How to decorate a Christmas tree like a professional?

We all want to decorate the perfect Christmas tree with perfectly coordinated baubles, ornaments, and lights in a festive and stylish scheme. However, in reality, this is easier said than done. Decorating a Christmas tree is no easy task, particularly for perfectionists, but if your home is your pride and joy and the tree serves as the focal point of your home during the festive season, we’ve got you covered.

Purchase a high-quality artificial tree.

Premium-quality Christmas trees provide sturdy and dependable support for decorations. High-quality trees are generally more durable and can withstand repeated use year after year, all while maintaining their beautiful appearance. Choose a traditional tree over a trend-led one to avoid it becoming ‘out of date’ after a few years. 

Shape and fluff branches

Fluffing the branches contributes to the appearance of a fuller, more natural-looking Christmas tree. Separate each branch so that they fan out to cover the maximum amount of surface area possible. Additionally, do not be afraid to bend individual branches to close gaps. A properly shaped tree is an attractive sight, regardless of how sparse or extravagant your embellishments are. This can be a lengthy process, but the end result is well worth the effort.

Create a theme-based design

A professionally decorated Christmas tree has a focal point that unites the decorations. Prior to selecting your decorations, choose a theme to set the tone and give you a clear idea of how to decorate your tree. 

Select the appropriate decorations

Selecting accents that complement your theme will assist you in creating a cohesive design. Choose Christmas tree decorations that complement the overall appearance of your tree, whether they are hanging tree decorations, garlands, ribbons, or floral picks. Numerous bauble sets come in a variety of shapes, sizes, finishes, and designs. Combining these with traditional baubles allows you to play up your theme even more.

Begin with the lights.

While pre-lit Christmas trees are popular and will save you time (and money), if you have a plain tree, you will need Christmas tree lights (real or artificial). When decorating your Christmas tree, the first and most critical step is to always add the lights first – it’s more difficult to do so after you’ve added decorations such as baubles and garlands.

Christmas tree decorating ideas

Given the number of Christmas tree decorations you’re likely to have, you’ll want to ensure that everything is evenly distributed and balanced. Arrange embellishments starting at the top of the tree and working your way down. This way, as you decorate your tree, you can easily verify your design.

Tree picks and floral sprays come in a variety of shapes and sizes, including decorated branches, twigs, berries, and even pinecones; use them as subtle accents to enhance the overall look of your tree. They’re ideal for adding vibrant splashes of color to Christmas trees, as well as wreaths and garlands. Select picks with bendable stems to facilitate shaping.

A striking Christmas tree topper is an elegant way to complete your tree’s designer look. Choose one that complements your theme and the proportion of your tree, taking into account the height of your ceiling as well.
