I went to Michaels Craft Store today on my lunch break and there they were - holiday ribbon and snowmen. Granted I would like a snow fall today, something to break the 100 degree heat and 200 % humidity.

Anyway, got me to thinking about lights and colors to start looking for this year, my second Christmas at this lovely 1910 home. I used white lights around and multicolored on the faux tree on the porch. White lights on the trees inside (3).

I want to stick with white lights but want a different ribbon color against this blueish gray and white home. I thought about Gold or Silver. I know it won't stand out to well and then thought about purple to bring out the blue in the house. I need ribbon/bows of something other than red this year. Suggestions?
