While putting up the Christmas tree each year is a major tradition, the way we decorate today has become anything but. People are saying goodbye to their flimsy tinsel and multicoloured lights, and instead giving a big warm welcome to bold and often themed décor.
It is OK to be afraid of change, but sometimes change might be exactly what your interior needs and deserves. EZ Living Furniture is offering some EZ tips to make the most out of themed Christmas decorations.
Start the tree-mendous season off right
In order to make the most of your theme, it is important to invest in a tree that is durable and will withstand the festive season (and the surprisingly heavy baubles ). Whether you invest in a green tree or a frosted white one, your tree will set the tone for your theme.
Theme your tree
Before you start decorating, pick a central theme that everything can be tied to. Themes don’t have to come from a colour, they can have many different sources such as shapes, patterns, symbols, and even moods. Pick a theme and stick to it.
Light it up
Start with the lights, whether you decide on warm yellow hues, multicoloured lights, or sparkling whites. Weave the lights from the top of the tree down to the bottom and work your way back up. Be sure to test the lights before you start on your baubles, as lights will be the most intricate part to redo.
Balance your baubles
Tto create the most aesthetically pleasing look, EZ Living Furniture suggests investing in three different sized baubles. This will add flair to your tree.
Theme it with a topper
To really perfect your theme, your tree topper should be the perfect finishing touch. Invest in a show stopper that you will be proud of. After all, it is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.
