Boho Glam Meets Organic Modern Christmas Tree

Today, I am revealing my first-ever, flocked Christmas tree! Adorned with boho glam and organic modern ornaments, I will be showing you how to replicate the look in just a few simple steps. At the bottom of the post, you will have the opportunity to shop the look!

A Christmas tree before Thanksgiving?! Who the hell have I become?

In all seriousness though, this year I was excited to shake things up.

Breaking away from the tradition of a real tree after the one from last year barely made it to mid December (talk about an effing mess), I was excited to try my hand at a flocked variety- something I had never done!

Not only did I see this decision as novel, but also as a design challenge. You see..

My goal was to blend juxtaposing elements- earthy and blingy- to create a unique yet cohesive look.

Not only that, but I wanted to find interesting ways to “warm up” the otherwise white and “icy” tree.

Rummage Your Earthy Boho Layer First…

First on my to-do list was acquiring the pampas stems.

While I did have some natural stems I had stolen from a neighborhood entrance last year, I didn’t have it in me to be a floral thief again (not to mention deal with all the shedding mess). So, I went to World Market and Kirklands for some faux, off-white stems (you can get them here).

For a little variation in color, I also ordered some darker beige/taupe stems (you can buy here) .

*Money Saving Hack* The cost of pampas stems can really add up when you are working with a 7.5 foot tree, so I also used a cheaper alternative, peacock feathers (I got mine from Hobby Lobby), to make things feel more robust. From a distance, you really cannot tell the difference .

To beef up my “earthy layer” a little more, I then added some dried palm stems which actually I already had on hand. You can buy some here.

Bling it up…

Once I had my organic, boho layer established, it was time to add all the glam and bling.

To keep the look neutral and cohesive with my year-round color scheme, I adhered to a strict palate of black, gold and champagne gold.

*Bonus Tip* To break-up the monotony of balls and baubles, I layered in some snowflake and pine comb ornaments. Choose varied ornament shapes to keep it interesting.

Of course, no boho Christmas tree would be complete without a woven tree collar. Even better? The rattan factor adds another layer of texture into the mix.

I know I took a risk ordering a flocked tree online, but in the end, I am super happy with how it all turned out. (You can buy the same tree here)
