2011 Christmas Tree Ideas

Frosted Tree
Fir, spruce or pine, a Christmas tree dredged with spray snow not only looks more rimed, but also adds a dash of silver elegance to your decor. Just embellish it with simple paper-and-glitter ornamentations in shades of cream, white and silver to complete the look. You can also use vintage metallic pieces and glitter ornaments for extra jazz.

Favor Tree
For someone who cannot afford enough space for a full size Christmas tree, getting a miniature favor tree would be an excellent bet. All you need to do is make small gift boxes from wrapping papers, stuff them with holiday treats and string them up to a Christmas tree form. Because of their small size, these favor trees would fit anywhere - from your dining tables to dressers and can be used to adorn any favorite corner of your home.

Aluminium Tree
Although nothing beats the fragrant, fresh feel of real Christmas trees, there are many who would want their Christmas tree to have as much jazz as possible. This explains why aluminum trees are a huge rage in recent times. Not only do these funky, shiny trees look stunning when decked with balls and swags, they also dazzle up the entire decor of the room-not to mention, they last for more than just one Christmas unlike a regular natural Christmas tree.

Heirloom Tree
It's surprising to see how a few readily available materials can be converted to make beautiful heirloom ornamentations for your Christmas tree. Just twist and turn wired tinsels to make dazzling stars. You can use white and silver beads to make snowflakes and soft fabrics to create ornamental globes. Even things as simple as buttons and wood can be used to embellish Christmas trees. They can also be treasured as beautiful keepsakes later on.

Cotton Ball Tree
Never mind if you don't have enough ornamentations to embellish your Christmas tree. Commonplace things such as cotton balls can easily turn your Christmas tree into a head-turner. Just get hold of a big bag of soft cotton balls and place them all over the tree to create a pure white, snowy effect.

Office Supply Tree
An office supply tree perfectly fits into your workspace ambience and, at the same time, has all the fixings for tree that belies its workplace roots. Key tags beautified with stickers, file folders cut out into ornaments and paper-clip chains hanging down the branches add the perfect touch to the office Christmas tree.
