These Over-the-Top Christmas Trees Are #HolidayGoals

As much as we love glistening wreaths, lush garlands, and cozy knit stockings, Christmas trees take the fruitcake when it comes to holiday decor. And while there are endless options for designing them, lately it seems like there’s one trend that’s everywhere: colorful, retro evergreens. This season it’s *all* about faux trees draped in kitschy and bright-hued ornaments. The result is an over-the-top, yet oh-so-cheerful display that brings us back to our childhood days.

Working on lots of holiday content over here, and this Pom Pom tree is still my favorite creation from last year! ⁣ ⁣ #sugarandclothloves #sugarandclothstudio #smmakelifebeautiful #bhghome #bhgcelebrate #bhgholiday #marthastewartliving #myhousebeautiful #hgtvhome #theeverygirlathome #abmholidayspirit #christmasdecorating #christmasideas #showemyourstyled #pinteresting #pinterestinspired #igerstx #texasmonthly #houstonblogger #homedecorblogger #holidayhome #candyminimal #colorlovers #midmod #midcenturydecor #christmastreedecorating #pompoms #handmademodernhome #sodomino #mydomaine

1. @sugarandcloth: We’re pretty sure this is the best holiday use for pom-poms that we’ve seen (other than, maybe, present toppers to go under the tree).

My very merry pink and green @treetopia tree is live on the blog! (#ad) I took inspiration from Wes Anderson movies to create this tree with its unique color scheme and all its quirky details. Like my little owl friend there. 😉 Be sure to check out my blog for all the other bloggers participating in the @treetopia All for you tree decorating blog hop. And get the details on the HUGE Black Friday and cyber Monday sale Treetopia is having on all their trees this week! #TreetopiaAllForYou #TreetopiaBlackFridaySale #TreetopiaCyberMondaySale #TreetopiaChristmasSale

Sunday morning view. 💕🎄✨ y’all, it’s December! How did that happen?! My (Cort’s) most favorite month of the year besides June, my birthday month. 😜 spending this morning cozied up in my Christmas pj’s, fire going, a hot cup of coffee. ☕️ Addressing holiday cards and maybe putting together a gingerbread house before going to an ornament party tonight! It is just the most magical/nostalgic time of the year and we’re trying to squeeze in as many Christmas activities as we can! ❤️🎀 #awhimsyhome #awhimsyholiday

4. @awhimsywonderland: A bold hue sets a happy tone in this room. To nail the look, go light on the accents to really let those branches shine.

5. @tinylittlepads: This tree is a kids’ playroom dream. The best part? You can swap their toys for ornaments to make it happen.

Happy Friday, friends! It's my turn today to share my colorful vintage #Christmas tree for the #MyHomeStyleBlogHop! 🎄 All of my vintage 50s/60s ornaments were passed down from my grandparents, and I could honestly stare at this Christmas setup all day 😍 Check out more gorgeous tree inspo from @pmqfortwo @kim_madeinaday @dalydigs @jenniferperkins today!

6. @clubcrafted: Between the bottlebrush mantle trees and the oversized ornaments, we can’t get enough of this scene.

7. @hotpinkpineapples: It’s all in the details. A technicolored tree skirt and funky wrapping paper (and a precious furry friend!) will go a long way against this setting.
