Decorating with Christmas Trees Throughout the Home

Think outside the box and discover the joy of decorating each room with it’s own unique Christmas tree.

We’re use to having our Christmas tree in our largest room of the house, which is usually the family room. Adding Christmas trees to other rooms as well will continue the celebration and joy throughout the home.

Consider decorating a tree for each child’s room. Most bedrooms are small so a small tree could be placed on the chest or dresser. Decorate the tree with ornaments that reflect the child’s interests and use ribbons to carry out the color scheme. You can also purchase ornaments with your child’s name printed on them. That gives the tree a very special personal touch.

Very small trees placed on kitchen counter tops, the refrigerator, or cabinets dress up the kitchen, especially when placed in groups of three using different sizes. They can be dressed up with berries or small fruit picks or just sprayed with a little snow.

The dining room is the perfect place to add an additional tree; especially if Christmas is the only time it is used. This room should look especially beautiful and festive. A slender tree in the corner, a small tabletop tree placed on top of a hutch, sideboard or small table you have added for this purpose will add decorative excitement to your celebration. Make your dining room special. The entire room should sparkle with joy and excitement. A Christmas tree placed in the appropriate spot will add enchantment that is unique to this time of the year.

The entrance hall is the perfect place for a Christmas tree. It will immediately shout “Merry Christmas” to everyone who enters the front door, whether it’s you and your family or guests with whom you want to share the holidays. It should of course look very special since this is the first room your visitors see as they enter your home.

If you’re decorating on a budget, the use of ribbons and bows will go a long way in adding elegance and charm without breaking the bank. Buy the ribbon when it’s on sale and make your own bows. It’s simple to do and simply elegant. A little Christmas tree will wish you a Merry Christmas in every room. Happy Holidays and may the Lord bring happiness and peace to your home.

This will be my kids 1st X-mas of having their own trees in their room, and they are looking forward to it. My husband loves the smell of fresh pine so we’re having that in our formal living room. Since I decorate my tree with Santas, and they’re quite heavy, I have my “fake” tree in the family room. I’m kind of stumped with what to do with my guest bathroom. Any suggestions are welcome. I’ve looked for Santa towels, they are not appealing to me at all.

My family started years ago decorating the entire house. We put greenery over the kitchen door, lights on the mantle in the family room and never skip on the outside docors in the back of the house since that is the part of the house where we come in and out of the house. Small Christmas scenes set up in the bathrooms add to the decor and Christmas ambiance for anyone who enters those rooms. Never skip on Christmas!

A Christmas tree in the bathroom would be adorable decorated with little fancy soaps. Doesn’t have to be the red and green type, but decorate it with the colors of your bathroom. As an alternative why not tiny bathroom items from dollhouses tied with pretty ribbons and hung on the tree?? In other rooms, if your child is a computer wiz, why not use CD’s, old mice, and even the old “ribbon” from inside a computer to decorate, add lights and the shiny CDs will sparkle. My son had a collection of keychains he bought as souveniers everywhere we went - they are adorable as ornaments, plus you can smile as you remember all the fun times you had at each place visited. I tuck several in my own tree now (he is gone and on his own now - a grown man) But we have had several trees in the house when they were younger - each with a “personality” that reflected the decorator or the room. Have fun and BE CREATIVE!!

this is one of my favorite things to do is to decorate Christmas trees! My main tree is decorated with Birds, Bells, Angels, Christmas balls instruments, frosted riendeer, and berries. I try to stick to 2 or 3 main colors, red and white with gold. Then I have the dept. 56 Dickens Village under the tree with trains running around. For my second tree I have a miniature Hallmark tree with a very mini Christmas village all setup and a very small train set going around this tree. I’ve been collecting these mini ornaments for over 10 years so I have quite alot of them. My Kitchen tree is with of coarse baking ornaments, hallmark, and I have a nature tree with a village and last a Hallmark Fairy tree. have a very Merry and Blessed Holiday Season, Bernadette Lasorsa

I have decorated my home from top to bottom for the past forty four years and my children , grandchildren and now, our great grandchildren can’t waite to see what Grandmas done each year. They love it. I have snow scenes throughout my home and each one is different The children go from room to room to see each village. I have a tree in each room and one is decorated with all the things our children made while in school , they enjoy looking at them and remembering fun they had making them. I also used the small dolls and trucks they had as children along with pieces of their crib mobiles that once adorned their cribs. Of all the trees , this one is the one they all enjoy being around.For the last couple of years my grandchildren have been bringing me small items of theirs to place 0n the tree , It has become a real center piece not just for them but for visitors as well.
Merry Christmas everyone May God richly bless you this beautiful season.

For a personalized touch, try adding small photographs to your tree. I used some small frames that were designed for scrapbooking. I also added Christmas photographs of when my children were younger to the outside of small boxes that I use each year to wrap in. Be sure to make color copies so you don’t lose your originals.
