WHERE TO BUY CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS IN SINGAPORE

Add a touch of Singapore to your tree with a beautifully crafted white-bone china Christmas Merlion! Snap up a single Merlion for $28, or a set of four for $99 – the perfect addition for tropical Christmas vibes! Psst, you can also get them at Emperor’s Attic, too!
2. Masons Home Decor
Singapore’s favourite and largest Christmas store, Masons Home Decor, lives up to its title with a copious range of Christmas decorations – from artificial trees, LED string lights, ornaments to tree toppers, wreaths and so much more. We especially love the FirTECT hyper-realistic Christmas trees as they’re super durable, and perfectly match all the baubles, fairy lights and pine cone decor!
3. All Events Decor
This year, All Events Decor has stocked up with a plethora of decorative Christmassy goodies. The whole family will love browsing their 36-page catalogue that’s filled with lights, baubles, trees and even blow-up snowmen! The only problem? You’re so spoilt for choice, it’s almost impossible to choose between the glittery wreaths or the traditional ornaments. But it’s safe to say you’ll be sprucing up your abode big time this Christmas!
4. The AC Boutique
If you’re on the hunt for cute ornate hanging decorations for the Christmas tree, you’ll want to make a pit stop at The AC Boutique in Joo Chiat. This boutique is full of goodies. We’re huge fans of the hanging decorations that offer a Singaporean twist to your Christmas tree. May we add: it’s also on point for Chinese New Year!
5. Singapore Trading Post
Eclectic furniture store Singapore Trading Post is an absolute treasure trove of carefully selected, stylish pieces from old East India Trading Company areas, including Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh, as well as Indonesia, Vietnam and Myanmar. If you’re looking to add a little personality and unique character to your tree, make a stop here and prepare for a treasure hunt. Browse through its gorgeous collection of quality pieces. Think red felt Christmas trees and an assortment of tin animals including reindeer. We have our eyes firmly on the miniature red glass heart baubles to add a touch of love to our tree this year!
6. IKEA
We’re all ready to dive into this year’s huge range of decorative festive staples from IKEA (and we may already have the most adorable Vinter Santa perched on our desk). Think fake firs, LED decorations like these lanterns (above), scented and unscented candles, hanging baubles and cheap-as-chips gift wrap too. Double whammy your visit to the store by shopping for great stocking fillers for the kiddos. Look out for the wooden toys, art and craft goodies and cute range of stuffed animals. And don’t forget, you can shop IKEA online from the comfort of your own couch: no need to battle the queues for those meatballs!
7. Tangs
We know it’s nearly Christmas when we wander into the festive emporium that Tangs creates every year in its stores. Inspired by signature Asian values and heritage, you’ll pick up everything from ornaments to festive homewares, beddings, gift wraps to fairy lights. Expect tinsel in every colour imaginable – none of which is tacky!
8. Urban Li’l
Founded by a mum who is passionate about all things kids and design, Urban Li’l is a Singapore-based design studio that offers cute-as-a-button customised decorative pieces for the home… including personalised Christmas tree decorations! We love the laser-cut wooden pieces that shout out your family name (they also make a gorgeous gift for any new mums you know). This year’s Christmas collection features an assortment of tassels from Urban Li’l’s collaboration with Knoette, its own Ribbons & Pine, and the all-time favourite Disney’s Enchanting Christmas. We are huge fans of them all, so good look picking. The Disney collection is also customisable, so it’s perfect for Disney fans, young and old!
9. Crate & Barrel

Yule absolutely adore the charming Christmas decorations from boutique store, Mustard Tree. Think snowmen, reindeers and stars galore. This fantastic store is a social enterprise that believes in empowering people with special needs. We adore the handmade plush Christmas tree that’s not only colourful, but unique in design, too!

As parents, this craft giant is our top spot for snagging craft supplies. And come Christmas time, Spotlight is bursting at the seams with Christmas fun. As well as lots of ready-to-go wares, there are also tons of cool kits, crafts and accessories for you to knock up your own yuletide decor with the family.

Daiso has long been our cheap and cheerful go-to for seasonal goodies, and that includes Christmas too. The stores will be chock full of everything from cute snow globes to inflatable Santas, and Christmas wreaths to shiny tinsel.
