Decorating A Christmas Tree For All Seasons
Are you thinking about keeping the Christmas tree up all year? Every year, more people are adopting the year-round holiday tree—which makes Christmas a cinch. The best part of a year-round holiday tree is that you can change your tree as little or as often as you want: Do a one-day celebration for a birthday party, dress it up for the four major seasons, or for each of your favorite holidays, or pick one theme and leave it up all year long. There's no wrong way!
We've rounded up 24 of the best year-round Christmas tree ideas. From which ornaments to hang, to what style and color of lights to hang, we've curated enough ideas to help you keep that tree up all year.
Year-Round Tree Ideas for Spring
1. Bountiful Butterflies
Butterflies are one of the first signs that Spring has arrived at the end of each winter. Whether you turn your tree into a kaleidoscope of monarchs or recreate a wildflower meadow replete with pollinators of every shape and size, we adore this idea and definitely recommend this for a full spring season option, especially if you don't want to redecorate 12 times per year. This could easily serve as beautiful seasonal decor from March through August.
VGOODALL 11.5-inch Garden Butterfly Ornaments
- Each pack includes 50 butterflies which can be used for various occasions (like dressing up your tree this Spring after you take down the Easter decorations). The butterflies are made of waterproof PVC material and are safe for both indoor and outdoor use. There are nearly a dozen colors and patterns in each package of butterfly ornaments.

2. Flower Garden
When has Spring officially sprung? When the crocuses, daffodils and other early bulbs emerge from the chilly ground to greet the new season. You can recreate that new day, clean slate sense of hopefulness with your own floral spring tree. The tutorial for the white floral tree outlines how to use silk flowers to decorate your artificial tree. The dried flower tree at right is created from thousands of flowers and stems gathered all spring and summer, dried carefully, and affixed to a wire frame for a year-round display.
3. Mardi Gras Tree Ideas
Fat Tuesday has its own traditional decor, of course—all of which lends itself beautifully to adorning a tree. Masks, beads, glitter, flowers, noisemakers, ribbons, you name it. The traditional colors of gold, green and purple set these trees well apart from more traditional Christmas decor, so no one will think you've just accidentally left the tree up a few months too long.
4. Make Your Own Luck
Shamrocks, gold coins, leprechauns, horseshoes and hats are iconic St. Paddy's Day decor. You can make some yourself with this ornament tutorial from Creatively Sams. Deck the tree in green and gold, cross your fingers, hang a horseshoe over your door, and start looking for rainbows…
5. Rainbow Madness
Or make your own rainbow. This tree could serve you well year-round, but it's great for St. Patrick's Day, Pride Month (June), Summer, an art classroom or daycare. Rainbows are so versatile and these trees are so fun, there's really no need to restrict this design to one part of the year. The upside-down tree is also a fun twist that can be adapted to all holidays. Get the details from Smart Fun DIY.
6. Bunny Hop
Who better to represent Easter on your tree than the Easter bunny? There are a number of ways to pull off this look, including this great tutorial for the giant Easter Bunny tree at right. Whether you use plastic eggs, paper ears, or a pinata (like the tree at left), you're sure to get rave reviews for your Bunny Hop tree this Easter.
7. Eggs Aplenty
Easter eggs are one of the most iconic Easter decorations throughout the world. This example from BHG uses naturally dyed eggs and satin ribbon, and the Peanut Blossom tutorial uses real eggs as well. But you can replicate with these colorful paper mache egg ornaments (and reuse them year after year). The eggs are lightweight, colorful, and made to hang on your tree.
Gardening Will Paper Mache Egg Ornaments
- The eggs measure approximately 2.5in tall and 1.5in wide. They come in six varieties including different colors. Each package is sorted randomly.
Attach the eggs to your holiday tree by looping or tying the satin ribbon to the tips of your tree's branches.

