A vintage red and green inspired Christmas tree with a classic nostalgic feel for the holidays. This tree was inspired by the old vintage postcards and has accents of sparkly glass glitter, soft velvet, handmade ornaments, and more.
I love decorating Christmas trees. Some of my favorite trees have been this silver Christmas tree, this red and gold Christmas tree, or this vintage toy tree.
It is so nice to snuggle up under our Christmas tree with a cup of our favorite homemade hot chocolate with a dollop of peppermint whipped cream.
I absolutely love this this 9 ft. Christmas tree. All of my Christmas sources are linked here. Many of the ornaments have been in my collection for years.
It is fun to collect and invest in the more neutral pieces which I use every year. Then, I change out the ribbon from time to time to create a different look, always keeping the neutral ornament base.
How to Create a Red and Green Christmas Tree
I love this rich red and green together. It is such a festive and stunning combination. I added layers to the tree in the following order:
- beaded garland
- Free printable Merry Christmas banners
- Free Printable Tree Topper (DIY with glitter glass)
- large ornaments
- medium ornaments
- ribbon
- candles
- more medium ornaments, glass glitter birds, and village houses to fill in the holes
Coordinating Red and Green Wrapping Paper
I used coordinating red and green wrapping paper with velvet ribbons under the tree. I like to keep all of my boxes from packages we receive in the mail to wrap presents with too.
It is more interesting to have a variety of different sizes and shapes than just the traditional one-size-fits-all boxes from the store.
I also like to use cute coordinating tags or cut outs on top of my presents.
Next up: I will need to give this little mantel some Christmas love. I haven't decided if I am going to keep it simple or add garland yet. But there will definitely be candles!
