The company, which focuses on furniture, design, and interiors, has created a set of [wooden ornaments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-me-ornaments) that are themselves shaped like miniature trees -- allowing consumers to hang Trees on their tree this Christmas. The Forge Creative Trees set leaves room for plenty of personalizing. There are 35 pre-set designs that the company offers, with shapes that range from standard conifers to Seussian orbs. When consumers order Trees, Forge Creative will select off-cuts from a [wide variety of different woods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/don-heston-studio).

The combination of wood varieties and patterns creates thousands of different potential options, insuring that no two sets are alike. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 51% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Personalized Wooden Ornaments:** Creating unique and customized ornament sets made from different wood types and grain patterns can be a potential trend for the holiday gift and decoration market. - **Recursion-inspired Designs:** Incorporating recursive design themes into product lines, like designing ornaments that resemble miniature trees, can be a potential trend for home decor brands. - **Sustainable Ornament-making:** Using off-cuts and scraps from different wood varieties for creating ornaments can be a potential trend for eco-friendly and sustainability-focused brands. ### Where This Applies - **Home Decor:** Brands and designers in the home decor industry can explore creating Christmas ornaments that are both decorative and functional, while also being creative and customizable. - **Gifts and Souvenirs:** Companies that specialize in gift and souvenir-making can offer personalized and eco-friendly wooden ornament sets that customers can use to commemorate special events and occasions. - **Woodworking and Handicrafts:** For woodworking and handicrafts industries, incorporating sustainability in the production process of creating beautiful decorations like wooden ornaments can appeal to eco-conscious customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Decorative Caramel-Filled Trees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-caramel-tree.md) - [DIY Embroidery Ornaments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-stitched-ornament-kits.md) - [Mid-Century-Inspired Paper House Ornaments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-christmas-ornament.md) - [Pop-Up Holiday Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-minute-christmas-trees.md) - [Festive Tree-Inspired Mugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christmas-tree-mugs.md) - [Pampas Grass Holiday Trees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pampas-grass-holiday-trees.md) - [Festive Bamboo Tissues Papers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stackatree.md) - [Mixed Material Home Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/resin-dragon-egg-ornament.md) - [Cutout Christmas Tree Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christmas-tree-display.md)
