Dripping in Diamonds Christmas Tree Tutorial with Blaide
Some Christmas trees whisper. This one sparkles from across the room. Meet Dripping in Diamonds, a silver and red showstopper designed by Blaide and decorated entirely with TMI Gifts products. From the top of the tree to the bottom branches, every piece came from our shop, so everything you see here is a look you can bring home.
Why silver and red works
Red is the heart of Christmas, and silver makes it feel brand new. Together they bring all the warmth of a traditional tree with the icy shine of a jewelry box. That contrast is what makes this tree so easy to love. The red keeps it cozy and classic, while the silver catches the light and gives the whole design its diamond-dripped glow.
How Blaide built the look
Here is how Dripping in Diamonds came together:
First, Blaide chose a tree to serve as the foundation for the design. At the top, a handcrafted bow created a polished, personal tree topper. Next, a ball garland was woven through the branches to help fill in. Be sure to add in an assortment of ornaments in different sizes and textures to help bring depth and dimension. Blaide tucked Christmas sprays throughout add fullness and detail. The color story makes a dramatic transition halfway down: rich red decor on the upper half gradually gives way to shimmering silver on the lower half. The shift creates a striking, elegant finish that makes the tree feel like two complementary looks in one.
Tips to scale this design to your space:
- Pick your colors!
- Mix your finishes. Combine shiny, matte, and glittery pieces
- Use a bow as your tree topper
- Use ball garlands to help cover more ground
- Mix different sizes of ornaments to help balance it, especially on a tall tree
- Add in larger accent pieces such as our jewels
- Be sure to always fluff your picks out to ensure full coverage
- Tuck some pieces deeper into the branches.
- Step back as you go. Checking from across the room makes gaps and heavy spots easy to catch.
