Flocked Christmas Tree
See how I decorated this beautiful flocked Christmas tree! It’s one of my favorite Christmas trees to date and I love how all the different layers combined together. I’m sharing all my sources below.
For the past few years, my go to Christmas tree has always been a real, live beautiful tree. But I won’t kid you, they’re not always the best… Last year the first tree we bought for the living room died within a few weeks, after I decorated it and only a week or so into December.
I decided I didn’t want to stare at a dead Christmas tree all month, so we bought another one and I redecorated it the same way. And then, there’s obviously the clean up from the fresh trees.
By the time they go out the door once Christmas is over, they’re pretty much fried and those needles go everywhere. I decided to go with a fake one this year to save on my sanity, and bought a gorgeous flocked Christmas tree!
Flocked Christmas Tree
I’ve had my eye on a flocked Christmas tree for the past several years, but couldn’t ever pull the trigger on buying one. But since I really needed a break from the real Christmas tree (mainly the thousands of needles that go everywhere… am I right, or am I right?), I decided it was the perfect time for a change, and bought a full, heavily flocked, gorgeous 9.5′ tall Christmas tree from my local Hobby Lobby.
It was exactly what I was looking for, and I looked at a lot of trees, both online and in person. This one was the clear winner!
Love the tree? This flocked Christmas tree is similar to mine, and comes in multiple sizes!
I was in love as soon as I put it up… but it took me a good week to decide how I wanted to decorate it.
Something about green velvet and buffalo check just felt right to me, so I went to my local fabric store and bought three yards of a dark green velvet fabric and a flannel buffalo check fabric. I cut it into 4 inch strips, and that became my garland.
It was basically the best decision I made. (Remember I shared a sneak peek of the tree décor in this TGI-Friday post?)
I also really loved how the dark green pulled out the darker green elements of the flocked tree as well…
Gold and white ornaments, with plenty of frosted pine cones, completed the tree…
I love these large glittery stars. They make such a statement.

These large gold sequin ornaments are a favorite of mine too. These are similar.
Wrapping Paper Ideas
And as for wrapping the presents, I went a little bit darker than normal…
Black wrapping paper with cream and black striped ribbon is a stunning combination, as well as gold striped wrapping paper (this is a similar option), and black with dark green velvet ribbon. Trust me, I know.

I’ve already said my dining room shelves are my favorite this year (how well does the digital print tie in with my Christmas tree?), and I think this is my favorite tree too!

Love the tree, so beautiful! I bought a metal container this year to put around the bottom of our tree, but your wooden box, I want one so bad, bet that was a diy project for you and your husband! Your home is so warm and inviting! Merry Christmas ?
I just love ❤️ how all the elements around your home, I.e., the black checked stool, blanket throw , Christmas packages look so classy and they all tie into your Christmas tree theme. The black, and white and the velvet so stunning. You really put great thought into this. And it shows!!!This is truly elegant yet crisp and clean look. Amazing. Love love ? it! Happy holidays ????
Sorry if I missed it but where are your tall shelving units from? I would love one for my family room.
Thanks,
Robin

Merry Christmas my friend! I hope you and your honey have an wonderful holiday.
The tree is beautiful and I love your velvet ribbon. It’s so luxurious!
Happy Holidays ~ xo, Shan
Love your flocked tree! I was unable to find a suitable one myself. I don’t have high ceilings, so I was limited. So a settled for a lovely “snow dusted” tree, and I quite like it!
Your tree is gorgeous and so is your home!! Merry Christmas Shayna!! xoxo
I’ve seen a lot of trees on a lot of blogs this year, and yours is BY FAR my favorite! I love the dark green and buffalo check, but on a green tree it would not have looked the same. It’s so perfect on the flocked tree, and the gold ornaments are the perfect finishing touch. It’s elegant, but at the same time could be in a cozy cabin in the woods. I’ve never wanted a flocked tree before, but you’re making me think about getting one for next year! So, so perfect.
Thank you so much for sharing that! It’s very appreciated! 🙂
Stunning!
The tree is beautiful and I love your velvet ribbon. It’s so luxurious! 🙂
Love the idea of the box at the bottom of the tree but I’m not feeling the ribbon it just seems to be off and take away from the beauty. Sometimes less is more.
Thanks for the feedback, Kate. I really love how this tree came together and how the ribbon looks! That’s the beautiful thing about decorating, you get to create what works and looks best for you!
