Best Artificial Christmas Trees

The Best Faux Trees to Deck Your Halls!
Best Artificial Christmas Trees

There’s nothing quite like the real thing — the scent of pine as you wrestle it through the front door, the ritual of choosing the tree, needles everywhere but worth it for the nostalgia alone. But while I’ll always love a real tree, there’s a lot to be said for a good faux one too. From perfectly shaped branches to snow-tipped finishes and pre-lit options that save a tangle of wires, artificial trees have come a long way — and they can look beautifully realistic if you choose well.

I loved my slim faux tree from when we really didn’t have the room for anything larger in our old flat (below left) and are little tabletop artificial christmas tree in our interiors shop (below right).

I’ve rounded up ten of the best on the market this year — from petite tabletop sizes to full, snow-flocked statement trees. To elevate the look even further, don’t forget the base: a rattan tree skirt instantly makes it feel more polished, and for smaller trees I love using a woven basket or even a metal bucket for a slightly French, gathered-together feel. Everything’s linked below — and do order early, as the best ones always sell out fast. The bonus of a faux tree? You can keep it neatly boxed until you’re ready to decorate!

We link new favourites on our ShopMy Page every day – think of it as a curated shop of all the things we love!
