Martha Stewart’s Tiny Trio of White Pine Tabletop Trees Proves How to Transform Small, Forgotten Corners Into Festive, Luxe Spaces
Martha Stewart decorated her white tabletop trees with green and silver ornaments, demonstrating a simple yet elegant styling technique
Tabletop trees are the perfect Christmas decor for small spaces, and Martha Stewart shows us just how chic and effortless they can be.
Featured on the Martha Moments Instagram page, this set of three white pine trees is minimalist and elegant, decorated with green and silver baubles and teardrop ornaments for a subtle yet festive touch. It's a fantastic source of Christmas tree ideas for small, forgotten spaces that feel impossible to upgrade.
The best part is that they are super easy to recreate. Start with a white tabletop tree, like this frosted one from Williams-Sonoma. Add in a mix of green and silver ornaments; this set of velvet ones from Crate & Barrel is fantastic for adding texture, while these silver ones will give your tabletop tree the perfect sheen.
Be mindful of not overdecorating these trees, as a smaller tree means that there is less space to work with. However, if you follow Martha's lead and balance out your ornaments carefully along the branches, they will turn out luxe and festive, perfect for placement on a plinth or side table.
