Introduction
Nothing says glamour and sophistication like the rich combination of black, gold, and silver in a holiday design. My Signature Black & Gold Majestic Christmas Tree is all about luxury, depth, and sparkle, creating a regal and breathtaking statement in any space.
If you love bold elegance, rich metallics, and a high-end designer aesthetic, this tree is for you!
In this blog, I’ll take you through my step-by-step process for designing the Black & Gold Majestic Signature Piece, from the perfect ornaments to the finishing touches that make this tree a true showstopper.
The Foundation: Selecting the Right Tree
The base of the Black & Gold Majestic tree is key to setting the tone for this luxurious design. I recommend:
A full, pre-lit black tree – Creates a deep, dramatic background for metallics to shine.
A heavily flocked tree – If you prefer a snow-kissed effect, the white flocking enhances gold and silver accents beautifully. *This is what I used.
A tall and grand tree – This theme looks stunning on larger trees (7.5’ or taller) for a true regal effect.
*What I used. A good quality tree – This stunning tree is from King of Christmas. A good tree means it will last a long time and for a flocked tree, it means little mess to clean up like with other brands.
Pro Tip: Choose warm white lights rather than cool-toned LEDs. They complement gold décor and create an inviting glow.
The Color Palette: Balancing Gold, Black & Silver
This design is rich, bold, and perfectly balanced, with each color playing a key role:
Black – The deep foundation that makes gold pop.
Gold – The main star, adding warmth and opulence.
Silver – The perfect accent to soften and brighten the bold contrast.
Pro Tip: Keep gold as the dominant metallic, with silver used as an accent to break up the darkness and add dimension.
Luxe Ribbons & Textiles for Depth
Ribbons add movement and elegance to the tree. I use:
Black velvet ribbon – Deep, matte contrast to metallic accents.
Gold mesh wired ribbon – Reflects light beautifully and adds warmth.
Black and Gold wired ribbon – Lightens up the overall design while adding texture.
Pro Tip: Use a crisscross layering technique instead of spiraling ribbon around the tree. Tuck loops into branches at varying depths for a cascading effect.
Statement Ornaments & Embellishments
To make Black & Gold Majestic truly regal and dramatic, I use a mix of:
Gold filigree and baroque-style ornaments – Adds a touch of Old Hollywood glamour.
Touches of Silver ornaments – Enhances shimmer and creates an elegant contrast.
Black and gold picks – A luxurious, unexpected detail that softens the look.
Gold magnolia or black poinsettia floral picks – Fills gaps and adds depth.
Pro Tip: Place larger ornaments deeper into the tree and layer smaller, detailed ones toward the edges for a designer-styled effect.
The Showstopping Tree Topper
This tree deserves a dramatic, grand topper to complete the luxurious look. I love to use:
A grand gold and black bow – Layer multiple wired ribbons for a stunning statement.
Black and Gold stems & sprays – Adds height and elegance.
Silver Feathers – To catch light from every angle.
Pro Tip: Instead of using just one item for the topper, combine multiple elements (bows, picks, sprays) to create a full, multi-dimensional crown for the tree.
The Finishing Touch of My Signature Black & Gold Majestic Christmas Tree
To complete the look, I style the tree base with:
Gold and black gift boxes – Chic, monochrome wrapping enhances the theme.
Mirrored or metallic accent décor – Placed around the base for extra shimmer.
* What I used. A black faux fur or gold sequin tree skirt – Adds warmth and elegance.
Pro Tip: Stack decorative gift boxes in different heights and patterns to create a designer-styled tree base instead of a tree skirt or collar.
