child designed them. The sophistication of the White House looks out of place with the gold stars and blue dots hanging through the hallway.<\/p>\n<p>The stars, according to Mrs. Biden, represent \u201cfrontline workers\u201d or something. We\u2019re in year two of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic, can we leave COVID-19 out of the decor? It is exhausting.&nbsp;The blue dots appear like a giant solar system school project while the wreaths on the doors across from them are entirely disconnected from the color scheme.<\/p>\n<p>Then, at the entrance of the East Wing, oversized Dr. Seuss (didn\u2019t they cancel him?) Christmas presents are stacked to create an archway around the doors. The screaming shade of red is detached from all the other shades of red throughout the White House decor and the giant bow atop the arch is wrinkled.<\/p>\n<p>Wasn\u2019t President Biden\u2019s big campaign message \u201cBuild Back Better?\u201d Why not a Christmas theme that aligned more with her husband\u2019s overarching theme for the year? \u201cGifts from the Heart\u201d seems misplaced.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18950762\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" readability=\"36\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/GettyImages-1236886550.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18950762\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/GettyImages-1236886550.jpg\" alt width=\"1920\" height=\"1253\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Decorations are seen in the White House East Colonnade during a press preview of the White House holiday decorations in Washington, DC on November 29, 2021.

Most of everything revolving around the holiday is glitzy, twinkling, rich, and grand \u2014 especially when the White House is the backdrop. It\u2019s why even when a few rooms of Christmas decorations are approaching fugly, other rooms are stunning.<\/p>\n<p>Take, for example, Mrs. Biden\u2019s hallway in the White House and the theme of the State Dining room. In the hallway, polished arches are filled with greenery with traditional red berry accents and soft lights.<\/p>\n<p>The State Dining room is the best of the bunch. Mrs. Biden says the trees on either side of the fireplace were turned effectively into photo albums as they are adorned with ornaments that showcase the former first families that have resided in the White House.<\/p>\n<p>Hanging at the center of the trees, on the mantle, are striped stockings. It\u2019s the picturesque traditional\/contemporary balance, that is particularly lacking in many other rooms, which makes this display simply the best of them all.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18950810\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" readability=\"36\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/GettyImages-1236886404.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18950810\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/GettyImages-1236886404.jpg\" alt width=\"1920\" height=\"1303\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>A Marine White House Military social aide stands at attention in a hallway of the White House during a press preview of the White House holiday decorations in Washington, DC on November 29, 2021.
