Gather friends and family for a fun and festive night of decorating the Christmas tree. Turn on the holiday tunes and don’t forget to serve some warming mulled wine the smell of spice and orange will fill your home and get everyone in the holiday spirit.

When it comes to decorating the tree, keep in mind that a theme will help pull the look together, making your tree stand out. Here are few fun ideas to get you started.

Snow White

A white-themed Christmas tree brightened up with splashes of silver ornaments and tinsel is a great way to tie together a room. If you are yearning for a dose of colour, add a few red or blue ornaments, which will pop against the snow white.

Handmade Charm

This is great fun for children and will bring out your crafty side. Even if you aren’t feeling up to making your own decorations, there are plenty of handmade style ornaments that can be used, such as decorated gingerbread cookie ornaments. Or buy some thick, colourful ribbon and use that as tinsel for the handmade effect.

Candyland

If you’ve opted to go the fake tree route, why not pick out a bright fun colour, such as hot pink. Even if you stick to a real evergreen, brighten it up with pinks, purples and lime greens instead of the traditional dark reds and greens. To bring in that candyland appeal, hang candy canes and wrap the tree in strands of popcorn.

Traditional

If you’re a traditionalist, there is nothing better than red, green and a splash of gold ornaments. Make the tree personal by picking out a few unique decorations that will eventually be passed down in your family and become heirlooms.
