Sparkling Holiday Magic: Decorating the Perfect Christmas Tree in Nairobi

Sparkling Holiday Magic: Decorating the Perfect Christmas Tree in Nairobi

Watch Sylvia Uchi shop and decorate her Christmas tree in the above YouTube video!

Greetings, fellow festive enthusiasts! As we gear up for the most wonderful time of the year, I couldn't be more excited to share with you my latest video: a behind-the-scenes look at my 2020 Christmas tree decorating extravaganza! 🎄✨

But before we dive into the glitter and glow, let me take you back to last year, when the holiday rush caught me off guard, and decorating felt more like a chore than a joyous celebration. This year, I vowed to take a different approach – to slow down, savor the moment, and create a magical masterpiece that would dazzle and delight.

So, without further ado, join me on a virtual shopping spree as we explore the top spots in Nairobi, Kenya, for all your Christmas décor needs. From snow-frosted trees to twinkling lights, we've got everything you need to deck the halls and make spirits bright!

Finding Christmas Magic in Nairobi

1. Snow Flocked Christmas Tree – Orca Deco: Our journey begins at Orca Deco, where we found the perfect centerpiece for our holiday extravaganza – a stunning snow-flocked Christmas tree that sparkles with seasonal splendor.

2. Small Christmas Pine Trees – MINISO: For a touch of festive flair, we stopped by MINISO and picked up some adorable mini Christmas pine trees to adorn our mantel and tabletops.

3. Silver Snowflake & Gold Star Ornaments – Party Depot: No Christmas tree is complete without a sprinkle of shimmering snowflakes and twinkling stars, courtesy of Party Depot.

4. Christmas Ornament Ball Set – Carrefour: From classic red and green to dazzling silver and gold, Carrefour had an incredible selection of Christmas ornament ball sets to suit every style and theme.

5. Standing Santa Claus – Carrefour: Ho ho ho! Our Christmas décor wouldn't be complete without a jolly old St. Nick to greet guests and spread holiday cheer.

6. Wobbling Santa Claus - Carrefour: And for an extra dose of whimsy, we couldn't resist adding a wobbling Santa Claus to our collection – because who doesn't love a dancing Santa?

7. Frosted Angel Hair – Orca Deco: To create a winter wonderland effect, we sprinkled Orca Deco's frosted angel hair throughout our tree, adding a touch of frosty elegance.

8. Warm white LED garland – Orca Deco: For a soft, warm glow, we draped Orca Deco's LED garland around our tree, casting a magical spell on our holiday décor.

9. Gold Star with lights -Palacina Interiors: A shimmering gold star with twinkling lights from Palacina Interiors added the perfect finishing touch to our tree topper.

10. Silver Polka Dot Gift Boxes – Text Book Center: Underneath the tree, we nestled Text Book Center's silver polka dot gift boxes, ready to be filled with festive surprises.

11. Gold Polka Dot Ribbons – Carrefour: Weaved among the branches, Carrefour's gold polka dot ribbons added a touch of elegance and whimsy to our tree.

12. LED light gift boxes set of 3 – Orca Deco: More than just décor, Orca Deco's LED light gift boxes added a warm, festive glow to our holiday display.

13. LED light white reindeers – Orca Deco: These charming LED light white reindeers from Orca Deco added a touch of winter wonderland magic to our outdoor décor.

14. Rose gold reindeers – Carrefour: And for a touch of whimsy, we added Carrefour's rose gold reindeers to our holiday display – because who says reindeers have to be brown?

15. White snow carpet - Orca Deco: To create a snowy scene, we laid down Orca Deco's white snow carpet, transforming our home into a winter wonderland.

16. Christmas Tree Gold Skirt/Foot Cover – Orca Deco: And finally, to complete the look, we dressed our tree in Orca Deco's Christmas tree gold skirt, adding an extra touch of elegance and sophistication.

17. Gold hat boots – Carrefour: These whimsical gold hat boots from Carrefour added a touch of festive fun to our holiday display, perfect for hanging by the chimney with care.

18. Gold and white pine cones - Carrefour: And last but not least, Carrefour's gold and white pine cones added a touch of natural beauty to our holiday décor, bringing the outdoors in.
