Choosing the Ideal Christmas Tree Toppers & Tree Skirts
With so many different Christmas tree toppers and tree skirts available, choosing the ideal one for your tree is really about looking at the key features and design style of each one. As you browse, consider:
- Overall Style & Color Scheme: As with all types of home decor, we typically go with a specific color scheme and design style around the holidays. Do you feature a lot of silver, gold, black and white or red in your home during the holidays? Choose items that will coordinate with the pieces you already have and love. It's also a good idea to account for the wall color and existing furnishings in the room to make sure the pieces you choose will blend well with your decor.
- Special Features: Especially when it comes to tree toppers, there are often special features that set some designs apart from the rest. Traditional tree toppers feature a cone or coil support and a bold star shape. When you're looking for something different, consider an angel tree topper or an electric or battery-operated tree topper featuring working lights or even some degree of movement.
Giving the Gift of Holiday Decor
Holiday decor essentials don't just make a great addition to your own collection, they're also a fantastic gift idea for anyone you visit throughout the season. It's always a great ideal to bring a hostess gift to someone hosting a holiday event. Holiday candles and serveware make a great option, as well. You can even gift the serveware filled with your favorite seasonal dish and the recipe to match.
Keep the Christmas tree topper and tree skirts you select protected from year to year by storing them in air-tight plastic bins with plenty of bubble wrap or protective packaging. If you choose a battery-operated tree topper, make sure to remove batteries prior to storage. Once you've discovered the tree toppers and tree skirts, you'll use for your Christmas trees, continue the look by shopping for ornaments, ribbons and other decorative ways to adorn your tree.
