The holiday season is a time for gathering with family and friends, exchanging gifts, decorating the home and of course – putting up the Christmas tree. For many people, an artificial tree has become the preferred option over natural trees due to their convenience and low maintenance requirements. If you’ve decided to go with a man-made for this year, then you’ll want to make sure that your holiday treescape looks more realistic and festive than ever before!
Here are some creative ideas for sprucing up your artificial tree
1. Select or Make DIY Ornaments: It can be easy to overlook the importance of ornaments when styling an artificial Christmas tree. However, ornaments add life and personality to any tree – real or fake! Consider selecting or making handmade glass ornaments for a unique touch. You can even coordinate with other decorations in your home by opting for colored glass pieces in shades of gold, silver, red, green, etc.
2. Create Depth With Different Sizes & Shapes: One of the most common mistakes that people make when decorating an artificial tree is sticking solely with traditional round bulbs as ornamentation. To create a more realistic look on a synthetic fir, use a combination of different sizes and shapes of faux snow-dusted pine cones, poinsettias, stars and more to give your tree natural dimensionality.
3. Layer Stunning Holiday Ribbon: Add another layer of holiday cheer by wrapping ribbon around certain branches on your artificial Christmas Tree in festive colors such as reds and greens bordered with gold accents. The different textures will create visual interest while also providing movement that mimics nature’s gentle breeze through real trees’ branches during wintertime walks outside.
4. Dress Up the Potting Container: Many times the potting container gets overlooked when it comes to decorating an artificial Christmas tree but don’t forget about it! Place festive greenery like holly leaves around its base along with some lush velvet ribbon tied into bows for added texture & color – be sure to coordinate these elements with your other décor so everything ties together nicely! Additionally, adding some lights around the base can lighten up any room instantly!
5. Top Off With an Angelic Tree Topper: Last but not least – crowning off your synthetic fir with a beautiful angelic star will add just the right amount of sparkle & shimmer that every Christmas Tree needs! Choose one that matches both your overall décor palette as well as compliments all other decorations so they come together in perfect harmony this holiday season…which is exactly what we all need right now!
In conclusion, no matter what kind of Christmas Tree you end up choosing this year – whether it be real or Artificial – sprucing up its appearance doesn’t have to be difficult at all! Use these five tips above as guidelines so you can have the most stunning holiday treescape imaginable without breaking any budgets or timelines either 😊 Now go forth and make those Man-Made Holiday Trees shine!!
