1. Minimalist
Make a big statement with minimal effort. Highlight the beauty of your artificial Christmas tree with little to no ornaments. Choose a sparse tree or one with a more rustic silhouette for a more organic feel or use a pre-lit tree for easier decorating.
2. Scandinavian Splendor
Highlight the beauty of a Northern European winter with a simple yet stunning combination of silver, white, and red accents. Wrap the base with a red quilted tree skirt to complete your modern Christmas tree.
3. Vintage Elegance
Showcase the grandeur of the roaring ‘20s with a vintage Christmas tree theme. Glittering Christmas décor in silver and gold provides a glamourous contrast to your tree’s foliage and underscores the festive feel of the season. You can also add sheer or metallic ribbons or feather picks for texture.
4. Monochromatic
Put a twist on the classic winter wonderland look with Christmas decorations featuring silver or champagne hues for a polished glow. Drape matching greenery over banisters and kitchen counters to spread cheer throughout your home.
5. Whimsical Woodland
Enchant guests with forest-themed Christmas decorations. Hang woodland creature ornaments on your tree to create a lovely backdrop for your gatherings this season. A faux fur tree skirt completes your Christmas tree.
6. True Blue Winter
Capture the beauty of a wintry sky with a blend of deep blues and bright whites. Decorate your tree with dark blue and silver ornaments to mimic a starry night, then bring the sparkle of a frosted forest with jewelled picks.
7. Precious Metals
Channel old-world elegance with burnished metal décor. Display antiqued pieces in gold and earthy colours to evoke timeless charm. Tie up the theme with a matching wreath and garland over your fireplace mantel.
8. Classic Christmas
Give a nod to nostalgia with glass and glitter Christmas ornaments in traditional holiday colours, shapes, and designs. Mix and match with personalized decorations and other vintage touches for a tree that brings you back to Christmases past.
