Holiday season is just around the corner and, as you’d expect, we’re welcoming the most wonderful time of the year with stunning new Christmas arrivals.

We can't wait to celebrate the beauty of a summer Christmas. A time for family adventures, barbeques, festive drinks and sunshiny lunches in the back garden. Maybe even an afternoon snooze beneath a shady tree. We know now more than ever that there’s really nothing better than having time to relax with the ones you love, especially when you can have everyone together in your beautiful, bedecked home.

For us, the must-have to set the festive tone in your home is the Christmas tree. Whether it’s small or tall, green or white, real or artificial, there are genuinely thousands of ways to go about decorating your tree: from maximalist to minimal and everything in between.

If you’re stuck for ideas or wanting to try something new, here are the three Christmas tree themes we’re loving this year and how to recreate them at home using our latest range of Christmas decorations and ornaments.

Rockin' around the retro tree

Make your tree merry and bright with retro styling that truly embraces the joy and nostalgia of Christmas time. A flocked tree dusted in snow harks back to Christamases of yesteryear. While cute and kitschy decorations are now the coolest Christmas accessory, with Australian icons, flora and fauna the heroes of this colourful trend.

Styling your retro Christmas tree

Replace your traditional baubles and tinsel with quirky retro Christmas decorations sitting cheerfully on every branch. Tiny painted lobsters, ice creams, chip packets and fish pay homage to all the best bits of days gone by. Give them a modern feel by mixing in different colours and a few shiny baubles, too. This trend is a little left of centre but it will certainly add a lot of fun to your home this Christmas. Plus, the kids will love it!

A beautiful, beachy boho Christmas

We have a real love affair with the boho Christmas theme, offering maximum beauty with minimal fuss. Timber, twine and warm terracotta hues will live in harmony on our Branch Christmas Tree - an alternative option to traditional pine with a gorgeous laid-back feel that's perfect for Christmas holidays spent by the coast.

Styling your boho Christmas tree

You'll need to focus on decorations made from natural materials - including wood, dried flowers, wicker, yarn and tassels - alongside a neautral palette with hints of earthly tones. Place your decorations sparingly, giving each one it's space to shine. Finish styling your space with a gorgeous wicker wreath, dried stems, and presents wrapped neatly in white and brown paper.

Traditional and terrific

You can't go past the beauty of a traditionally styled Christmas tree to cosy around on the big day. And nothing looks quite as good as a proud evergreen festoned in twinkling lights and merry red baubles and bows. This tried-and-true theme does require some consideration, but that's not to say you can't have fun with it.

Styling you traditional Christmas tree

First, if you have a faux Christmas tree, spend time fluffing out every branch, starting with the lower limbs closest to the trunk and working up. Next, pick you colour scheme, two or three colours at most. We love the classic gold and red. Purchase you glass baubles and decorations in multiples so you can position them evenly across your tree. You don't have to fill every space, it's more important to achieve an elegant balanced look.
