Even the most beautifully decorated Christmas tree, complete with lights, ornaments, florals, ribbons and more, would be missing at least one other key element of the perfect design.
A Christmas tree topper.
Tree toppers for Christmas trees serve as the centerpiece, accentuating the whole theme and bringing the entire scene together.
Here at Decorator’s Warehouse, we make it easy for you to have your BEST Christmas ever, right up to the topper you put on your Christmas tree.
We do this with pre-made solutions as well as advice and insight on how to craft your own custom spray toppers.
With that, let’s take a look at the three best ways to create tree toppers for Christmas trees.
Fun and Festive Spray Toppers
Christmas sprays and picks can be carefully curated to create customized tree toppers, regardless of the theme you choose. They can be used to craft tree toppers that are both dynamic and visually appealing.
One of the easiest ways to use Christmas picks and sprays to create tree toppers is to choose 5 different styles of sprays and incorporate them together to create a lush spray topper. By adjusting the quantity based on the tree’s height and size, you can gain a custom look with a few easy steps!
This technique is arguably the most versatile, as you are limited only by the sprays and picks at your disposal, paired with your creativity. Since you can mix and match sprays, you could easily come up with hundreds of different combinations. You can also stagger the height of the sprays to create layering that adds dimension.
Three main design styles that we find particularly appealing are whimsical, elegant, and rustic, all of which you can carefully craft through the collections we have curated here on our website.
Choose 2 to 3 rustic sprays to create a tree topper for your cabin, farmhouse or woodland themed Christmas tree, shop through our Natural Elegance collection to create a refined look, or go with one of our whimsical collections, like Santa’s Sweet Shoppe or our Gingerbread collection to create a spray topper that aligns with the rest of your theme.
If you want to explore this route, make sure to check out our YouTube channel, as we have published several videos that explain in detail how to make tree toppers for Christmas trees using sprays and picks. The following are particularly helpful: Gingerbread Christmas Tree Topper Tutorial and Designer Christmas Tree: Step 1 Tree Topper.
Timeless Elegance: Angel or Star Tree Toppers
Along with our staple spray tree toppers based, angel-themed tree toppers for Christmas or star toppers are a classic option, and one that has long enjoyed a wide popularity.
Whatever the theme is that appeals to you, choosing a tree topper in the likeness of an angel, or one with an angelic theme, can add a touch of timeless elegance to nearly any tree.
Still, choosing an angel tree topper will give you a lot of flexibility, and we offer a lot of options here at Decorator’s Warehouse.
Shop through our full collections page, and take a close look through our collection of decorations, in which you will find most of our angel tree toppers.
Some top options for a wide range of different themes are our Country Angel Topper, Gold Fabric Flying Black Angel Ornament (technically an ornament but can be used as a topper), or our Lit Champagne Gold Angel Tree Topper, which is perfect for elegant themes and styles.
Sparkling Starburst and Umbrella Light Kits
Another type of tree topper for Christmas that’s been gaining a lot of popularity recently (and which doesn’t show any signs of stopping or slowing down) is a starburst topper, made with an umbrella light kit.
Umbrella light kits, which are used to make starburst toppers, add another layer of light to the tree, and serve as a sparkling focal point that gives additional intrigue and depth to the tree, not to mention another point of light to highlight the ornaments. We often integrate the spray toppers with the starburst umbrella light kit to give a gorgeous showstopper appearance!
These were very popular last year and they’re probably only going to keep getting more and more in demand as more people see them on their friends’ tree. If you’re looking for an eye-catching alternative to a conventional tree topper for Christmas, this is a great (and trendy) option.
