Once the lights are in order, Kelly recommends settling on two colourways to anchor your Christmas tree in a theme. ‘For me, design is always important so it’s great to have a theme, otherwise, it can look like a fairground,’ she explains.
If you’re torn on the theme to choose for your tree, Kelly’s ceramic acorn and pinecone baubles will add a sophisticated edge to your tree.

With a theme and colour scheme in place, then you can weave in any vintage or family favourite decorations, balanced across the tree. When placing decorations on the tree, Kelly explains that proportion is key. ‘Always have small decorations at the top so it is balanced out,’ she says.

Once your best Christmas decorations are in place you might think you’re finished, however, there’s one step left – the presents. ‘The wrapping of the presents is important too to complete your look,’ says Kelly.
Extending your Christmas tree colour scheme extends to your gift wrapping ideas is the ultimate finishing touch that is going to make your tree the envy of Instagram.
