Add Some Sparkle with Glitter Ornaments
Christmas is a busy time of year, with decorations to hang and presents to wrap. But at the center of any festive holiday scene is the Christmas tree. While a real Christmas tree can warm up your home with its inviting scent, fake trees come with their own advantages – like no need for watering or sweeping up pesky pine needles from the floor!
If you’re looking for ways to decorate your fake Christmas tree this season, here are some ideas beyond tinsel that will make your tree look unique and fun for everyone in the family.
Start off by looking for a theme that you want to apply to your tree. Maybe it’s whimsical woodland creatures, metallic silver balls adorned with jewels, or an ode to winter’s snowflakes. Having a specific theme makes it easier to pick out coordinating decorations that will have your fake tree popping with personality.
To give your fake tree an extra boost of pizzazz, use strands of lights in different colors instead of just plain white ones. You can also get creative with garlands – try one made from colorful ribbons or felt flowers in various sizes and shapes. And don’t forget about accessories like felt reindeer antlers and cotton snowballs which can be strung together on garland for added glamor and sparkle.
Get Creative with DIY Decorations
You don’t have to stop at buying just store-bought decorations either! Get crafty by making handmade items like paper cutout snowflakes, poinsettias fashioned from construction paper, or origami cranes hung on twine. Your kids may even enjoy helping you create these special pieces as they become part of decorating the family Christmas tree!
Maybe you prefer something more vintage-inspired? Felt stockings hung on the branches are always a classic choice along with old-fashioned glass or porcelain ornaments like those found in antique stores. String popcorn and cranberries together for an old-timey look too – this was once popular before lights became widely available!
You can also add interesting things like miniature books, tiny dolls tucked into empty corners of the boughs, fluffy pillows made from fabric scraps draped over branches or even potted plants hanging from loops of string (just make sure they get enough water!).
If you still can’t decide what kind of decorations to buy for your fake Christmas tree then why not go all out and create something completely unique? Hang pictures around the boughs featuring festive scenes like Santa Claus flying across the sky in his sleigh full of goodies or a group photo taken last year during Christmas dinner – these personal touches will make your fake tree truly stand out!
No matter what kind of decorations you buy – be they store-bought or handmade – there’s no wrong way when it comes to accessorizing your artificial Christmas tree this holiday season; just get creative and have fun!
