Christmas Tree Ornaments

What is a Christmas Tree Ornament?

The history of Christmas tree ornaments dates back to 16th century Europe, where families hung fruit and handcrafted charms on fir trees to symbolise hope and celebration. Today that tradition thrives across Australia, from beachside homes to bush towns. A Christmas tree ornament is a ready to hang decoration placed on branches with a hook or ribbon loop. Popular styles include baubles, figurines, stars, snowflakes, jewels and icicles. You will also find native Australian animals, candy themes, novelty pieces and classic icons. Materials range from wood and metal to fabric and hard plastic. Each ornament adds colour, depth and meaning to your tree.

How to Choose the Right Ornament

Start with your tree size and shape. Large trees suit bold baubles and layered shapes. Smaller trees need lightweight pieces that will not weigh down branches. Choose two or three colours for a cohesive look or mix tones for a bold and daring style. Blend matte with gloss and smooth with textured finishes for visual interest. Hanging ornaments are easy to place and rearrange, so you can adjust your layout in minutes. They are gentle on branches and many options are durable for multi year use. They also make unique gifts and are ideal for DIY customisation. The right Christmas tree ornaments enhance beauty, express your personal style, create cherished memories and bring festive joy and warmth to your celebrations.

Decorating tips & inspiration

Create a traditional tree with red and green baubles and gold stars for a sophisticated finish. Go coastal with blue tones and native fauna for a refreshing Aussie feel. Try a whimsical mix of candy shapes and sweet pastels for a stimulating Candyland theme. Layer ornaments with lights, ribbons and garlands to build depth. Place heavier pieces close to the trunk for balance. Hang delicate glass ornaments higher and secure them well to reduce knocks from kids or pets. For care, wrap fragile pieces in tissue at the end of the season and store them in sturdy boxes in a cool dry space. Good storage keeps colours bright and shapes intact year after year.
