Christmas is all around us. Yes, it's only October, but like every year, it's now when all of the best festive decor makes its way to the shelves of home stores everywhere.
If you're a lover of Target, like I am, you'll know that they recently launched their Christmas collaboration with none other than interior design royalty, Shea McGee. As expected, the collection is filled with all sorts of stylish decor to make your home feel festive (and still chic) for the holidays. But, after browsing the many products and adding far too many of them to my basket, there was one piece I had my eye on right from the start – the rather quaint rattan Christmas trees that I instantly pictured sitting happily on my mantel.
With their scalloped shape and textured weave, the rattan Christmas trees in Shea's Target collection are irresistibly cute. Whether you scatter multiple on a mantel, like I plan to do, or place one at your front door for guests to see, you'll want to bring it out every Christmas.
Plenty of rattan has been featured in this year's Christmas decorating ideas, and I can see why. What I love most about the wicker trees is that they perfectly balance festivity with style.
They stray far from the typical kitschy Christmas decorations that define past holidays and feel so on-trend for 2025. Like all good rattan decor, what makes Shea's Christmas trees perfect for the holidays is their rustic style, guaranteed to give your space a cozy, homely feel that's so fitting for this time of year.
Whether you're shopping all three sizes and creating a dramatic display of trees of varying heights along your mantel or simply scattering them across your home for pops of festivity, I can think of plenty of ways I'll be featuring it in my holiday decorating this year. Keep it minimal and place one small tree at the heart of your dining table or, for an added dose of Christmas cheer, try wrapping LED fairy lights around your tree for some drama.
The wicker trees aren't the only wicker pieces in Shea's Target collection or in her own holiday collection at McGee & Co., either. There are plenty more pieces to bring this rustic trend into your home over the holidays.

This Christmas tree skirt went straight into my cart too. It's got the perfect amount of detail that it adds something to the tree, without distracting from the ornament. And $70? That's the cheapest I have seen a rattan tree skirt so far this year.
This tray is the perfect subtly festive nod that could work on any surface in your home. Fill this with Christmas candy and pop it on a coffee table for guests to help themselves.
Another bargain Christmas tree skirt from Shea's new Target line. This one is designed to look like a basket that the tree sits in.
