1. Choosing a style and color scheme

Before you start decorating, decide on the style of your tree. It can be a classic option with red and gold balls, a minimalist monochrome, natural motifs with wooden and textile decorations, or a bright mix of colors. By choosing one or two main color schemes, you will create a harmonious image.

2. The basis: garlands

Garlands are the basic element of decoration. Start with them to avoid confusion. Distribute the lights evenly throughout the tree, moving from top to bottom. You can choose garlands with warm light for coziness or multi-colored ones for a more cheerful atmosphere.

3. Distribution of toys

Hang the toys gradually, starting with the largest ones. Place them closer to the center of the tree to create depth. Place medium and small decorations closer to the edges. Don't forget to add textures: balls, figurines, snowflakes, ribbons - all this will help make the tree more voluminous.

4. DIY decorations

Nothing adds warmth like handmade toys. These can be paper snowflakes, knitted stars, dried orange slices or gingerbread. Such decorations will fill the house with individuality and coziness.

5. The final chord: the top

Choose a spectacular top - a star, an angel or something unusual, for example, a large bow. This will become a symbolic completion of the composition.

6. Atmosphere details

You can put presents, artificial snow or a blanket under the tree to create a winter fairy tale. Scented candles with the scent of pine, cinnamon or vanilla will enhance the festive mood.

Helpful tips:

If you have small children or pets at home, choose unbreakable toys.

Do not overload the tree with too many decorations, so that it does not look chaotic.

Add personal elements: family photos, toys that bring back special memories for you.
