Christmas decorations
First lady, Melania Trump has unveiled the 2017 White House
holiday decorations which she personally designed.
This year, over 150 volunteers from 29 states spent more than
1,600 hours setting up spaces from the East Wing, which houses
the Gold Star Family Tree, to the China Room, where the Reagan
china has been set out in a display of traditional Christmas
dinner.

In the library, Franklin D. Roosevelt's 1866 edition of "A
Christmas Carol" holds court, and in the grand foyer of the State
Floor, there's a tribute to the very first themed White House
Christmas, "Nutcracker Suite," started by Jacqueline Kennedy in
1961.
According to the White House, by the time December is over, an
estimated 25,000 people will have toured the decorations.
