Theme Christmas Tree Décor

Christmas tree decorations

Modern Christmas tree decorations have taken on an altogether new meaning. Groups, communities and households compete with each other to put on spectacular displays that eventually turn into public treats!

A stray discussion with a colleague, a visit to the market place, a road trip, a conversation with your children, your lawn, or anything for that matter! You can draw inspiration from anywhere, after all creativity knows no barriers.

The concept of theme Christmas tree décor is becoming increasingly popular, both with those who decorate public plazas, buildings and market places; and with those who decorate their homes for parties on Xmas.  The idea is to do something unique, different and innovative. People look forward to brightly lit malls, plazas and streets; and in fact take time out to go sightseeing, just to have a look at the fantabulous public decoration displays on Yule.  Cities like Amsterdam turn into a sea of glittering lights!

For those who take time out to decorate trees at home for X mas can try any one of these interesting themes this winter:

Go back to the ancient German customs

Do something very different this year. Take fresh apples and wrap them in glittering gold and silver foils. Tie them with gold and silver threads and hang them around your evergreen. Add a few baubles. Keep it simple. You could string a few LED lights to add to the gold and silver effect!

The other thing you could try this season is bake candy canes, cookies and Santa theme biscuits. Tie them with strings and hang them on the tree. Intersperse them with glittering silver bells and glass balls. You can even tie cupcakes to the tree on Christmas Eve. So if you have children coming over, there’ll be a real treat waiting to greet them!
