Artificial Christmas Trees
Here’s some expert advice on how to decorate with Balsam Hill Christmas trees. Choose one for your holiday centerpiece or create charming Christmas tree clusters.

It is always a day of excitement when a big cardboard box, with the Balsam Hill brand stamped on the outside, is delivered to my doorstep. One of my favorite products ever to arrive was their incredibly realistic Fraser Fir tree.
When they say that it “recreates the shape, color, and fullness of its natural counterpart with breathtaking accuracy” they aren’t exaggerating! I put this tree up in October last year, and decorated it with some of Balsam Hill’s brilliant ornaments, bright berry picks, and ravishing ribbons… It was a sight to behold! Only when it remained fresh and upright well into December did folks start questioning if it was a natural tree. They were absolutely shocked to find that it was a fairy-tale faux.
I loved it so much, I left it up and twinkling away in the living room through the month of January. It provided much needed light and levity through our darkest month. Now that we’re returning indoors to wait out the winter, I’m looking forward to finding my old friend, Fraser, and getting reacquainted!

A favorite is grouping several trees together to create a charming ‘forest’. These Snowfall Downswept Trees look like they are covered in freshly fallen snow. They come in several sizes, are narrow enough to tuck anywhere and they are big on charm. I love placing 3 or more different sized trees together to create a snowy magic filled forest that can be enjoyed all winter.

Artificial Christmas Foliage
A pre-decorated Christmas wreath or garland lets you showcase your unique holiday theme in other areas of your home. They can transform any space in minutes. On the other hand, undecorated greenery gives you more decorating possibilities all year long.

I love the vibe of this Christmas wreath because of its airy feel. The red berries remind me that Christmas is around the corner. The pinecones give this wreath a true wintery feeling. This Farmhouse Collection resonates with me because it’s rustic and takes me back to my Midwest roots during Christmastime. It universally fits within everyone’s Christmas needs.

The Red Berry BH Frosted Fraser Fir Garland complements my flocked tree and has this remarkable way of bringing the magical feel of a snowy day in the forest to the interior of your home.

During the holiday season, I like to mix everyday décor with holiday décor, that is why I love the Outdoor Cypress Spiral Topiary set. These are quintessential classic front door bookends that bring a polished elegance to any threshold. For the holidays, you can tuck in some stunning holiday picks or cascade Balsam Hill’s Biltmore tree ribbon to create a decadent nostalgic Christmas look that will bring warmth to all your holiday guests. Each topiary comes with warm LED lights and a convenient battery pack so you can light up your porch with one click. Once the season is over, your Outdoor Cypress Spiral Topiary set can remain a figurehead on the porch all year long, no storage necessary!

I chose to get the Decorated Glass Finial Ornament Set in the color Ivory, because it is a timeless and elegant ornament set that I see myself using year after year. What really caught my eye were the intricate details and I’m all about details! The beaded designs are just so exquisite and of high quality. I also love the fact that the ornaments are substantial in size, which helps to fill in my tree to give it a beautiful and elegant look!

I love the antique look of the green ornaments! I love all things old and I love to incorporate antique or older looking items along with new items in my home. These will be perfect on any of my trees for Christmas and I’m so excited to incorporate them on a Christmas tree or just use them in a bowl on a table! They are gorgeous!
