White House Christmas Trees Through The Years

Betty Ford: 1976 'America Is Love'

For the country's Bicentennial in 1976, the theme for the White House Christmas was America is Love. Red, white, and blue were in the color scheme from the tree to the rest of the White House decorations. Big red velvet bows, handmade flowers in many materials, and Bicentennial dolls were all over the place. [Photos via]
