A snowy Christmas tree is one of those trends that just won't go away! They’re a much-loved Christmas tree with families during the festive season and are a wonderful way to bring some winter warmth into your home.

In this guide, we’ll cover some of the best snowy Christmas tree decoration ideas so you can create your own winter wonderland. 

Why choose a snowy Christmas tree over a traditional Christmas tree?

A snowy Christmas tree can make the perfect addition to any home, whether big or small, traditional or modern. This is just one reason why they are so popular.

There's also something a bit different about them that can make your Christmas decor stand out compared to more traditional Christmas trees.

These frosted and flocked Christmas trees give beautiful Nordic and Scandi vibes. Alongside this, you can make them as minimal or glitzy and glamorous as you like. There is nothing like bringing the outdoors inside with a snow-covered Christmas tree.

What is the difference between a snowy tree and a white Christmas tree?

There can be some confusion over whether snowy and white Christmas trees are the same. The answer is: they aren't!

A snowy Christmas tree is a specially treated artificial Christmas tree that has been flocked to give the impression the tree has just been covered in beautiful, crisp, newly fallen snow.

However, a white Christmas tree is made using white branches and tips instead of the usual green colours.

How to decorate a snowy Christmas tree

Here at Christmas Tree World, we firmly believe that a Christmas tree should be decorated to your taste and no one else's!

However, if you are unsure about what you want your tree to look like or what theme to go for, we've provided a handy guide below to get your creative juices flowing.

Create a colour palette

Deciding what colours you want to add to your snowy Christmas tree can go a long way in bringing the biggest festive punch to your home.

Pinks

The pink Christmas tree look has taken off in the last few years, with more and more UK households considering a bright, bold statement for their tree.

There are various shades of pink you can opt for, from subtle baby pink to striking hot pink, both of which embrace white or snowy Christmas trees. Coupled with the cool tones of a snowy tree, pink decorations can go a long way to creating a beautiful, modern twist to your festive Christmas tree decorations.

Black

Many people shy away from black accessories when decorating their Christmas tree, but they can give a tree an ethereal, almost otherworldly charm. After all, black and white Christmas baubles are a classic, timeless combination.

This colour palette would look beautiful in a more minimalist room or an entrance hall. It would undoubtedly get guests talking - in a good way, of course!

Golds

Gold ornaments are one of the most popular traditional holiday decors. While it looks impressive on a green Christmas tree, they can take the look of a snowy Christmas tree to a whole new level.

You might even want to continue the gold and white theme throughout the rest of the room where your tree sits or the whole house. We promise you won't regret it!

Tree decoration ideas

Let your artistic talents flow to what type of Christmas tree decorations you want to put on your tree. Think about the shapes and sizes that best enhance your artificial tree to create the perfect indoor winter wonderland.

Pinecones make brilliant Christmas tree decorations on just about any tree, but they come into their own on a flocked tree, adding sophistication and a touch of understated glamour. Add white Christmas tree lights and a sprinkling of gold decorations such as bells or baubles, and the look is complete!

Keep it natural

An increasingly popular trend for a flocked tree has a minimalist vibe with understated Christmas tree decorations and ornaments to give your festive home decor a toned-down, more natural visual appeal that's still packed with holiday cheer.

You can add berries, greenery, wood, twigs, or anything you can think of to bring the outside in to top off your winter wonderland. It gives a wonderful real tree feel without the hassle of owning a real tree.

You could almost believe you are in your very own Nordic cabin with a tree such as this!

Jazz it up

If subtle isn't your idea of a Christmas tree, that's fine too! After all, who doesn't love a bit of fun when it comes to the festive period? And a flocked Christmas tree needn't be any different.

Add glittering baubles, multi-coloured tinsel, bells, miniature Christmas wreaths, figurines, and toys; the list is endless.

Be individualistic and have your tree the exact way YOU want it!

A few things to consider with a snowy Christmas tree

If you haven't yet purchased your snowy Christmas tree from Christmas Tree World, here are two key points you should consider first.

Shape

Do you want a smaller tree, a rounder tree, or perhaps a slim Christmas tree? The shape can heavily impact the feel of your snowy Christmas tree and overall home decor, so be mindful that not all trees are the same in their shape.

Size and space

Before you purchase any brand new Christmas tree, it's essential to know that it's going to fit. We strongly recommend that you measure both the floor space and height before you order your new tree.

Just ensure you leave enough room for a tree topper! Many measure forgetting that all-important Christmas tree fairy or star that sits proudly on their tree each year.

At Christmas Tree World, choosing a Christmas tree height is easy with our vast range, from mini or small Christmas trees to 20ft Christmas trees and beyond!
