The History of Artificial Trees: From Wires and Feathers to High-tech Materials
When you think of how you want to decorate your artificial christmas tree, what are some of the themes that come to mind? For most people, they may think of traditional themes that you see every Christmas. Or maybe they think about how they have always decorated their Christmas tree. The key to changing how you want to decorate your home this Christmas season is to really start with your tree. When you use a different theme with your artificial tree, this is going to affect every other aspect of your decorating throughout your home.
So, how about thinking about a new theme that is going to be bright and airy? One that is going to be beautiful, yet not the traditional red and green? If you are all about this for your artificial tree, then you will want to consider a fairy tale theme!
How can you make this theme come to life with your artificial tree?
Here are some ideas that you can use!
1. The fairy tale theme is going to look best with a white artificial tree or one that is flocked. The white of these is going to make the colors pop better than an artificial tree that is all green.
2. You are going to want to stick with pastel colors. With the fairy tale theme think of colors that make you smile, that are delicate, yet beautiful. Some examples of colors to use include light blue or frosted blue, peach, sea foam green, baby pink, pale yellow, and the like. You can mix and match these colors to make a unique look for your individual tree.
3. Find bird ornaments to put onto branches on these trees. After all, almost every fairy tale will have a bird that is somehow flying around the main character. Many people put these throughout the tree in various colors to make the theme come to life.
4. Use a soft pastel garland ribbon to really make the elegance of this tree come to life.
5. Think of the texture of the bulb ornaments that you are using. You will find that anything that has some glitter on it or even a matte finish is going to go well with this theme.
6. White lights are really going to make this tree theme come to life. It will add that glow and sparkle that you would expect with a fairy tale theme.
7. Get poinsettia flowers in pastel colors that look as though they are dusted with snow to hang on the tree to add definition to the tree decor.
Is a fairy tale theme something that is going to work for you? If you love pastel colors and making a soft statement in how you decorate, then you will find that this theme is one that may fit in great with your personality. In addition, if you have small girls in your family that love Princesses, chances are they are going to love this theme as well and will be excited to help with bringing this theme to life!
