How to Decorate Your Pop-Up Christmas Tree

Make decorating for Christmas effortless with our Pop-Up Christmas Trees, flat to standing in just a few simple steps.

Find out how to set up your pop up tree in just a few simple steps.

Step 1: Choose your Christmas Theme

Before you start decorating, pick a theme to make the tree look as cohesive and complete as possible. Conveniently, we have already done some of the work for you. Get inspired by our Christmas Lookbook, featuring 3 beautiful styles.

Step 2: Find the Perfect Spot

The Christmas tree tends to be the key decorative feature of the festive season, so the location and position of the tree is important. To start, look at the dimensions of the tree and work out how much room you will need. You also want to ensure the tree is noticed, so consider making it the focal point of the room. Once you’ve added your stunning decorations, you will want to give it the limelight it deserves!

Step 3: Pop it up!

The Pop-Up Tree with LED lights is cone-shaped and available in 2 sizes; the 120cm pop up tree and 210cm pop up tree. Simply pull up in one piece and lock in place – it’s that simple. At the end of the season, this tree packs down flat for easy storage throughout the year.

The slim Pop-Up Tree looks like a regular Christmas tree but is easier to set up. 180cm tall and split into 2 sections, simply set up the internal stand, pull up the rings, lock them in place, then add your top section. Once the branches are spread out, add on your regular decorations.

Step 4: Christmas Lights

While our slim pop-up tree can be decorated with regular Christmas lights, our cone-shaped Pop-Up Christmas tree comes complete with built in LED lights. Flat to standing in five minutes, all you need to do is plug it in and all the hard work is done for you.

Step 5: Christmas Baubles and Tree Decorations

Now for the fun part… it’s time to hang the decorations! How much or little you use to cover the tree is completely up to you. To showcase your key pieces, place them on the tree first in the prime positions. The next step is to hang your larger decorations evenly throughout the tree, working your way down to the medium and finally the smaller decorations.

Our slim tree can be decorated with standard decorations, while our cone shaped pop up works best with lightweight, flat ornaments and clip on decorations. Our ornament hooks come in handy when hanging decorations that don’t already have clips.

Step 6: Add your Christmas Tree Topper

Would your Christmas Tree really feel complete without a finisher on top? The key to a perfect tree topper is to ensure it fits the theme and scale of the rest of the tree. Adding an eye-catching yet cohesive topper is a stunning way to finish off the look.

Step 7: Time for the Presents!

Christmas is of course about family and loved ones, but we’d be lying if we said we weren’t excited about the present part too! If you’re super prepared this year and already have some presents, it’s time to place them under the tree.
