Christmas Home Decor: Christmas Tree Baubles

I am sure that most have already kitted out the Christmas tree but generally Christmas home decor is starting around the 8th of December, and I think that nobody is following the old tradition of starting to decor the Christmas tree on the 24th of December as we have seen in various old films. So I have picked few lovely baubles which can be the whole theme for your tree or just add a new bauble each year to have a trendy and mismatched tree where you have something new every Christmas.

Ho ho ho ho, let's start with this set of 2 baubles by Next with tinsel effect depicting Santa Claus' belly. The baubles have a 10 cm diameter and they are lovely and sparkly. Don't confine them just  to the tree but you can hang them as a decoration on your door handles. www.next.co.uk

 Unicorns are a fixed presence on anything so I believe that a herd of them would be perfect on your Christmas Tree. This one can be found at Tesco and you can buy it online. It is made of wood with lilac glitter, so as well as a tree decoration you can use it to decorate your gifts parcels. www.tesco.com

The shop at the V&A has got a selection of Christmas decorations that are truly beautiful. This little display shows some exclusive decorations by artists like Laura Bird or Kinska and they are  hand painted on hand made ceramic. Remember that by buying anything in any museum support the institution. www.vam.ac.uk

In order to catch some light on your tree, add few of this Lux Multicolour Bobble bauble from Waitrose. With all its colours it will match any colour theme on your tree. Just add a few at regular spots, in between the other baubles. www.waitrose.com

This gold foil bauble by Dobbies Garden Centres is gorgeous and give sparkle to your tree. Or why not by a few and adorn your fire place mantelpiece or hanging on a tinsel over a door frame. I believe it is going to be quite the best seller so order it as soon as possible. www.dobbies.com

If you know someone who had a baby, or you had a baby, this sweet Baby Pram embroidered decoration by Fortnum & Mason will be one of those that will be cherished forever. The decoration is hand made using the "zardosi" technique, that means " sewing with gold". www.fortnumandmason.com

I am sure that any kid or Dino lover will be pleased to see peeking from the Christmas tree branches a knitted T-Rex bauble from the Natural History Museum. You can even buy the whole set of 4 comprising a Triceratop, a Diplodocus and a Wolly Mammouth. Buying from a museum shop help to maintain the entrance free and also buying one of these knitted decoration, a part of the profit goes towards setting up pre schools in Bangladesh. www.nhmshop.co.uk
