The Chocolate and Gold Tree

This is probably the most fashionable of the christmas tree themes described here. It best suitable on the artificial tree. In this case, the color scheme is red,brown.It looks best adding the twinkling light on it. Walnuts, pinecones and chocolates wrapped in foil can be used to decorate this tree. Then tie large transclucent gold and red ribbons, using the kind of ribbon that has bendable wire inside onto the ends of the trees. The ultimate effect of this tree should be very abundant and luxuriant.

The New Baby Tree

This is a great tree to honor how happy you are about the new arrival in your home if you are celebrating the birth of a child or a child's first birthday.You could consider buying a small blue or pink artificial tree even though there are many kinds of trees you can choose. This is a good idea so any toddlers or infants around can't get ahold of any shed needles. You don't have to worry about them yanking lights and pulling the whole thing downif you buy prelit artificial trees. You might want to opt for a small ceramic christmas tree until they are old enough not to grab at decorations and xmas tree limbsIf you have lots of toddlers around .

On pink or blue artificial trees, mint green, lavender and blue frosted glass christmas balls look particularly nice . You can also decorate these trees with baby toys, baby bottles filled with candy, teddy bears, baby booties and socks. Little stuffed animals look great on this type of tree and a larger teddy bear or soft plush toy makes a great tree topper. you might want to consider topping the tree with a doll dressed as an angel if the baby is a girl.

The Sea Side Tree

This most specialchristmases tree themes looks best on artificial trees in aqua or light blue colors. At the same timeit would also suit any tree that has a color such as light orange or pink.As the name mentioned, this tree is decorated with treasures from the sea including seashells, sea horses, and ornaments made from aquarium decorations (treasure chests, coins and corals.) These sea treatures have their different functions in the decoration.Strings of pearls can be used as a garland and novelty lights shaped like seashells or even fish can be strung to enhance the aquatic theme.

The Snow and Ice Tree

As it is white and icy blue instead of the more familiar red and green this is one of the most unusual of christmas tree themes.First decorate it with a garland of novelty lights shaped like icicles or snowflakes. In order to making your tree looks like dripping with frozen, glittering shape your decorations should be made of see through plastic or crystal . instead of cotton battenor cotton shreddings to pretnd tree-branching heavy with snow. You can even mound this cotton at the ends of the bough so it looks like it has been cluster there.

Your final step is to spray the whole thing down generously with flocking. Flocking is snowflake that comes from an aerosol can. You can spray this stuff on any kind of tree including artificial prelit christmas trees and ceramic trees to make them look frostier.

This treatment is not only stunning on a white artificial tree but it also looks great on red, purple, blue or other artificial trees because all of the white provides a nice contrast to the tree's original color.
