How Melania Trump honors past Christmas displays in White House holiday design

The Trump family's festive spirit is alive and well in the White House, where first lady Melania Trump has outdone herself with a Christmas theme that honors her Slovenian heritage. The holiday decor, dubbed "Home Is Where the Heart Is," features traditional Slovenian elements like intricate wooden carvings and colorful textiles.

Melania's love for her homeland is evident in every aspect of the White House's festive display, from the tree to the decorations on the walls. In contrast, the Christmas theme at the Trump family residence in Mar-a-Lago is more subdued, with a focus on traditional American motifs.

The Slovenian influence on Melania's White House Christmas is not surprising, given her own history as an immigrant and her efforts to celebrate her cultural heritage during her time in the United States. She has made it clear that she wants to honor her roots and share them with the country she now calls home.

President Trump and his wife have been working hard to make this year's holiday season special for their guests, who are in for a treat as they arrive at the White House to celebrate. Melania has put a lot of thought into the design of this year's display, which is sure to delight visitors from across the country.

In an interview with CBS News, Jennifer Pickens, a White House expert, explained that Melania's Christmas theme is all about warmth and welcome. "It's a celebration of home and family," she said.
 
I gotta say, I love how Melania Trump brought her Slovenian roots to the White House for Christmas. It's really cool to see her cultural heritage shine through in the decorations. The whole "Home Is Where the Heart Is" theme is so warm and inviting - it feels like she's giving a big hug to the country ๐Ÿค—. And I'm guessing it's also pretty meaningful for her, given that she came from an immigrant background herself. It's awesome that she's sharing her love of Slovenian traditions with everyone in the US. The contrast between this year's White House display and their Mar-a-Lago Christmas is also interesting - maybe they just wanted to give each location its own special vibe?
 
just saw the pics of melania's white house christmas decor and i gotta say, it looks really nice ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ’• especially the slovenian elements, its like a little taste of europe in dc. i love how she incorporated traditional textiles and wooden carvings into the display, gives me all warm fuzzy feelings. its cool that she's making an effort to celebrate her heritage, its something we should definitely be doing more of here. and can you blame him for wanting to keep things a bit low-key at mar-a-lago compared to the white house?

i also gotta say, i'm kinda surprised that donald trump's christmas theme at mar-a-lago is so subdued compared to the white house. i guess u can't expect him to go all out with festive decorations when he's more about that private club life ๐Ÿ˜‚ but seriously, melania's white house christmas display is giving me all the cozy feels. it's like she's inviting everyone into her home for a slovenian holiday party! ๐ŸŽ…๏ธ
 
OMG, I'm lovin' this Slovenian vibe at the White House ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ! It's so nice to see Melania sharing her culture with us all. I mean, who says Christmas has to be all about red and green? This "Home Is Where the Heart Is" theme is giving me major cozy feels ๐Ÿ˜. And can we talk about how beautiful those wooden carvings are? ๐Ÿคฉ It's like a little taste of Slovenia in there! I'm also loving how she's keeping it traditional while still making it feel modern and special for all her guests ๐Ÿ‘. This year's holiday season is shaping up to be pretty fabulous, if you ask me ๐ŸŽ‰
 
I'm low-key obsessed w/ Melania's White House Christmas decor ๐ŸŽ„โค๏ธ! I mean, who else can make a Slovenian theme so chic & festive? ๐Ÿคฉ The way they incorporated traditional elements like wooden carvings & colorful textiles is everything ๐Ÿ’•. And it's dope that she's highlighting her heritage, you feel? ๐Ÿ‘‘ As an immigrant herself, I can relate to wanting to share your culture w/ others ๐Ÿ˜Š. Plus, the tree looks straight fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ! I'm sure Donald's vibe is all about the classic American stuff, but Melania's got the whole Slovenian flair going on ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŽ…๏ธ
 
Wow ๐Ÿ˜Š, I'm loving this Slovenian-inspired Christmas decor at the White House! It's so cool how Melania is celebrating her heritage in such a big way ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‘. I can already imagine the intricate wooden carvings and colorful textiles making the whole place feel cozy and welcoming โค๏ธ. Interesting to see how it contrasts with their Mar-a-Lago decor, but I'm all about that Slovenian spirit ๐Ÿ’ช!
 
I'm loving this Slovenian vibe at the White House ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ. It's so nice to see Melania Trump embracing her heritage and sharing it with the country. I mean, who says you can't bring your cultural roots into the holiday season? And honestly, I think it's kinda cool that Mar-a-Lago is going for a more low-key look this year - not that I'm hating on the Trumps or anything ๐Ÿ˜.

It's also great to see the focus on warmth and welcome. It sounds like Melania really put her heart into designing the display, and it's clear she wants to make everyone feel at home ๐Ÿ . And can we talk about how cute the wooden carvings are? I need to get my hands on some of those for my own Christmas tree!
 
