Imagine your Christmas tree blooming in winter like a magical garden under the glow of fairy lights.
Oversized flowers perched on branches create a dreamy effect, as though nature herself decided to join your holiday celebrations.
Each petal opens like a snowy whisper, reminding you that beauty can be bold and delicate all at once.
Materials Needed
- 1 artificial or real Christmas tree (6-7 ft works well)
- 5-7 oversized faux flowers (12-16” diameter)
- 1-2 strings of warm white LED lights (100 bulbs each)
- Floral wire (20-gauge, 10 ft roll)
- Wire cutters
- Tree collar or woven basket base (optional, 20-24” diameter)
Step-by-step Guide
Step 1: Assemble and fluff your Christmas tree, making sure branches are spread evenly for a full look.
Step 2: Wrap the LED lights around the tree, starting at the base and moving upward. Then tuck them slightly into branches so the glow feels natural.
Step 3: Position your oversized flowers evenly across the tree.
You can place larger blooms toward the middle and bottom, with smaller ones higher up for balance.
Step 4: Use floral wire to secure each flower to the branches. Twist tightly, then tuck the ends of the wire back into the foliage so they aren’t visible.
Step 5: Step back and adjust placement until the flowers feel balanced and harmonious with the lights.
Next, add a basket base or tree collar for a polished finish.
Note:
If you can’t find ready-made oversized flowers, try crafting your own with crepe paper or fabric petals, it’s a fun DIY project that lets you customize colors to your theme.
