We’re only halfway through summer, but given how we’re kinda-sorta heading back to normal, we’re already itching to get ready for the most wonderful time of the year: the holidays.
The season is going to look a little different again due to the pandemic, but that's not going to stop us from belting out holiday songs before flannel season. Hey, we're only taking cues from stores that have started playing "All I Want For Christmas" in July.
We still have months to plan out our winter wonderland, but the most important one of them all is the Christmas tree. From classic ball ornaments reimagined in rich jewel tones to fun gnome ornaments, these 10 Christmas tree decoration kits will help you get in the holiday spirit.
Bring a bit of folklore into your house with these cute little gnome ornaments—they’ll look like they’re sitting in your tree and will fit in with the rest of your ornaments, too. Thanks to the sturdy twine, you can easily hang them along your wall, fireplace, or even a window.
Everything in this set can be used to create a Christmas wonderland. It’s basically a holiday-in-a-box, and you’ll find endless ways to decorate your space with coordinating florals, pine cones, leaves, and ornaments.
Your pet doesn’t like to be left out, so show your love with these felt ornaments. Spruce up your tree and let everyone know that your dog always has a special place in your heart.
Gold makes anything look and feel glamorous—and that extends to your tree. These glittery snowflakes are about four inches in height and come in a six-pack, so they’ll add some glitz to your tree. Or windows, or fireplace mantle, or as part of your gift wrapping—they’re endlessly versatile.
