We're big believers that, when it comes to baubles, more is definitely more. For our Hot on the High Street edit this week, we've rounded up our favourite Christmas tree decorations with personality and flair: affordable, modern heirlooms that can be enjoyed and displayed for years to come.
While the conventional spot for a bauble is on the boughs of your tree (whether it's real, artificial, or even paper), the prettiest of baubles can also earn their stripes elsewhere. We recommend displaying them in a bowl or lacquered tray as a centrepiece; hanging them from ribbons in a window; or stringing paper snowflakes down the backs of your dining chairs as a dressing for Christmas Day lunch. Some of the baubles in our edit aren't explicitly seasonal, so get creative in the new year and see if you can't show off your ornaments all year round. However you style them, they're sure to bring joy and make an impact...
