Christmas Tree Decorating Inspiration: Nature's Bounty
Posted by Fortunoff Backyard Store
Minimal doesn't mean boring.
Red and green are Christmas color staples, but what if you pared those hues down? Our Christmas tree designers and holiday merchandise buyers asked themselves the same question. The result is our Nature's Bounty Christmas tree design. It features a return to more natural materials and tones and reminds us that reconnecting with our roots can inspire Christmas and visual magic.
Although some items are available online, every product we use to create our Nature's Bounty tree design can be found in a Winter Wonderland Showroom near you. These locations can be found in the following states:

Now that you know where to shop, let's get into what makes Nature's Bounty a timeless Christmas tree decoration style.
The Style Details:
Our Nature's Bounty Christmas tree design takes inspiration from evergreen forests. You can find glittering poinsettias and pinecones in neutral shades, wooden garlands, and woodland creatures. It's simple and sophisticated with rustic-style elements that make it visually appealing without overpowering a room. This tree design is composed, not quiet.
Hues Who:
Neutrals are the main colors at play in this design, but they take many shades and shapes. A subdued gold glitters in the ornaments and ribbon garland, allowing the evergreen of the tree to shine.
The gold transitions to a metallic silver that plays well with the wood accents. We recommend highlighting these features with warm white Christmas lights and simple wrapping paper.
What Stands Out:
Our Nature's Bounty tree design lets natural materials shine. Pinecones and uniquely shaped Christmas baubles provide interesting organic shapes that catch the eye. The burlap-inspired gold bows found throughout the tree pair perfectly with the wooden beads that wrap around it.
There is an element of luxury without straying too far from nature. This is best seen in the treestand. The combination of metal and raw wood adds a farmhouse touch to the rest of the decor, creating an elegant forest escape in your own home.
DID YOU KNOW:
Christmas trees used to be decorated with scraps of fabric and toys made out of pinecones, twigs, and other objects from nature.
