First lady Jill Biden on Monday revealed her White House holiday décor and her theme for the season, “Gifts from the Heart.”
The first lady chose symbols to represent gifts that unite Americans together for the annual White House holiday decorations, including faith, family, and friendship, a love of the arts, learning, and nature, gratitude, service, and community, and unity and peace.
“As we celebrate our first holiday season in the White House, we are inspired by the Americans we have met across the country, time and again reminding us that our differences are precious and our similarities infinite,” President Biden and the first lady said in a joint statement.

Red gift boxes lined the East Wing entrance to the White House, where a band played Christmas carols like “Jingle All the Way,” “The First Noel,” and “Joy to the World.”
A lit-up tree is the first decoration when visitors enter the East Wing, decorated with star ornaments with the names of gold star service members on it. The wing is dedicated to gifts of service to honor the military, frontline workers, essential workers, and first responders.

One year had blood-red trees lining the hallway (these were often photoshopped as Handmaids in capes). Another had stark white bare branches making a tunnel and underlit like it was a horror movie.
She was brought to New York to meet Donald Trump as a gift from Epstein. Perhaps that sort of party event was a memory. Young girls in costumes "....wander(ing) silently among the guests as if they were living decorations" was kind of his thing. 
All kidding aside, though I am not sure I am, her taste was a tacky attempt of avant-guarde.
I just assumed everyone was exposed to and horrified by those holiday decorations, but to learn you never knew gives me a warm feeling that you cannot be alone. Thank the stars that some people were spared this horror. 
Thank you so much Dr. Jill. You and your family are true American treasures.

Maybe they're best viewed from afar? 
"That looks like it belongs in Macy's," was my exact thought.
It's like a subtle little tribute to them!
I'm sure the first lady will thank and give credit to those who designed and built the displays.
