There’s no time of year that puts the pep in a design lover’s step quite like the holidays. The season welcomes stylish tastemakers to showcase their impeccable decorating and hosting skills. There are endless ways to impress during the holidays from whipping up delectable cocktails to decking the halls in visions of gold and silver. However, it’s almost always the twinkling, well-decorated tree that steals the show.
The heirloom ornaments, hand-crafted ribbons, and statement-making Christmas tree toppers meticulously placed on those fluffy branches all tell a story. Challenge yourself to step outside the red-and-green box this year with a tree that perfectly reflects your own personality. Maybe it’s time to try out a monochromatic look or invest in a few extravagant tree trimmings that are sure to last a lifetime. Don’t be afraid to experiment with an entirely new Christmas tree theme—you may be surprised by the types of decorations that you end up falling for. Just remember that, as with all forms of decorating, it's about the memories you make in the process that matter most.
