Deck the Tree: Four Magical Christmas Themes for 2024

Deck the Tree: Four Magical Christmas Themes for 2024

This Christmas, I’m breaking free from my usual minimalist holiday décor and going ALL IN on a themed tree! Did I go a little extra and create some moodboards to help us decide? Yes. Yes I did. But there’s something so exciting about picking a theme—it’s like designing a tiny world of festive magic right in your living room. After some brainstorming, I’ve landed on four themes to bring my Christmas tree visions to life: Sugar Plum Speakeasy, Celestial Goddess, Woodland Cottage, and Warm Gingerbread.

Each theme offers it’s own vibe, a fresh palette, and endless DIY opportunities to make every detail special. From vintage-inspired baubles for the speakeasy feel to celestial ornaments that shimmer like stardust, I’m all about getting creative and keeping it budget-friendly. Join me on Instagram @absolutely.alonda to see which theme I chose for this year and as I share tips, tricks, and inspiration for making your holiday décor dreams come true—because this year, we’re going all in!

And if you fall in love with a theme then I have rounded up items that correspond with each one that you can shop on my LTK here.

Sugar Plum Speakeasy: Moody, Vintage, Luxurious, Art Deco
