Welcome back, friends! Today I’m so excited to share my 2025 Christmas Tree Tour featuring our 12ft Balsam Hill Aspen Estate Fir in the family room. This year, I incorporated subtle touches of the Ralph Lauren–inspired Christmas trend — but without going “too trendy.” Instead, I pulled in the design elements that make the RL brand iconic: timeless style, classic layering, and elevated, sophisticated details that feel rich, warm, and forever in style. In this video, I’m bringing you behind the scenes as I decorate our 12ft tree step-by-step — from ribbon placement to ornament clusters to how I create that full, layered, designer look. Then stick around for a full Family Room Christmas Tour, where I walk you through the cozy holiday touches that make this space warm, inviting, and ready for the 2025 Christmas season. If you’re decorating for Christmas 2025 and need inspiration for tree decorating ideas, luxury holiday decor, sophisticated Christmas trends, or neutral Christmas aesthetics, this video will give you everything you need. This year’s look blends classic Christmas charm with the elevated textures and refined styling that mirror a Ralph Lauren holiday aesthetic — think warm woods, metallic accents, layered neutrals, and thoughtful, intentional details. ✨ WHAT YOU’LL SEE IN THIS VIDEO: • 12ft Balsam Hill Aspen Estate Fir Christmas Tree • How to decorate a tall Christmas tree (step-by-step) • 2025 Christmas décor ideas & trending holiday styles • Ralph Lauren–inspired Christmas tree elements • Timeless, classic, sophisticated holiday decorating • Christmas ribbon techniques + tree topper ideas • Neutral + gold designer aesthetic • Family Room Christmas Tour (cozy, elevated holiday vibes) • How to get that full, luxury Christmas tree look without feeling overly trendy **FEATURED PRODUCTS** Amazon Storefront https://amzn.to/49aOcoS Tartan Plaid Ribbon https://creatorlink.shop/3LA7qut Front Entry Pencil Trees https://creatoriq.cc/3Hxxq88 Candle Holders https://amzn.to/4oEjvxu Reindeer https://rstyle.me/+BzvFZzC5fRSufjf73A...
