Christmas Decoration Ideas
You can decorate in the traditional red and green palette or go for a unique look. Choosing a color scheme and theme will guide all your decor choices.
Our Blog Hop starts with Christmas tree decorating ideas.
I choose traditional colors in red and white for my Christmas room decor and tree. This color combination reminds me of candy canes. I wanted something fun and light-hearted for this year since we have had a long year at home.
For this reason, I decided to decorate our bedroom too. It is lovely to enjoy the decorations as you relax just before drifting off to sleep.

Decorated Christmas Tree
This is what our room looked like before decorating it for the holidays.
Bedroom before Christmas Decorations
I added a headboard garland, handmade sign, pillows, and a throw for Christmas.

Christmas Decoration Ideas – Tree Ornaments
I decorated my Christmas tree with simple handmade ornaments. The bulbs were painted, and then I added vinyl decals (read more about them here.) I also made the tassel and pom pom (see how here), wood bead, and felt ornaments.

I could not resist adding the fun Naughty sign (see how I made it here).

Christmas Tree Ribbon Decorating Ideas
I adore ribbon; therefore, adding it to my Christmas trees is a must. When choosing which ribbon to use, consider your color scheme and theme.
Since I am decorating with red, white, and natural wood beads, I chose a buffalo check and a burlap ribbon. I added it to the tree in a flowing vertical pattern (read more about decorating a tree with ribbon here).
Side Table Decorated for Christmas
And topped it with my favorite easy DIY bow. I chose a burlap ribbon with a candy cane style swirled edged.

Christmas DIY Room Decor
Since I love to craft and create my own decor I designed and built this tree box with Mr. Kippi at Home’s help. With my daughter, Olivia’s crafting expertise I made all the ornaments.
Farmhouse Style Christmas Tree Box and Gifts
Simple DIY holiday decor and a few purchased items transformed our bedroom into a jolly holiday bedroom.

Just for Fun
Since we are not able to attend all the usual festivities this year I thought I would add some fun activities to enjoy at home. Just for fun I am making a simple Advent Calendar from craft paper and filling the packages with my family’s favorite treats (see how to make one here).
More Christmas Decoration Ideas
When you are decorating for the holidays, you don’t have to stop at the tree Christmas. Instead, continue your theme from the front door into the dining room, kitchen, bedroom, etc.

Tami says
I always love to see what new things you’re doing. You definitely inspire me.
Patti says
Kippi, your tree is so fresh and bright. Just what we need this year. I also love the size of it. Our tree is a traditional size where the bottom is much wider than the top and it takes up so much room. Your beautiful frosted tree with all that bright red and white has me wanting to get a new tree. Beautiful job. Merry Christmas!
Kippi says
Thank you so much. I agree the pencil tree is perfect for a small space.
Merry Christmas,
Kippi
Linda says
My tree was also large until I took wire cutters and trimmed it down to this skinny size.
Ann says

Kippi says
Thank you so much for your visit. I am really enjoying having a Christmas tree in our bedroom. I wish I had done these years ago.
Merry Christmas,
