Hello again! I’m back with some more of my favorite Christmas ornament themes for 2021. In part one we talked about traditional Christmas ornaments, nature-themed, color-pop, and novelty ornaments. Today we’re going to look at Haunted ornaments, Pop-culture-themed ornaments, travel-themed ornaments, and patriotic ornaments.
Are you a spooky season fan? I am and I have to say this was probably my favorite series of ornaments to choose. I always decorate my tree with a few spooky ornaments and am a big fan of Halloween in general. For this theme, I picked a few very Halloween-themed ornaments and then a couple that will look good on any tree.
