First Lady Melania Trump unveiled the White House Christmas decorations Monday on Twitter, After some controversial trends in the past several years, the First Lady chose a more traditional approach this year, themed on patriotism.

When the Christmas decorations go up, the mood can get brighter in homes across the globe. After a rough 2020, a lot of people are hoping that the sights of Christmas trees and greenery will help them get through the holidays. That might even be true in the White House.

In the video, Melania showed off dozens of trees in rooms throughout the building, most of which featured red, white, and blue ornaments. Another prominent feature is a miniature train with "America the Beautiful" written on top of it.

According to Yahoo! News, the decorations are coming out just weeks after a recorded conversation was released where Melania was critical of the First Lady duty to oversee Christmas decorations.

Melania's holiday setups have faced backlash for being stark and trendy instead of warm and welcoming. One hallway that has faced the most criticism –in 2018, the red berry trees she selected were called out as looking like a horror film — was filled with topiaries that were not lit up this year.

This year, Melania included some touches that paid tribute to people who have worked the frontlines during the pandemic, including showing off the hospital in the miniature Christmas village. The display also showcases trees that salute the 100th anniversary of the women's suffrage movement and ornaments from children's artwork that represent all 50 states, according to USA Today.

Although Melania was criticized for her statements about decorating, they reflect her frustration with a thankless job that often falls to mothers. People can be critical of the aesthetics, but filling a house with Christmas cheer is always a worthy endeavor, especially in hard times. The red and green — and red, white, and blue — may be just what is needed in Washington to uplift visitors and government workers, especially after the pandemic, the election, and other 2020 worries.
