how much the color grey is available for Christmas decorations. That’s how much grey is still a popular home decoration theme/color. One store even had grey Christmas trees! Grey balls, candles, etc, and of course lots of silver which goes with the grey. And lots of winter snow with the grey.

I must admit I do love the grey for the house, but Christmas?? Not so much, and her design is just stark and horrible looking.
