4. Mini Tree

While evergreen trees are among the must-have Christmas décor pieces, it is not that practical to put a big one in all rooms of the house.

9. Tree Skirt

 A tree skirt is also needed for wrapping around your Christmas tree’s base. The skirt also holds all the Christmas gifts so you don’t a too fancy one. Tree skirts will also catching those tiny pine needles falling from your tree. 

10. Tree Topper

A tree topper rounds out the list of Christmas ornaments. This is the object sitting on the tree’s tallest branch to finish of its look. Stars and angels are the most popular and common tree toppers.
