Christmas 2020 | A Reindeer Themed Christmas Tree

Welcome to the 4th annual Christmas tree blog hop ! I can’t believe it is time to start sharing our Christmas trees again! I can not wait to show you my Reindeer Christmas Tree that I have for this years themed Christmas tree!

Reindeer Christmas Tree Inspiration

The inspiration for my Christmas tree came from last years DIY Reindeer Christmas Sign. I loved it so much that I decided to theme this years Christmas decor around it!

Putting this tree together turned out to be quite the ordeal, all of which was of my own making. I started out with last years tree, and had it almost fully decorated in my Reindeer theme but it just didn’t look right and I just wasn’t feeling it at all. Normally I get more and more excited about my Christmas tree as I get closer to finishing it. I had zero excitement about this tree. It just felt gappy and off. So I walked away from the tree to see if that would help and it didn’t so after going back and forth for a few days I decided to order a new tree. I searched around and ultimately decided on this one. So I undecorated my old tree and set up the new tree to decorate. What I failed to do was to read through the full dimensions of the tree. I made sure I had the right height for our living room, but I didn’t read much past that. Well the bottom of the tree is not as wide as I thought it would be! That’s what I get for not reading though the listing! Looks like I will just have to buy another new tree for next year! Oh darn! LOL Don’t worry this one will not go to waste! I am planning on putting this one in our bedroom next Christmas!

I really do love the look of this tree, it has beautiful real tip branches and was a breeze to put together! It is also my first pre-lit tree! Thank goodness for that! No string lights to deal with!

Reindeer Christmas Tree Details

Let’s get to the details of this Reindeer themed Christmas tree. When I was planning out my Reindeer themed tree there were a few things that I knew were going to be must haves for my tree,

• Reindeer ornaments
• Reindeer looking fur
• Jingle Bells / Sleigh Bells
• Antlers
• Overall woodsy feel to the tree

I didn’t have a color scheme in mind when I planned my tree, but as I began decorating it a Gold, Brown and Cream colored Christmas tree was created. First on my tree must haves was reindeer ornaments. Because you can’t have a reindeer themed Christmas tree without reindeer ornaments! I found these ones at a local boutique store in my town. I liked that they looked like they were carved from wood – which totally adds to my woodsy feel to the tree.

I really wanted some reindeer looking fur ribbon to put on my themed Christmas tree but I couldn’t find any. What I did find was this adorable reindeer ribbon at Joann Fabrics as well as these Fur star ornaments! They both were perfect for my tree! I used 2 spools of ribbon on the tree and had some left over. Since the fur star ornaments were just one style of the themed ornaments for my tree I bought 6 of them.

I also bought a new neutral cranberry bead garland for my tree from Walmart. My tree used 3 wood bead garlands.

Next on my list were bells. When I think of Reindeer I think of sleigh bells too. I really wanted some rustic vintage looking bells to add to my Christmas tree. I found these ones and they were perfect for my tree! They have a beautiful aged patina to them and they came in a package of 12!

The next think on my list were antlers. My plan was to add my real deer antlers as ornaments on my tree, except when I went to go get them I couldn’t remember where I had stored them! I have looked high and low and every nook and cranny of my decor storage and they are nowhere to be found. I am so bummed because it was one of my main ideas for my tree! I am going to continue searching for them and *when* – thinking positive thoughts here – I find them I will take some new pictures of my tree and add them! I really think it will take the tree to the next level! So say a prayer I find them soon and don’t have to keep my tree up until Easter or something!

Since I didn’t have my real antlers *womp womp* I added 2 made over plastic antler ornaments to the top of my tree along with some tree branches that I had on hand.

To fill in the tree some more I added my favorite birch bark ornaments, an assortment of brown ornaments, large gold and iced branch ornaments all of which I bought from the At Home store!

I would love to decorate under my tree with a bunch of beautifully wrapped presents but I have a curious little boy who would be tempted to unwrap them. Even knowing that they are fake, he would unwrap them. So I added just one little stack of wrapped presents and other Christmas decor items to fill the bottom of my tree. The Dec 25 sign is something new that I bought this year to add to my decorations.

I had so much fun creating and decorating my Reindeer Christmas tree and I hope that you loved it too! I will be sharing the rest of my Christmas decor soon! I have my Reindeer themed Living room, my Christmas Dining Room as well as my White Cottage Christmas Sunroom to share! Until then check out the other amazing Christmas Trees below to put you in that Christmas spirit mood!
