History & Traditions Around Christmas Tree Toppers

While stars are a popular Christmas tree topper, the first decorations that adorned greenery back in the day were angels! Even today, angels are popular, and they were first popularized by Queen Victoria in 1848. An engraving showed the Queen and royal family decorating a tree and topping it with an angel. This took the world by storm, and set the standard for English home decor done around the holidays.

Over the years since then, toppers have evolved to include a wide variety of shapes, including stars, snowflakes, and even officially licensed options from various sports teams and pop culture franchises. With many options to choose from, you’re sure to be able to find a topper that suits your style!

Different Styles of Star Christmas Tree Toppers

Stars offer a traditional holiday shape, which is connected to Christmas through the Star of Bethlehem, the celestial body which points visitors to the birthplace of the baby Jesus. A star that shines bright above your tree connects to the nativity story, making it an icon of the holiday season.

You can find star tree toppers that come in traditional Christmas colors like gold and silver, as well as star toppers that offer metallic accents, tinsel, pre-lit designs, wood and twig details, and lots more!

Choosing the Right Star Christmas Tree Topper

A star tree topper is a great match for a full-shaped Christmas tree. The size of the star topper will depend on the size of your tree. You want to make sure the tree and topper should be proportionate. Here’s a handy guide to choosing the topper that suits your Christmas tree:

Be sure to also take the weight of the topper into consideration when choosing one for your tree. A topper that is too heavy will simply fall off the tree, while one that is too light or too small might get lost in the tree and not make an impact at all.

Installing the Christmas Tree Topper

When you have a topper all set to go, be sure to take some safety precautions when putting on the peak of your tree! When installing it, use a stepladder to reach the top of the tree, making sure you have a friend or family member hold the ladder and/or tree steady as you place it. For pre-lit tree star toppers, make sure that all electric components are working properly. Check for any loose wires, burnt out or damaged bulbs, or other problems before plugging into an outlet.

You may need additional support to anchor your topper if the weight is a bit too much for your tree. Consider using a pole support, floral tape, ribbon, or even zip ties to attach the topper securely to your tree.