I'm so down for this Slovenian-inspired Christmas theme at the White House ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‘! It's awesome to see Melania Trump honoring her heritage in such a big way, especially with her own immigrant story ๐Ÿ™Œ. I mean, who wouldn't want to celebrate their roots and share it with the country? ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธโค๏ธ The attention to detail is everything - from the intricate wooden carvings to the colorful textiles, this display is giving me all the festive feels ๐ŸŽ…๏ธ! Can't wait to see what other cultural nods we get throughout the holiday season... #SlovenianPride #ChristmasMagic #MelaniaTrump
 
I mean, what's up with the tree? It looks like something from a bad 90s rom-com ๐Ÿ˜ด. And don't even get me started on the lights โ€“ they're so... uniform ๐ŸŽ„. I'm all for festive vibes, but can't we mix it up a bit more this year? The whole "Home Is Where the Heart Is" thing is nice and all, but it feels like Melania's trying to sell us on Slovenian culture a little too hard ๐Ÿคช.

And where's the fun in that?! I'd love to see some more unique decorations or some pop of color to break up the monotony. It's like the whole White House is stuck in a time loop ๐Ÿ’€. Maybe next year we can get some actual snowflakes on the tree... ๐Ÿ‘Ž
 
I gotta say, Melania Trump's got some serious decorating skills ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŽ„. I mean, who knew Slovenian folk art could be so cool? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ It's actually kinda nice to see the First Lady celebrating her heritage instead of just doing a generic American Christmas vibe. And let's be real, it's not like we haven't seen enough of that around here ๐Ÿ˜‰. The fact that she's trying to share her culture with America is pretty cool too. Maybe we can learn something from her and appreciate some new traditions? ๐Ÿค”
 
I gotta say, I love how Melania Trump went all out on this Slovenian-themed Christmas decor ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ! But let's get real, it's not like Donald Trump is exactly subtle when it comes to flaunting his wealth, so I guess you could say the White House is getting a major renovation... of its own taste ๐Ÿ˜‚. The wooden carvings and textiles are pretty cool, but honestly, I've seen more elegant decor in IKEA. Still, I do love that Melania is celebrating her heritage - kudos to her for being true to herself! And can we talk about how weird it is that the Trump family's Christmas theme at Mar-a-Lago is so... basic? ๐Ÿค”
 
Wow ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‘ The Slovenian influence on Melania's decor is really cool! I love how she incorporated traditional elements into the White House display. It's so nice to see her celebrate her heritage in such a big way. Interesting ๐Ÿ˜Š that the Mar-a-Lago Christmas theme is more subdued compared to the one at the White House. Maybe it's because it's their personal space?
 
I love how Melania is bringing a piece of Slovenia to DC ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’š this year's Christmas display is giving me major cozy vibes! As an immigrant myself, I can appreciate the importance of honoring one's roots while making a new place feel like home. It's beautiful to see her sharing Slovenian culture with the country she now calls home โค๏ธ The contrast between the White House and Mar-a-Lago decor is interesting too - it's cool that Melania gets to showcase her heritage in such a big way ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‘
 
I gotta say, the Slovenian vibes at the White House are really bringing some elegance to the holiday decor ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ’ซ. It's dope how Melania is showcasing her heritage like that, especially since she went from being an immigrant to being part of the First Lady crew ๐Ÿ™Œ. I mean, it's not every day you see traditional Slovenian elements mixed with American flair in a presidential setting.

I think what's cool about this year's theme is that it's all about warmth and welcome โ€“ it's like stepping into someone's home for the holidays ๐Ÿ . The wooden carvings and colorful textiles are giving me major festive feels, and I'm sure visitors from across the country will love it just as much as I do โค๏ธ. It's a great way to celebrate the holiday season and share some cultural love ๐ŸŽ.
 
ugh, can we please just have a chill christmas display for once? instead of going full-on over-the-top with all the traditional slovenian elements, can't they just keep it simple? i mean, i get that melania wants to celebrate her heritage, but does it have to be so...obvious? ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ

and what's up with the difference in christmas themes at the two residences? mar-a-lago is literally the most exclusive place on earth, and they're over there keeping it super low-key. meanwhile, the white house is like a giant festive party, and it feels kinda...forced. ๐ŸŽ„

i'm all for celebrating cultural heritage and all that jazz, but can't we just find a happy medium? i swear, christmas decorations are just an excuse for people to get all fancy and try too hard. ๐Ÿ˜’
 
I'm loving this year's White House Christmas decor ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‘‘ especially the Slovenian touches - it adds a nice personal touch to the festive atmosphere! It's so cool that Melania got to incorporate her heritage into the display like that. I mean, who wouldn't want to feel welcome and at home in the White House during the holidays? The contrast between this and their Mar-a-Lago decor is interesting too - guess they wanted a more low-key vibe for their private residence ๐Ÿค”. Anyway, can't wait to see how all these festive displays stack up against each other! ๐ŸŽ…๐Ÿผ
