Standouts from 2021: Christmas Trees, Wreaths and Garlands

It is the first day of November, which means time to wrap up your holiday décor shopping if you have not yet! Early November is typically when Christmas supplies (especially greenery) start selling out—this year especially—which is why I am sharing my best finds with you now.

Fraser Hill Foxtail Pine Tree (7.5' size, ours is the9' size)

I am also working on a separate roundup of holiday decorations, gift wrap, etc and a preview of our Christmas décor this year, but I did not want to wait any longer to share my faux greenery finds since those tend to sell out first.

60″ Norfolk Pine Garland

I bought most of my holiday greenery last year and some of those products are still around this year, but most on this list are new finds. I have broken them down into three categories:

Christmas Trees

Wreaths + Garlands

Potted Trees + Greenery

These trees are all under $500, highly rated with realistic life-like branches, and many are available in multiple sizes. Tip: make sure to look for “Real Feel” (or PE) branches when shopping for trees, and always look closely at the detail photos!
