A Fresh Holiday Design Using the Décor They Already Had

One of my favorite parts of holiday decorating is taking what a family already owns and using it in ways they’ve never considered. This week in Prosper, we worked with a collection of ribbon, ornaments, and floral picks that had great potential — they just needed a new approach.

We started at the top. Instead of using floral picks as fillers, we built up the topper with them. Pulling the picks upward gave the tree height and shape, and suddenly the whole tree felt lighter and more intentional.

Then came the ribbon. Most trees either get a waterfall of ribbon or a tight spiral wrapped around them. But this tree deserved something with movement. We wove the ribbon in long, soft waves that dipped in and out of the branches. It pulled your eye through the tree rather than around it, creating a subtle, pretty flow.

The ornaments were where the biggest transformation happened. The family had tons of small ball ornaments — all beautiful, but when separated across the tree, they tended to look a bit scattered. Instead, we grouped them by color and created clusters. Immediately, the tree gained depth. The pops of color became deliberate accents instead of noise, and the whole tree looked more styled and balanced.

And to make the décor feel cohesive, we carried those same elements into the rest of the home. The banister garland got clusters of ornaments tucked along the length of it. Those repeating elements made the tree and the garland feel like part of one complete design, not two separate decorations.

By the end, nothing felt overdone — but everything felt elevated.

Same ornaments. Same ribbon. Same picks. Just redesigned with a fresh perspective.
