Whether you prefer a classic Christmas or a hip-hopin’ Holiday, English Gardens has ornaments, garland and other décor to spice up your season. This year, our buyers and designers have developed 15 themes that are sure to inspire your Christmas tree decorating.
“RV Christmas”
A fun theme inspired by all things camping! With a white and red color theme, RV Christmas incorporates Santa fishing and camping in an RV as well as lanterns, Solo cups, and woodland animals. Make your RV Christmas complete burlap ribbon and Red Neck wine stoppers in shape of a hammer, screwdriver, and water faucet.
“Golden Peacock”
An elegant theme which puts a spin on traditional peacock colors. Featuring colors of green, blue and gold, the Golden Peacock displays peacock feather ornaments and gold floral silks. Ruffles of peacock feather ribbon surround the tree to showcase a very trendy Christmas.
“Santa’s ‘Deer’ Friends”
A whimsical theme filled with deer of all shapes and sizes! Along with cute ornaments of reindeer, Santa’s friends also include mischievous elves and cheery gingerbread men. The theme tree is decorated with two types of ribbon: deer and gingerbread men. A cute theme for a fun Christmas display!
“Toyshop”
A fun theme meant to attract children of all ages! Santa’s Toyshop displays novelty toys such as Mr. Potato Head, Thomas the Train, and a variety of Fisher Price toy ornaments. Santa’s elves also have paint buckets that line the tree for decorating toys. This playful theme will have kids giggling and parents reminiscing.

“Geometric Christmas”
A visual theme in traditional Christmas colors. The ornaments for this theme defy the traditional ornament look. Using the traditional green, red and gold colors, some ornament balls were blown with decorative holes and patterned with zig-zag shapes.
“Ombre”
The Ombre tree theme is very fashionable and embraces our trendiest color for the holiday: Purple! This tree features ornaments specially handmade from European glass-blowers. Instead of the traditional round ornaments, the ornaments have long stems that give a tree an elegant and striking look!

Bold and vibrant defines the approach designers had with Fancy Feathers. With splashes of blue, green and pink, this theme shows off a very fashionable Christmas. If you love birds, this is your theme. This theme has a variety of bird ornaments, feathers, silks, and even decorated caged birds to show of our winged friends on a tree!

An outdoorsy theme with a preppy flair. With plaid reindeers and acorns, the theme incorporates neutral colors with brown and burgundy.
“True Blue”
A beautiful theme made of different textures: Burlap, tin, denim and a touch of lace. Illustrating an urban Christmas theme, True Blue is lined with silver and cream colors with frosted twig ball ornaments and ornaments displaying the spirit of the Holidays in the words: “Peace,” “Joy,” and “Hope.”
