Try Decorating Your Christmas Tree with Cluster Baubles!

How to Make Your Christmas Tree Pop Without Oversized Baubles

When decorating your Christmas tree, proportion is key, especially for larger trees! If you’re using standard 40cm or 60cm baubles on a tall 2.7m tree, they can easily get lost in the branches, leaving your festive display looking underwhelming and unbalanced.

But here’s a festive trick that works wonders, create your own cluster baubles!

This affordable and creative hack not only adds a dramatic WOW factor to your tree but also brings texture, depth, and visual interest. Instead of hunting for expensive oversized ornaments, simply bundle two or more baubles together using wire. Vary the sizes, textures, and finishes for maximum impact.

If your tree is on the smaller side, two to three clusters might be all you need. But for larger trees, keep building and layering your clusters until you achieve a lush, full look.

Want to take it up a notch? Turn your clusters into a bauble garland by continuously linking bundles together—perfect for wrapping around your tree, framing doorways, or draping across mantels.

And of course, have fun with it! Mix colours and styles to suit your holiday theme, whether it’s classic red and gold, winter whites, or something whimsical and bright.

Don’t let the lack of oversized baubles stop you from having a show-stopping tree this year. With this easy DIY tip, your Christmas tree will look professionally styled and ready to impress.
