December has finally rolled around, and post-PSLE results and all that mean people are jetting off on holidays, or already in some winter wonderland somewhere. For those of us who are spending it right here in sunny, snowless Singapore, decorating our homes would certainly help get us in the Christmas spirit.
To help you start decorating, here are 5 standout picks from IKEA’s latest Christmas collection that you might want to head in-store to cop.
1. Live Christmas trees━$99
IKEA is back this year with their live Christmas tree sales. Priced at $99, you can pick your very own 1.5- to 1.8m-tall Noble Fir tree, perfect for ringing in the festive season with the smells of fresh pine in your home.
You’ll also receive a $25 IKEA voucher with every purchase of a live tree. You can use this voucher with a minimum spend of $100 from 5th to 31st January 2026.
Note: Live Christmas trees are only available for in-store purchase at IKEA Alexandra and Tampines. IKEA won’t be offering their take-back live Christmas tree initiative this year due to operational challenges.
2. Artificial Christmas trees━from $1.90

If live trees feel like too much hassle, IKEA has a selection of artificial ones to make the whole affair fuss- and maintenance-free.
IKEA’s mini Christmas trees are priced from $1.90━they’re great for sprucing up any corner of the house. For an even more fun-sized edition, the petite mini tree ($1.90) is just 17cm tall, and made from at least 50% recycled plastic for a more eco-conscious touch.

For more substantial options, IKEA offers artificial trees in a range of heights.
A 55cm-tall option ($14.90) can hold regular-sized Christmas tree ornaments, while full-sized trees up to 210cm ($149) make a statement centrepiece for your home, without you needing to sweep up pine needles daily, or think about disposal after Christmas is over.
3. Novelty ornaments━from $1.90

Once your tree is up, you can deck it out in IKEA’s wide selection of ornaments that suit everything from classic to playful Christmas aesthetics.
The range includes classic paper baubles (6 pieces for $1.90) and whimsical options like the cottage-core mushroom glass ornaments (2 pieces for $12.90).
For a more modern look, check out the set of doughnut-shaped ornaments (6 pieces for $7.90) to add a vibrant pop of colour to your tree. They even resemble the viral IKEA Varmblixt doughnut lamp, popular among eclectic- and mid-century-themed homes.

To top it off, the VINTERFINT glass top spire ($14.90) offers an unconventional alternative to the usual star, with red and white candy-cane-inspired swirls to give your tree a sweet finishing touch.
4. Warm & festive lamps━from $4.90
The STRÅLA lamp shade and matchstick-shaped LED floor lamp.

The STRÅLA lighting range adds an instant cosy glow to any corner of the home, with affordable options like the star lamp shade ($4.90). It pairs well with the complementary table lamp base ($12.90), and you can even swap between different lampshades from the STRÅLA series for a variety of looks anytime.
For a Christmas party conversation starter, the matchstick-shaped LED floor lamp ($39.90) brings a playful touch with its crossed-stick design. Made with a solid pine base, it emits a warm, gentle light and comes with dimmable settings.
5. Decorative pendant lamps━from $8.90

If you’re looking for a more minimalist approach to the festive season, IKEA also offers decorative pendant lamps as an alternative to traditional string lights.
The STRÅLA LED decorative pendant lamp ($8.90) is also battery-operated, so you can hang it anywhere without worrying about putting it near a power point, or having to use cable extensions, which can be messy.
It’s a versatile decoration that brightens any corner of the home, whether as a seasonal detail or a permanent feature.

For a more versatile option, the STRÅLA decorative pendant lamp wreath ($15.90) doubles up as a hanging lamp or a wall wreath.
It’s dimmable for a cosy night in, and fuss-free with no light bulb changes required, thanks to its built-in LED lights.

Taking a modern spin on the traditional candelabra, IKEA also offers a wood LED candelabra ($35.90) that looks like a stylish sculptural piece when not in use, and saves you the hassle of having a live flame in the house.
It’s portable too, since it’s rechargeable with a USB-C cable. Busy homeowners will be glad to know there’s a built-in timer that switches the lights on at the same time every day, with an automatic switch-off after 6 hours.
