Christmas Decorating Tips
Here are some decorating tips to help you prepare your home for this year’s holiday season.
What Is the Christmas Trend for 2023?
Blue and gold is a popular Christmas trend this year, much like our Biltmore Legacy Sapphire & Gold Ornaments. Nostalgia is also a popular theme, with bottle brush trees and vintage ornaments making a comeback. Check our Grove Brush Tree Set and Nutcracker Brigade Ornament Set for inspiration.
What Is the Most Popular Christmas Decoration?
Aside from wreaths and garlands, Christmas lights, and outdoor decorations, candles continue to be one of the most popular Christmas decorations. Whether real or artificial, candles are the easiest way to add light, warmth, and movement to any holiday setting.
What Date Do You Put up Christmas Decorations?
Many prefer to wait until the weekend after Thanksgiving, while some start decorating before that. If you plan to use a real Christmas tree, keep in mind that fresh trees typically only last four to five weeks. Invest in a high-quality artificial Christmas tree if you’d like to decorate earlier and keep it up for longer.
What Goes First When Decorating a Christmas Tree?
We recommend that ribbons go first, especially if you need to anchor them deeper into the branches. Ornaments should go last to avoid bumping and breaking them as you decorate. If you’re stringing your own lights on the tree, make sure to do that first before adding your ribbons.
