In our Holiday Style Challenge series, some of our favorite bloggers brought you new and creative ideas for decorating your home for the holidays. In this series, several of our bloggers added fresh flair to their Christmas tree by adding customized touches, and we loved the way they weren’t afraid to add a little sparkle, paint, and yes, even succulents to their Christmas traditions.

From the Forums: A Visit to a Christmas Tree Farm

Posted by: on November 23rd, 2012 | Make A Comment

The Home Depot is a great source for fresh cut Christmas trees. You can shop for them at your local Home Depot store, or you can order a real Christmas tree online to be delivered to your front door. Two of our Forums associates, Grow2Girl and BostonRoots, took a field trip to the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina to visit the Christmas tree farm that supplies The Home Depot.

They brought back lots of photos and videos showing what goes on at a Christmas tree farm and posted them on the online How-To Community Forums. In the video above, BostonRoots shows us the process of harvesting and then baling the Christmas trees. This self-described “plant geek” can barely contain her excitement. “I was in complete awe at just how many times the trees were touched before they were even loaded on to the trailers. Planted, nurtured and groomed by hand, cut individually with a chainsaw by hand, put in the baler and taken out by hand, picked up, and put on the truck by hand. Driven down the mountain by tractor with two hands … and we haven’t even gone to shipping yet! Unbelievable, and Grow2Girl and I were there to see it!” she writes.

The Martha Stewart Living Douglas Christmas Tree

Posted by: on November 22nd, 2012 | Make A Comment

 

This season you don’t have to choose between whether to decorate the tree with white or multi-colored Christmas lights.

With the dual light control feature on our beautiful, life-like, pre-lit Douglas Trees from Martha Stewart Living, you can switch from white to multi-colored lights with the convenient flick of a switch.

We’d like you to take a look at this magnificent tree for yourself. When your friends and family see it all decked out with ornaments in you home, they will hardly believe it’s actually an artificial Christmas tree.

Star Wars Themed Christmas Tree: DIY Ideas from 7th House on the Left

Posted by: on November 16th, 2012 | 5 Comments

A Star Wars-inspired Christmas tree by Ashley and Greg Brown of 7th House on the Left | For The Home Depot Style Challenge

 

In our Style Challenge series, we ask some of our favorite bloggers from around the web to surprise us with their ideas for creating a stylish and functional space using Home Depot products as a starting point.

We were anxious to see what Ashley and Greg Brown would come up with when we sent them a big box of Home Depot Christmas decorations for our Holiday Style Challenge. On their blog, 7th House on the Left, Ashley and Greg write about renovating and decorating their home. But for us, they show us their geek sides by creating a Star Wars-themed Christmas tree. Greg explains how they came up with the Star Wars theme. And check out their clever ideas on how to give ordinary Christmas ornaments a Star Wars treatment.

Everyone who knows me knows I’m what you might call a “professional geek.” I’m a web developer, Doctor Who and Star Wars are at the very top of my “favorite franchises” list, and one of my favorite pastimes is tweaking my computer. So when Home Depot sent us this bonus item in our “Mystery Box,” we knew right where it needed to be … my office.

Christmas tree decorating ideas from Emily Clark | Tree decorating with live succulents

 

In our Style Challenge series, we ask some of our favorite bloggers from around the web to surprise us with their ideas for creating a stylish and functional space using Home Depot products as a starting point.

When dreaming up bloggers we’re dying to work with, Emily Clark was at the top of our list. Not only does she have fantastic taste and DIY prowess, but we’ve also been checking in on her Emily A. Clark blog for years! Emily graciously agreed to join our Holiday Style Challenge and design a festive Christmas tree just for us! Read on for her very clever and unusual Christmas tree decorating ideas inspired by a visit to a Home Depot garden center. 

Although we made the decision to convert our dining room into a home office earlier this year, I thought it would be fun to transform it back to a space for entertaining during the holiday season. So, we brought the dining chairs out of storage and set up the Christmas tree to create a festive spot to share with friends.

When it’s time to break out the holiday decorations and put up the family Christmas tree, the last thing you want to do is waste a lot of time bending and shaping branches. Easy Shape Pre lit Christmas trees from GE and Martha Stewart Living feature branches with stiffer ends that resist bending while in storage.

With one of these beautiful artificial Christmas trees, you and your family can enjoy decorating your tree with all your favorite ornaments rather than wrangling with a lot of tangled branches.

Live Christmas Trees vs. Artificial: We Have Both in Store and Online

Posted by: on November 3rd, 2012 | 10 Comments

A woman decorates an artificial Christmas tree

 

When it comes to Christmas trees, most folks fall into one of two camps: the Real Christmas Tree Traditionalists, and the Artificial Christmas Tree Pragmatists. There’s something to be said for both approaches to celebrating Christmas, but the sad fact is some Pragmatists secretly wish they could be in the Traditionalist club.

The good news is that The Home Depot has the perfect solution.

Truth be told, Real Christmas Tree Traditionalists secretly feel just a wee bit superior to the Artificial Tree crowd. It takes time and effort, and maybe even a little expert knowledge to acquire a live Christmas tree (or a “real Christmas tree,” as they like to say). And to them, taking the family down to the Christmas tree lot is an important annual event. A tree is something to be earned. And it’s a TREE, by golly. Trees don’t get stored in the attic, they’ll tell you.

Artificial Christmas Tree Pragmatists love Christmas and its traditions as much as anyone. But for them driving to a tree lot, picking the tree, tying it on top of the car and then dragging it from the driveway to the family room can be a hassle. And between late end-of-year meetings at work and holiday pageants at school, it’s hard for them to find time to round up the family for a Christmas tree expedition, as fun as it might be.
