22 Magical Christmas Trees

Post updated October 2024

Is there anything more magical than a beautifully decorated, beautifully lit Christmas tree?

Please enjoy these 22 classic beauties I’ve curated for their beauty and inspiration. (I really struggled choosing the one for the main photo!) Some are simply adorned, and some are decorated to the hilt.

In most of these images, I also tried to incorporate wonderful examples of a tree that was fully integrated with the rest of its beautiful interior design. In other words, the tree belongs in the house it’s in.  As an aside, many of these are not credited because I could not find the original source, so if you happen to see your tree here and want credit, please let me know, and I’ll be happy to update the post and give you a nice link back to wherever you like.

 

Normally, I don’t have a tree of my own, (because I was raised Jewish and my Jewish wasband forbade it) But two years ago, it felt like the right thing to do.

 

So, I went out and got myself a pretty blue spruce and a sturdy stand. Then, I hightailed it over to Tarzhay (aka Target) and loaded up my cart with these incredibly beautiful (but cheap) ornaments. I got the little white lights and a cord with a dimmer, and voila. The first image is a tight shot of my tree. It was all in greens and gold with a touch of blue. I loved it!

 

Below are my selections for 21 more magical Christmas Trees.

 

This tree has to be one of the most exquisite Christmas trees I’ve ever seen. It truly is a work of art, featuring my fave flower– hydrangeas. I’m not even sure if there’s an evergreen underneath, but does it matter?

 

I love this tree for its simplicity and it is just the right feeling for this casual, sophisticated room.

 

The above tree is a coastal tree from Seahorse and Stripes

Here are two rather Atonal trees with a vintage-y old-fashioned feel.

 

The designer of this tree, Ashley from the blog, Cherished Bliss calls it Rustic Glam. I think that’s quite apt. Lovely tree!

 

I really do expect the Sugarplum Fairy to come flying into this scene.

 

Alright. I know what you’re thinking and I debated adding this one to my collection. but first of all, it’s a really great photo and second, it’s just so fabulously over-the-top, yet feels very much at home amongst the grandeur of this elegant French home.

 

Perfect!

 

The colors here really compliment the stone. It’s all so warm and cozy. Grab your nog and sit by the fire!

I chose this tree because it’s modern, fresh and young.

I can almost smell the fresh pine!
