It&#8217;s easy to do the same thing year after year, recycling the same decorations and using the same tired old tinsel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Well, this post will give you a few ideas on how to think outside the box when it c0mes to decorating your tree, and will inspire you to do something a little different and more original&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Ombre<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I love this idea of creating an ombre look with your decorations, slowly changing the gradient to give the impression of dip-dyed decorating. Perhaps this is something you could even do with the decorations you already have.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/ombre.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2861\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/ombre.jpg\" alt=\"Ombre tree\" width=\"530\" height=\"1424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/ombre.jpg 736w, https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/ombre-186x500.jpg 186w, https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/ombre-381x1024.jpg 381w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.inspiredbycharm.com\/2013\/12\/a-colorful-christmas-tree-treetopia-hump-day-giveaway.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Stick to a theme<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You don&#8217;t have to decorate your Christmas tree in conventional colours &#8211; just pick one and stick to it. I like blue because it&#8217;s not stereotypical but it&#8217;s just festive enough.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/blue.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2862\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/blue.jpg\" alt=\"blue tree\" width=\"491\" height=\"737\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/blue.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/blue-333x500.jpg 333w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 491px) 100vw, 491px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/sosimplystephanie.hubpages.com\/hub\/criss-cross-ribbon-christmas-tree\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Christmas teepee<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Who needs a tree when you can get a teepee? I love how simple this idea is. Just grab some old bits of wood and cut them into the same lengths. It doesn&#8217;t need to be as tall as this, but I think the height of this &#8216;treepee&#8217; is perfect. Then decorate with fairylights and tinsel, and you&#8217;ve got your very own unique Christmas ornament.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/teepee.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2863\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/teepee.jpg\" alt=\"Christmas teepee\" width=\"518\" height=\"778\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/teepee.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/teepee-333x500.jpg 333w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 518px) 100vw, 518px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.purehome.com\/blog\/2012\/10-unique-christmas-tree-decorating-ideas\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Log tree<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is really thinking outside the box, and it&#8217;s the perfect fit for a modern home. The sticks all slot together to make a gorgeous shape, and the white and silver decorations add to the contemporary look.
