"Insert ornaments in clear cylinders or bowls of different sizes to add a beautiful interior accent. Battery-operated microlights are a fun way to brighten up the piece."

Festive Fairy Lights

This year, ditch the strenuous strands of standard twinkle lights and opt instead for softer, dainty LED fairy lights draped from the top of the tree.

Character Tree

For a simple and quick Christmas decorating solution, transform your tree into a fun holiday character, like this adorable snowman. "First create a snowman head and face from a large, foam floral sphere and place it at the top of the tree," says designer Brian Patrick Flynn. "Next, add two scarves just below the head. To create the look of coat buttons, line up three to seven black ornaments in the center of the tree. Lastly, give the snowman arms with branches placed roughly two-thirds of the way up on each side."

Bold + Blue-tiful

Recreate the look and feel of a snowy wonderland by trimming your flocked tree in ice blue, silver, teal and glittering blue ornaments in various sizes. Stacks of presents beneath the tree create a more finished look, adding layers of color and pattern, thanks to the festive wrapping.

Match the Mantel

Nothing says "festive holiday" quite like a set of properly placed pom-poms. We're jumping for joy over the pom-poms here, strung along the mantel, lining the tree skirt and echoed in the round baubles dotting the tree.

Black + White Baubles

For a contemporary home full of solid colors, clean lines and bright light, a Christmas tree decorated in a modern black and white aesthetic will fit in perfectly. Simply purchase all solid black and all solid white ornaments and add personality with a paint pen and some fun ribbon. Pro tip: Skip the tree topper and cluster a handful of your favorite round ornaments on top for a playful look, instead.

Pet Friendly

Pets love to play with (read: destroy) Christmas trees. Thankfully, there are some tips you can follow to help keep your pets safe and your tree intact. Choose an artificial tree that is under 6 feet tall and anchor it securely to the wall or floor to avoid toppling. Use flat matte ornaments that are larger in size — they're less attractive to pets than shiny ornaments and are harder to chew on or swallow. Attach ornaments securely with twist ties and avoid hanging too many on the bottom quarter of the tree. Don't use tinsel or garland, as pets can easily entangle themselves or choke on swallowed pieces. Lastly, tape down or cover any electrical wires, and always turn the tree off when you aren't in the room.

Today's Tinsel

Gold tinsel garland is the star of this faux spruce in the home of Albuquerque, New Mexico, blogger Amy Weir of Delineate Your Dwelling.

Round, solid-colored plastic ornaments and homemade two-toned pom-poms finish the simple, chic design.

Beige Is Back

Quaint + Quilted

Some old quilts are too fragile or tattered to use as bedding, but they're too precious to throw away. Repurpose one into a charming, cottage-style Christmas tree skirt by using the largest intact portion of the quilt.

GET THE HOW-TO: Turn an Old Quilt Into a Christmas Tree Skirt

Bring Out the Color

Even if you don't embrace color in your everyday decorating, Christmas is the one time of year you can go overboard. Look for ornaments in bold blues, bright greens, pinks and purples and pair them with metallics, like silver and gold, for a festive tree that is sure to attract attention.

Holiday Playhouse

A family's backyard playhouse is converted into a festive escape for the holidays with the addition of a cute, gray tree decorated by the kids.

Forget the Tree Skirt

Mix it up this year by replacing your usual tree skirt with a repurposed container such as a vintage wine crate or galvanized wash tub. To get this antique look, choose a vessel that is proportional to your tree and large enough to create a sturdy base, then place heavy rocks in the bottom for added support. Drape a layer of coordinating fabric between the container and tree for a polished look.

Ribbons Galore

Create a fun, eclectic design by tying ribbon to your tree's branches. Place pieces close together in a single, bold shade or arrange in an ombre pattern by using light-colored ribbon at the top then graduating darker shades of the same hue as you move toward the base. Tip: To save money, buy ribbon scraps from your local craft store or save pieces from gifts or crafts throughout the year.

Remember When

Transform your family's special memories into beautiful ornaments. Snap photos on vacations, during major life events and when you or your children participate in hobbies or sports, then print the pictures in sepia or black and white for a vintage look. Place the photos in miniature gilded frames and hang from your tree. Each Christmas you'll be reminded of your family's adventures and favorite memories.

Blooming Design

Visit your local craft store for a variety of silk flowers, like these rich red garden roses, peonies, hydrangea and gerbera daisies. Mold the flowers into a lush garland, or scatter throughout the branches along with an assortment of well-placed ornaments. Top the tree with a richly textured ribbon for a high-end designer look.

Match the Theme of the Room

When deciding on the perfect decor for your Christmas tree, snag inspiration from the room in which it will live. In a dining room, hanging antique silverware on the tree is a chic, easy way to match your holiday place settings.
