It’s time for another Christmas tree tour! I already shared my main Animal Crossing Christmas Tree on the Festive Christmas Ideas Event, so now it’s time to share our mini tree that was decorated by my teen daughter.
Welcome To The Fourth Annual Christmas Tree Decor Blog Hop
I’m excited to be joining 28 other ladies to share our 2020 Christmas trees. Be sure to visit all them all at the end of the post for gorgeous holiday tree decorating ideas.
2020 Gold Holographic Garland Christmas Tree
My kids love the look of traditional Christmas trees. They prefer the bright reds, golds, whites, and greens of the holiday season. So, while they like this year’s Animal Crossing Christmas theme, they still wanted something more traditional. And when I came home with gold holographic garland from the dollar store, my youngest begged to use it on our small 4 foot tree.
I will say, the holographic garland is super mesmerizing. It just sparkles like nobody’s business and these pictures just can’t do it justice. It’s amazing how a $1 garland can be so pretty. My daughter used about 5 of these garlands on this little 4 foot tree. She wove it on the inside and then on the outside of the tree to give it the most beautiful glow, especially at night (see video below).
This tree is its best at night, when the gold holographic garland has a chance to really shine. The sparkles seen in the video are NOT effects…the tree really does sparkle! Isn’t it mesmerizing?!
Now, if you’ve been following this blog, I know you’ve seen this tree decorated in gold before. However, if I had decorated the tree, it would be loaded with ornaments. My daughter has a lighter hand and prefers the tree with lots of garland sparkle and less ornaments. You can see the difference between my daughter’s style and my own style. She used large poinsettias, the holographic garland, and a few chosen gold ornaments to create her Christmas tree.
I hope you enjoyed our 2020 Gold Holographic Garland Christmas Tree. Make sure to keep scrolling down to see the other fabulous decorated Christmas trees.

I love the gold tree. I have seen that garland and it really is mezmorizing. I think it is great that your kids love the traditional Christmas colors and this tree is truly beautiful! Merry Christmas.
Erlene at My Pinterventures says
Thank you. They already made plans to have a red and gold tree next year…lol.
Rebecca says
Erlene, I love your gold tree! I’m not familiar with holographic garlands, so you’ve got me intrigued (especially since it came from the Dollar Store, lol!). I love poinsettia stems on Christmas trees, too, and your gold ones look amazing. How fun that your daughter helped with the decorating!

I’m really happy my daughter decorated this tree…one less thing for me 🙂 I wish I picked up more of the holographic garlands because they are so pretty. Really, they are so much prettier in person.
Beverly says
The sparkle is beautiful! The poinsettias are a perfect touch to add to the tree.
Jo (A Rose Tinted World) says
What a lovely tree. I love the colours. Those golden poinsetta flowers really look amazing!
Donna @ Modern on Monticello says
the daughter was right, this all gold tree is a must have, especially with that garland. It is beautiful. Enjoy the Holidays.
Erlene at My Pinterventures says
Thank you. Happy Holidays to you too.
Betsy @ Happily Ever After, Etc says
It’s always interesting to see how different people decorate in the same style, i loved seeing how your daughter decorated this tree! I’m definitely a fan of the pretty garland and poinsettias!
Maria says
What a sweet tree! those white magnolias are brilliant and make the tree so festive. I could see this in my homes here in South Carolina. Pinned to my Christmas board.

Chloe says
Your little gold tree is gorgeous! That garland is lovely, I can see how it sparkles and adds that lovely glow at night. I am probably more like your daughter, and my husband more like you. He believes there are never enough ornaments!
Erlene at My Pinterventures says
Thank you. I’ll be sure to let my daughter know you liked it. It’s funny how we all have our own tree decorating preferences.
Andrea says
I came for the Christmas hop, but I ended up watching your video on the Giant Animal Crossing Money Bags. What a great way to make money as a gift feel so much more special. I’m happy to discover your blog.
Erlene at My Pinterventures says
🙂 Thanks for watching the video. This year’s theme was Animal Crossing.
sonja says

Thank you. That is funny how our daughters can be so different from us.

Wow Erlene, your gold tree is stunning! Dollar store garland never looked so classy!
Erlene at My Pinterventures says
Thanks. The garland does look more than a dollar.
Gail @Purple Hues and Me says
Your tree is beautiful, Erlene! The garland reminds me of the trees we had growing up. Back then we had lots of silver tinsels and garland! I hope you have an affiliate link to the Dollar Tree cause you’ve convinced us to buy some! It does look amazing and unbelievable that it’s just a dollar. I’m on my way to find some!

I really do like that holographic garland it reminds me of my parents tree they used to put up when I was kid with the real colored bulb lights, and a chirpy bird, LOL!
Wanda | From House To Home says
What a beautiful tree, Erlene! Gold and sparkle is kind of my thing so that holographic ribbon is right up my alley 🙂
Paula@SweetPea says

Erlene at My Pinterventures says
Aww, thank you. I love that my daughter wanted to help me decorate too. It can be exhausting doing it all by myself. I hope you can find some of these garlands. It’s so pretty and I just couldn’t get the pictures to show how pretty it is IRL.
