The couple creates a winter wonderland in their own backyard with a simple red, gold, and white Christmas tree color scheme
Those of us with large backyards have the privilege of being able to decorate Christmas trees beyond the confines of our living rooms – and Chrissy Teigen and John Legend have set a high bar for what an outdoor tree scheme can look like.
As seen on Marketing Studio Los Angeles' Instagram page, the couple went for a traditional, nostalgic-leaning look with an array of faux-snow-covered pine trees, all of which are adorned with red and gold ornaments, as well as white lights. It's a trendy yet timeless Christmas tree idea, and surprisingly easy to recreate.
While you can certainly go for a traditional green tree, like this one from Wayfair, and cover it in faux snow, you can also opt for an icy white tree for a similar look. Shop all the essentials to get the look below.

Finding an alternative to a green tree that doesn't feel gimmicky can be tricky, but opting for a white colorway is a failsafe way to go. Though it differs from tradition, it is good-looking year-after-year, while the neutral base is the perfect canvas for gold and silver ornaments.
This faux tree has all of the appeal of a traditional Christmas tree without all the hassle. It's large in size, at 6' tall, and features a robust body with lots of branches that fill out its look. Get Chrissy and John's outdoor tree look with some added faux snow.
