A Christmas tree display is not complete without the quintessential Christmas tree topper. Whether you’re going for a traditional Christmas tree star topper or prefer a more modern look, Balsam Hill has the high-quality tree topper you’re looking for.
What Is the Most Popular Christmas Tree Topper?
Star tree toppers are the most popular toppers you’ll find across the globe. They range from the classic 5-point Christmas tree star to more elaborate designs and are usually fitted with a mounting pole base. However, there are other variations of tree toppers to match your theme of choice. Here are some common options:
- Angel tree toppers are elegant figurines dressed in richly colored robes made with luxurious materials. Their conical base typically fits the shape of treetops.
- Bouquet tree toppers are arrangements composed of nature-inspired elements such as faux flowers, berries, leaves, assorted foliage, and sometimes decorated with sparkly details for an enchanting effect.
- Christmas figure tree toppers feature well-loved characters like Santa Claus, Frosty the Snowman, and Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer as festive accents for your Christmas tree.
- Oversized bow tree toppers are made of decorative fabric or ribbons artfully arranged to make a stylish statement on top of your holiday centerpiece.
- Finial Christmas tree toppers are decorative, elongated ornaments placed at the top of the tree. These tree toppers add polish to Christmas trees with contemporary-themed decorations.
How Do You Choose a Tree Topper?
When choosing tree toppers for Christmas, go through the following steps to ensure you find the right match for your display:
-
Take note of your ceiling height
It’s important to have enough space between the tip of your tree topper and the ceiling. To make sure you get a perfectly sized topper, first measure the distance between the top of your tree and the ceiling. Subtract 5 inches from that measurement. The difference is the maximum height of tree topper you should get.
-
Determine your decorating theme
Your tree topper should complement the overall theme of your Christmas tree decorations. Classic tree toppers such as angels, stars, or Christmas figures are great choices for a traditional display. Meanwhile, contemporary decorating themes usually look best with tree toppers that have sleek designs.
-
Consider the height and profile of your Christmas tree
The size of your tree topper should also be proportional to that of your tree. If you have a standard-sized tree measuring up to 7.5 feet tall, opt for a small tree topper. On the other hand, a large tree topper is ideal for taller Christmas trees that make a statement. Go for a star, angel, or bow topper for full-shaped trees, and complement narrow trees with elegant toppers.
-
Check the weight of the topper
Lightweight tree toppers are usually made of paper, plastic, fabric, or fabric composites. On the other hand, heavier toppers are often made from metal, glass, or shells. These may bend the branches of your tree top, or fall off without enough support. Also consider that light-up tree toppers may contain batteries or additional wiring that could contribute to its weight and balance.
How Do You Secure a Christmas Tree Topper?
Balsam Hill offers a durable yet stylish tree topper stabilization kit that gives additional support for your tree topper. Our extension kit comes with a thick gauge metal rod, extra green- and white-colored branch tips for added fill, and plastic zip ties to keep your tree topper secure until it’s time to disassemble.

Choosing a Tree Height
Tree Shape
Tree Light Type
Tree Foliage
Please note that all tree heights indicated on our website include the tree stand. If you want the tallest Christmas tree your room will allow, we recommend buying a tree that is six inches shorter than your ceiling height to allow some clearance for a tree topper. For example, if you have a standard 8 - 9 foot ceiling, we would suggest a 7½ foot tree. Here are some more tips:
Under 6 feet trees
Best for tabletops or secondary spaces like kitchens or dens
6 - 6 ½ feet trees
Designed to fit homes with low to average ceiling heights.
7 - 7 ½ feet trees
Our most popular size, designed to fit perfectly in rooms with average 8 - 9 feet ceilings.
9 feet trees
Our second most popular size, designed for rooms with tall ceilings of 10 - 11 feet to create a stunning effect.
10 - 12 feet trees
These trees are beautiful centerpieces for two-storey living rooms, rooms with very high ceilings and some commercial spaces.
15 - 30 feet trees
These oversized trees are popular with churches, malls, and large office spaces to create grand holiday display.
