You may have noticed that everyone has started putting up their Christmas decorations a little earlier this year, from your neighbour down the street to your friend on Instagram. And why not? The best time of the year is just around the corner!

Looking on Pinterest for Christmas tree design ideas is usually the smartest first step, whether you enjoy the look of a pink Christmas tree decorated in festive DIY ornaments or prefer a more conventional red and green aesthetic. Or even if you’re thinking of toning it down this year and going for a clean, minimalist look. We’ve some suggestions to help you out! Here are the 7 best Christmas tree decorating ideas to bring joy and holly to the season! Happy holidays!


Easy DIY Dried Citrus Christmas Tree Ornaments

Christmas Tree Decorating Ideas

The most beautiful, aromatic, and all-natural homemade Christmas ornaments for your tree are made from dried orange slices and star anise. They're easy to make and have a stained-glass window effect. Here’s how to make your own DIY citrus Christmas tree ornaments:

What you’ll need

  • Oranges
  • Star Anise 
  • Needle and thread
  • Sharp knife

How

  1. Cut your oranges into half to one-centimetre-thick slices using a sharp knife. They will be more transparent the thinner they are.
  2. Put them in the oven on a baking sheet set on top of a grate so that heat can circulate them. They should be baked for 4-6 hours at 200 degrees.
  3. After drying, allow them to cool. Use a brown or dark thread to attach the star anise to the oranges' centres. If they aren't entirely dry, don't worry. They will continue to dry on your tree for the next few days.
  4. To hang each orange from your tree, create a string by sewing through the top of each orange.

  • Paintbrushes

  • Small Red Sequins
  • Small Wiggle Eyes
  • Hot Glue Gun

How

  2. Paint the metal part all white; this is the rim of Santa’s hat ( remember to leave the bristles completely blank for his beard.)
  3. Hot glue the wiggle eyes and sequin nose ON the painted white part of the brush.
  4. Set aside to allow it to dry.
  5. String some twine or ribbon through the hole on the paintbrush

Rainbow Christmas Tree

Christmas Tree Decorating Ideas

It’s time to hop onto the rainbow Christmas tree train! Green trees are lovely, but there's a reason why humans also gave us gaudy multicoloured artificial Christmas trees. Whether it may be pink, purple, yellow, or orange, colourful Christmas trees are a sure way to get your dinner guest talking. 

Of course, rainbow trees aren't for everyone when it comes to Christmas. And we do admit that it’s a loud statement, but if you want a beautiful Christmas rainbow tree, you must totally commit to it. Add glittering lights, sequins, perhaps some old-fashioned beaded necklaces, and a DIY paper star to top it all off. After all, it’s Christmas!


Beaded Garland Christmas Tree

Christmas Tree Decorating Ideas

Christmas trees are usually the focal point in every home during the holiday season, especially if you’re hosting and want to wow your guest with a beautifully decorated tree. In our opinion, it should be the best part of any Christmas home tour!

Placing ornaments, like beaded strings or garlands, is a lovely and unique Christmas decoration, and there’s no right or wrong way to drape them. Of course, you can always just throw them on and call it a day or carefully plan the draping, so it’s neater. A string of beads can be the only decoration if done right. But if you want extra elements, combine them with other Christmas decorations like tinsel, pine cones, or ornaments to make the tree look fuller.


Cotton Flower Christmas Tree

Christmas Tree Decorating Ideas

You’ll love this Christmas tree decoration idea if you like the rustic farmhouse look. Christmas is a fun time to decorate with cotton, as it’s incredibly versatile and resembles snow, giving your home a wintery Christmas vibe. They also have a very subtle and pretty look, making them an excellent option for minimalists. Instead of using baubles this Christmas, tuck some cotton flowers into your Christmas tree with a few seasonal picks like tree sprigs and florals to give your tree various textures.  

You can buy cotton stems at most florists or nurseries, just ask for cotton flowers, and they'll point you in the right direction.


Fluffy Christmas Tree

Christmas Tree Decorating Ideas

Give your tree a luxurious look this Christmas! If you wish to include the characteristics of snow in your home, choose white and fluffy garlands for your tree. A clever way to do this is to use a feather boa. Wrap the boa around your tree as you would your lights in a downward spiral motion for a more cohesive look. To finish the effect, use light-coloured ornaments but keep them minimal. You can use white, pastels, and silvers. Add more feathers and fluff where needed.

If you’re going for a clean, minimalist aesthetic, opt for an all-white tree or a green tree with snow-covered bristles.
