While Christmas has many traditions, unique Christmas tree ideas are being used to express one’s own personality. A theme tree has become the most popular idea today.
Here are some fun examples
For the patriotic person, a white tree with red and blue Christmas ornaments. Add a red, white and blue flag blanket as a tree skirt, and at the top of the tree you may want to place a small flag or perhaps an eagle.
An Elvis fan who has a collection of his 45’s may want to trim the tree by putting white ribbons through the center of the 45’s and hang them on the branches. Surely, an Elvis fan would have a doll or some other Elvis memorabilia to place on the top of the tree. Of course, the tree would have to be “blue.” As for the tree skirt, try to find a blanket or fabric which features a single guitar or several guitars.
Another great idea is to have a 1940’s Christmas tree. Trim the tree with old pictures from mom and dad’s era; old 45’s of their favorite songs; shoe ornaments reflecting that time; vintage car ornaments; and jewelry as well. For a tree skirt, you can use a lace table cloth. Atop the tree, a framed 5×7 picture of mom and dad’s favorite band leader or singer would be perfect. Now you’re really rockin’ around the Christmas tree.
There are many other unique Christmas ideas
A tree covered with white turtledoves; a tree filled with toys; a white tree adorned with gold garland and gold balls; a blue tree with silver garland and no ornaments; a musical tree with instruments of every kind; an angel tree; a candle tree as in days of old; a Muppet tree with every character from the television series; or a stuffed animal tree filled with an array of all types of small critters.
You could change your Christmas tree each year. One year the tree could be all one color; another year all toys; and still another year all Hummel ornaments. Theme trees allow you to express your creativity in many different ways.
You can still have traditional Christmas trees in your home, either in the living room or family room. However, adding a fun theme tree can be the showcase in your front window. Young or old, you’ll never run out of ideas to make your Christmas, and your Christmas tree, special for the entire family.
