MOM RECEIVES BACKLASH FOR 'BEIGE' CHRISTMAS TREE MAKEOVER

In a video posted last week, Nattie Jo Powell shows how she repainted a toy Christmas tree for her daughter to match her home’s aesthetic. The toy was originally bright green with different colored ornaments and a yellow star.

Powell painted the tree dark green, the ornaments brown and white, the star brass, and the base of the tree beige.

“Go ahead and call me crazy or a sad beige mom for what I’m about to do,” Powell says in her TikTok. “I really think [Powell’s toddler] is a neutral girlie.”

Many commenters on Powell’s video called her a “sad beige mom,” and said that children need bright colors to help their brain’s develop.
