Decorating Christmas trees is what we at DIY Projects are crazy about at the moment. We really want to know your ideas about seasonal interior design and home makeovers. At Christmas time we here go all bonkers about what makes the best seasonal impact where your interior decoration is concerned. We’ve found a whole lot of Christmas trees and will show you a few here to help you pick which one you think is best for your home. We prefer the minimalist method and go for decorating Christmas trees that sport only two colours, with the least amount of baubles necessary.

How about you? Look at these Christmas tree decorations and tell us which ones fit your home and personality the best. Many of these designers have gone all-out and have spent a lot of time and money to decorate their Christmas tree just right. Of course, we know you don’t have to spend a lot to achieve the best impact. You can have a perfect Christmas on a budget. After all, having lots of money is not what Christmas is about.

Decorating Christmas trees (ideas)

1. The full-to-busting decoration style

Do you just chuck all the baubles and tinsel you own on the Christmas tree and hope for the best?

2. The hide-the-green decorating style

Do you use so many large decorative items on your tree that you can no longer see the green?

3. The we-bought-too-many-christmas-decorations style

Are your tree and living room so overly decorated that your life becomes a ball of Christmas fluff?

4. The oh-my-peacock’s-gone-missing decorating style

Do you like one colour so much that you overcrowd your Christmas tree with it until it looks like a shrine to some unknown being?

5. The ‘we’ll-just-have-to-do-better-next-year decorating style

Do you go to the other extreme and leave your Christmas tree looking bare?

6. The look-who’s-just-raided-the-discount-store decorating style

Have you got so many discounted packages that you feel you simply must decorate your Christmas tree with all of them?

7. The look-how-much-rubbish-I-can-add-to-my-wall decorating style

Do you leave your visitors asking ‘why’ when they leave your house at Christmas?

8. The honey-I-made-the-kids-decorate-the-tree-this-year decorating style

Do you just let your kids get on with it and decorate the Christmas tree?

None of these Christmas tree decorating styles are wrong. You have to do what’s best for you and your family. I quite liked the minimalist one with the droopy earrings (number 8). However, I think it’s got too many of those icicles and this makes the whole tree look a bit sad – like it’s shedding tears. What do you think is the most important thing to know when decorating Christmas trees?  Have a look at our Christmas Crafts for Kids page to see some of the things your family could be getting on with during or after the holidays.
