I’m really keen to explore the rather bizarre yet somehow quite stunning allure of black Christmas trees as an interior design choice. They’re a thing now, you guys, and I want to unpack the appeal and, more importantly, give y’all some concrete suggestions on how to make a black Christmas tree look good in your home this holiday season.

Or, as GQ puts it, “How to Stage a Black Christmas Tree and Avoid Scaring Your Family.” That is, “How to Make a Black Christmas Tree Not Scary. Or Tacky.

Or Just in Poor Taste.”

The 13 Best Indoor Black Christmas Tree Decor ideas

1. Gothic Elegance Black Christmas Tree

The Black Christmas Tree is Gothic Elegance, pure and simple. This strikingly unique tree is a take on the traditional holiday adornment.

With its dark, dramatic hues, and opulent ornaments, set one of these up in your abode, and you’ll have a strikingly sophisticated indoor winter wonderland.

2. Midnight Glam Black Christmas Tree

Take your holiday decorations to the next level with the Midnight Glam Black Christmas Tree. It has a look that is not just sleek but also not overwhelmed by the tree’s presence.

I would call the appearance “subtle luxury,” as it blends elegance and modern festive oddity seamlessly.

3. Monochrome Magic Black Christmas Tree

Change your holiday decorations to a sleek and modern black Christmas tree. A monochrome magic black tree is unique but bold in nearly any room where it might sit.

It has an allure of sophistication that might just be the perfect fit for any interior design you are working with or in.

4. Neon Accents Black Christmas Tree

Make your holiday decorating truly contemporary with a Black Christmas Tree from Neon Accents. This stunning indoor decor piece is the very definition of modern elegance, combining the boldness of its matte epai base with the brilliant hues of the neon lights that adorn it.

5. Spooky Chic Black Christmas Tree

Change your holiday decor to a Spooky Chic Black Christmas tree, combining eerie elegance with festive charm. Decorate it with dark ornaments, brilliant, shimmering lights, and gothic accents for a most unique celebration.

6. Silver Frost Black Christmas Tree

The Black Silver Frost Christmas Tree is modern and sleek, with glimmering silver highlights that contrast beautifully against the fuscia branches. This tree is a bold statement piece, perfect for anyone wanting to take their holiday decor in a fresh direction.

7. Jewel-Toned Whimsy Black Christmas Tree

The Whimsy Black Christmas Tree shimmers with colors and the glow of its jewel-toned ornaments. The radiance and richness of these hues create a striking contrast against the tree’s dark branches, making it an unusually eye-catching centerpiece for holiday decor.

8. Starry Night Black Christmas Tree

The Black Christmas Tree, Starry Night, features modern aesthetics with its unique black branches, creating an opportunity for more eye-catching ornamentation and overall sophistication. Unlike any other Christmas tree I have seen, it is entirely possible that this may be the only tree one actually “needs” for the holiday season.

9. Rustic Charm Black Christmas Tree

The Black Christmas Tree takes rustic elegance to a new level, combining warmth with the natural elements of pinecones and burlap that accent the tree. Its stark beauty—just like any beautiful monochrome object—provokes you to consider the form, especially when the form is a conifer.

10. Vintage Gold Black Christmas Tree

The Black and Gold vintage Gold Christmas tree is a piece of indoor decor that cuts a striking figure against your holiday backdrop. Where some Christmas trees seem almost too demure in their elegance and are far too common in their appearance, this tree is truly a standout piece.

11. Bohemian Luxe Black Christmas Tree

The Bohemian Luxe Black Christmas Tree is an indoor Christmas tree, featuring the black color as its main theme. Its main decorations are eclectic and really add a lot of artistic flair to the nature of the tree.

Some of these decorations are metallic (as are many of the decorations on Christmas trees in general this year), and what this tree might be lacking in snowfall (no snowfall on this tree, unlike some other trees) it more than makes up for in tonal depth and richness, particularly because these decorations are also in a variety of hues.

12. Minimalist Modern Black Christmas Tree

A modern, elegant black Christmas tree offers a minimalist take on traditional holiday decor, emphasizing the sleek lines and simple forms that contemporary decoration demands. It can capture some of the magic of a standard evergreen tree while politely offering a refined, sophisticated alternative to the typical indoor holiday display.

13. Cosmic Galaxy Black Christmas Tree

The Cosmic Galaxy Black Christmas Tree presents a bold, contemporary look. Its rich black color is a perfect backdrop for vibrant ornaments and really lets them shine.

Beautifully constructed and perfectly shaped, this tree is an elegant statement piece for any indoor space during the holiday season.