Year-Round Tree Ideas for Summer
8. Cinco de Mayo Tree Decorating Ideas
Cinco de Mayo's festive air and bold colors are prime year-round tree decor material. But there's no reason to limit yourself to decorating only the tree! This papel picado banner tutorial can help you spread the celebration to the walls, doorways, front porch, street… wherever you can hang a garland.
9. Mothers Day Tree Decoration Ideas
You love your mom. That's the long and short of it. With any of these ideas, no mom could miss the message that this tree decor is just for her. Make it extra personal by creating decorations with your mother's photos following this tutorial at treetopia.
10. Pride Tree Decorating Ideas
We already posted rainbow tree ideas for Spring, but Pride deserves a special mention in Summer because June is the ideal month for a rainbow tree. You can get an artificial tree, featured above, with rainbow branches. There are a number of LGBTQIA ornaments, garlands and lights available, as well. Or, like the other rainbow trees from Spring, you can choose to simply decorate your tree in a rainbow assortment of ornaments, bows, lights, streamers or garland.
11. Fathers Day Theme Ideas
You could always do a generic Father's Day tree with #1 Dad ornaments and his favorite colors. Or, you could deck out the tree in his favorite sports team, movie franchise, or game. This is a fun 12-month idea, too. There's no reason we can't celebrate Star Wars from January to November, right? For tips to creating a themed tree without breaking the bank, check out this tutorial on Treetopia.
12. 4th of July Holiday Tree Ideas
Whether you drape your tree in flags, fireworks and stars, or recreate a lakeside Independence Day picnic, or go representative with red flowers and blue ornaments on a white tree, there's no wrong way to decorate for the 4th of July. One thing photos can't capture is the way fiber optic fireworks mimic the real thing—without smoke or noise, and all month long. Not only do they make great 4th of July decorations, but they also fit well with Memorial Day, Veterans Day, Presidents Day, and many other American holiday themes.

15. On the Trail
Summers are for camping, and camping is for making s'mores, being out in nature, birdwatching, hiking, catching fireflies and cooking your meals in cast iron skillets over a firepit. These easy DIY s'mores and roasting marshmallows and vintage bedroll ornaments really set the tone, but what's more evocative of summer nights than a jar of fireflies? Take yourself back to the heady days of your youth with this (humane!) replica of lightning bugs in a Ball jar. (No insects were harmed in the making of this article.)

Year-Round Tree Ideas for Fall
16. Pumpkin Spice Everything
Say what you will about the perennial trend of pumpkin-flavored food and drink, but for our money there's no better Fall tree decor than the autumnal warm hues of a pumpkin patch. Orange, green, gold, burgundy, bronze, oh my. Whether you go literal and put actual gourds on your tree, or thematic with pumpkin shaped ornaments, or merely give the impression through golden ribbons and green garlands, you can't beat the warmth and coziness of these trees.
17. To the Woods
What's more autumnal than furry creatures in trees preparing for the long winter ahead? Nothing, we think. Whether you go muted neutrals or blazing foliage, you'll bring the chill of Fall air and evoke the feeling of preparing to burrow into winter. And that's the kind of Fall we like.

These trees would also be great for classrooms, daycares, and donation centers that collect supplies for underserved community schools.
19. Halloween Tree Decorating Ideas
Halloween trees are no new concept to the Halloween-obsessed. It's the perfect time to pop up the tree; you're probably already decorating the house and yard, thinking of costumes, and getting ready for the festivities. After spooky season is over, toss up a fall theme for a few weeks, then redecorate for Christmas.

Conversation hearts are the best part of Valentine's Day. That's right, we said it. Whether you go big, like this candy-themed Valentine's Day tree decked out in all kinds of conversation-starting hearts, or with salt dough hearts you make yourself, or go small with a simple DIY candy heart tree, you can't go wrong.
23. Classic Red Hearts
A great Valentine's Day tree decoration idea, especially for outdoor trees, is a simple strand of heart-shaped lights. They'd be perfect indoors, too, of course, and on an evergreen, or around the front porch, or wrapped around the mailbox, or… well, you get the idea.
24. True Romance
For a genuinely special Valentine's Day tree, go full-on traditional romance. We love these examples from —. You can start with some lighted roses in the color of your choice, then add as many hearts, Xes and Os, beaded garlands, ornaments and anything your heart desires.
Romantic Rose Fairy Lights
- Elegant and diverse, the roses are ideal for other events as well such as Mother's Day, birthdays of loved ones, and wedding parties. They require very little energy and are made with long-lasting materials (so you'll get plenty of use from them).