We offer artificial trees in a wide variety of shapes, from traditional full-width trees to space-saving slim trees and flatbacks. When choosing your tree, we suggest that you consider the diameter (in the Shape description, this might be described as Full 40") of the Christmas tree to help you choose the perfect tree for your space. This measurement is taken at the very widest point of the tree. If you plan to have a few branches touching a wall or a piece of furniture, the true space occupied by the tree will be about six inches less than the stated diameter.
Regular (Full) Trees
Our most popular choice because of their lush profiles and sturdy branches.
Narrow Trees
Perfect for an elegant effect in smaller rooms and apartments.
Slim Trees
Our most slender trees, ideal for tight spaces, corners and foyers.
Flatback Trees
An elegant solution for small spaces, studios and small apartments.
Topiary Trees
Beautifully accent all parts of your home including patios, entryways and porches.
Balsam Hill's designers carefully craft our trees to mimic nature using site visits and cutting from live trees to guide them. We offer three types of foliage options that are made from either PE or PVC material. While some trees use one type of foliage exclusively, others may use mix of foliage types to achieve a particular look. The specific mix is specified on each product detail page in the section that describes the tree's foliage.
True Needle™ Technology
Balsam Hill's exclusive True Needle&tade; evergreen foliage is used to create our most realistic and luxurious artificial Christmas trees. This ultrarealistic foliage is created with injection-molded PE plastic and several different colors of pigment to mimic the structure, texture, and color of natural evergreen needles. A unique feature of True Needle™ foliage is the color variations within the branches. For example, the branch might be a brown/green while the needles start off a dark green and slowly fade to a lighter green.
Classic Needles
Balsam Hill's Classic Needle foliage has soft, flat and flexible needles with a more classic artificial look. These needles are made from thin sheets of PVC that are cut into fine strands to resemble evergreen needles. We use these resilient, flexible needles as the primary foliage of many of the trees in our very affordable Traditional trees. It is also used as filler for most of our Realistic and Most Realistic Christmas trees because of its superior ability to block light and create a "full" look for the tree.
Pine Needles
The PVC pine needles used by Balsam Hill® are specially designed to mimic the size and texture of long, thin needles of a pine tree. These needles even have the rigid texture of real pine needles. If you roll them between your thumb and finger, you will feel the ridges.
If you long for the beautiful glow of lights on your tree but dread untangling the wires, Balsam Hill's pre-lit Christmas trees are the answer. All of our lights are UL® approved and professionaly strung on the tree by hand to minimize the appearance of wires. Each of our pre-lit trees for indoor use come with premium commercial grade lights so that if one bulb burns out or is removed, the rest stay lit. We have a wide variety of pre-lit lighting options to suit every decorating need.
Color+Clear™ Lights
Our exclusive Color + Clear™ remote-controlled lighting system is available in both incandescent and energy-saving LED. The handy remote lets you choose clear lights, multi-colored lights, or both. With more than 50% additional lights, your tree will still have plenty of beautiful lights even if only one light type is selected. If you choose both clear and colored lights, your tree will display more lights than any other artificial tree you will find.
Clear Lights
Enjoy the timeless look of clear lights. Our most popular style of pre-lit tree, clear lights give you the mose flexibility in your decorating, and the ability to change your look from year to year.
Multicolored Lights
Warm your home with these pre-lit trees featuring traditional, festive multicolored lights. Most of our multicolored pre-lit trees feature red, green, blue and yellow lights.
Candlelight™ led lights
Enjoy our premium energy-saving LED lights that never burn out. Unlike cold light emitted from traditional LEDs, our energy-efficient Candlelight LEDs provide a warm glow reminiscent of a candle's flame.
Multicolored led lights
Our multicolored Classic Color™ LED lights bring a festive glow to your Christmas tree without the intense glare of standard LED bulbs. These red, blue, orange, green, and yellow LED lights are energy-efficient and will never burn out.
Unlit Trees
Use your own special lights on these unlit trees. For unlit trees that specify Simple String™, we have already pre-strung the trunk with extension cords, allowing you to plug your choice of lights into extension cord outlets throughout the center of the tree.
