When it comes to interior design, eucalyptus branches are a classic. Add a vase to a corner as an ornament, centerpiece, or Christmas wreath to match the tree. Eucalyptus blooms in the winter, making this an ideal time to enjoy it indoors.
The nicest part about this plant is that it dries incredibly well, allowing you to use it as new décor for months without having to worry about cleaning up the dust that will collect on its leaves.
Ideas for using eucalyptus for decoration
Making a eucalyptus wreath is an easy and affordable way to decorate your home. It can be used to decorate a door, window, or fireplace, among other things. You can make it using a ring, a wooden or metal structure, and form the crown with wire. For a final Christmas touch, you can also add some fir or red fruit. If you don’t make them look too festive, they can also be used to decorate your door all winter long (or, if it’s Christmas, you can take your spruce and red berries after the holidays).
Additionally, partial crowns that form an open circle are currently very chic if you don’t want a full crown. In addition to being effective and contemporary, these crowns are easy to make. Eucalyptus works incredibly well as a table centerpiece. You can make a variety of vases of different colors and heights and fill them with just eucalyptus or basic flowers like carnations.
In the same way, I made a wreath for the door, you can also make a much smaller version of the eucalyptus wreath to use as a centerpiece. And to add a little extra comfort to your table, place an XXL candle in the center. If you prefer something simpler, you can also make a tablecloth out of eucalyptus sprigs, red berries like ilex, mistletoe, small glasses, and lights evenly spaced between them. This tool is straightforward, affordable, and incredibly effective.
A Christmas bouquet containing various types of eucalyptus, Spanish fir, and some red fruit, such as ilex, as well as some red oak leaves can be purchased (or easily made yourself).
