Matchy Match?

It's beginning to look like Christmas in our house.  I'm curious if you are a "matchy match" (my very own made up word) or do you go with what you like even though it doesn't match?  Just curious.  Seems like I always have this conversation with people at work around this time of year.  I definitely am a go with what I like.  Our Christmas tree is a mish mash of ornaments that all have some sort of story.  Grace is finally getting the hang of the stories this year.  She made me laugh tonight with a few of her own made up stories about ornaments she has received as gifts or made through her 6 years.

I've met several people along the way that definitely have to have everything that matches.  I guess that's what makes the world go around.

For years I had the hodge podge tree and loved it and always dreamed of everything matching one day. So when my sons got old enough to leave things along, matchy it was and I loved it too. I think both sides of the coin is grand.

I always use one or two colors of balls, but all of the ornaments that I can fit on the tree. I don't care how big or small or old the ornaments are. Last year I used Burgundy and Bronze balls.
