Themed Christmas trees have gained popularity in the last several years. Many communities support a Festival of Trees fundraiser each year where groups and individuals create and donate a theme tree to be auctioned with the proceeds donated to charity. Events like a Festival of Trees are a great place to get ideas on how to create a stunning themed Christmas tree.
Themed Christmas trees can be whimsical, elegant and personal. Some of the top Christmas tree theme ideas include six themes that feature decorations that are affordable and easy to find.

Deck the tree with everything Disney. Hallmark carries an enormous selection of Disney ornaments from classic Mickey figures to scenes from many of Disney and Disney/Pixar movies.

Add a few ornaments to represent your favorite Disney movies like an Ariel from "Little Mermaid" or Lightning McQueen from "Cars."
The Disney Store online has many unique ornaments to choose from as well as tree skirts and a topper featuring the world's most famous mouse and his best gal.

Favorites include ornament replicas of the Sorcerer's Apprentice hat and traditional Mickey Ears hats. Unique Disney ornaments are also available in the theme park shops and at the gift stores in each resort.

This is one of the best tree themes to personalize your family's Christmas tree. To create a Special Memories tree, simply choose to allow only ornaments that have special meaning on the tree. Designate that each tree decoration must be hand-made, a gift from friends or loved ones, souvenirs from vacations or an ornament purchased to commemorate a special occasion or milestone. This theme can be added to each year easily. Decorating the Christmas tree with nothing but ornaments and decorations that have significance can make tree-trimming day as special an occasion as the Christmas Holiday.
* Winter Wonderland
Trim the tree in blues, whites and silvers. Feature only ornaments that epitomize a Winter Wonderland. Include snowflakes, snowmen, icicles, polar bears, penguins, snowy owls, and shimmering,
