Melania Trump's White House Christmas Decorations Are Here & It's So Festive

On Monday. Nov. 27, First Lady Melania Trump showed off her White House Christmas decorations, and it's a whole lot of holiday sparkle. She shared a festive video of her decor on Twitter on Monday morning, ready to ring in December in dazzling style. The White House Christmas decorations are a long-held American tradition for the first lady, who typically is in charge of running the household, including decorations, furnishing, and event planning (because women!).

Decorating the White House for the holiday season is a tradition that goes back 200 years. According to the White House Historical Association, the first White House Christmas party was hosted in December 1800 by President John Adams and First Lady Abigail Adams. It was just a little party for the young children of Washington D.C.'s politicians. But it wasn't until 1889 that the White House first got a Christmas tree, when President Benjamin Harrison's administration brought it into the Yellow Oval Room on the second floor of the house. And, of course, First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy had to come in and jazz the tradition up by creating annual themes for the White House Christmas tree (the first one she picked was the Nutcracker ballet).

You can see First Lady Trump's White House Christmas decorations in the official video here:

As you can see in the video, there is definitely more than one Christmas tree up in that house. That's helpful, because First Lady Trump is tying a whole bunch of themes into this year's official theme. For her first year in the White House, Trump's Christmas decorations theme is "Time-Honored Traditions," according to a White House press release. So it's basically a theme of themes.

More to come.
