5 Tips for Rearranging Your Furniture for Your Christmas Tree

Now that Thanksgiving is over it's officially time to start putting up your Christmas decorations if you haven't already! Every year when we get the Christmas tree out it seems like the big question is where will you put it and how does it work with my existing furniture? You want your home to look beautiful for Christmas but you also want to ensure your space is still usable. Today, our furniture store at the Lake of the Ozarks has a few tips on how to arrange your furniture around your Christmas tree!


1) Decide On a Focal Point 

First, decide which room you will enjoy your tree the most. Typically we put our trees up in the living room but depending on how much space you have to work with you may need to consider a different room. Your tree should be a safe distance from fireplaces and high trafficked areas.

2) Empty Your Space

After you choose which room to put your tree, sometimes it's best to empty the room first. Starting fresh will often give you a new perspective on the room. After the room is empty decide where to put your tree and then start moving your furniture back into the room. Sometimes trial and error is the best way to find the perfect furniture arrangement.

3) Rearrange or Remove Furniture

Your furniture is important, especially during the holidays but you may need to rearrange or possibly remove a few things to accommodate your tree. You probably don't want to move out any major furniture like couches and chairs but you may be able to sacrifice an end table and a lamp. It's important to still be able to use your living room while you have your tree up.

4) Repurpose Furniture in Other Rooms 

Just becasue you move your furniture out of your living room doesn't mean you can't use it all. Consider moving it into adjacent rooms if possible so you can still use it if you plan on having a big party or gathering over the holidays.

5) Be Realistic About Tree Size 

Almost everyone wants the biggest and best tree in their home but you may want to be realistic about the size of your home and the size of your tree. If you are planning on having a large gathering for Christmas you may want to downsize your tree to make plenty of room guests. If having a big tree is a must, then you may just want to put up your tree in a different room where guest won't be seated and out of the way.


The holiday season is here and it's time to cue the Christmas music and get out all of your decorations! If you are planning on having a big holiday party, do you have enough furniture for everyone to sit comfortably? Now is the perfect time to upgrade your furniture right in time for the holidays. A brand new living room set or a dining table is a great addition to your home if you are hosting any holiday parties this year. Come see our vast selection of home furnishings at the Lake of the Ozarks! We have everything you need to be ready for your holiday gatherings this year!
