Have you started decorating yet? If not, don’t worry, December’s only just begun and there’s plenty of time to deck your place with all things festive. From a miniature Christmas tree (thanks to small HK flats) to turning your home into tinsel town, here’s some places to get Christmas decorations for you to have a holly, jolly Christmas.
Oelili
Sai Kung gem Oelili sells local arts and crafts made by Hong Kongers. The quirky shop sits within SK’s old town and offers an authentic collection of lesser-known artists that are also affordable. If you’re looking for unique gifts too, the founder has a beautiful selection of handmade leather bags to choose from.
G/F, No.7 Tak Lung Front Street, Sai Kung, 9155-8376. Open Tuesday to Sunday 11:00am to 7:00pm.
Make-a-Wish at LANDMARK
Every year, Central goers head to LANDMARK shopping mall to check out the annual Christmas display which sits in the center of the mall. This year, you can share the joy of giving back by buying a Christmas decoration from Make-A-Wish Hong Kong, a charity dedicated to supporting youngsters with critical illnesses.
LANDMARK Shopping Mall, 15 Queen’s Road Central, Central, 2500-0555. Open every day 7:00am to 12:00am.
Stuti Gifts Decor
This local brand specializes in all kinds of gifts and decor, so be sure to explore the newly-unveiled festive collection. It’ll be popping up at plenty of upcoming Christmas markets or you can order yours via DM on Instagram. Think: cute reindeer baubles and Christmas tree candles that will light up the season.
Marks & Spencers
M&S needs no introduction, and for those who have lived in the UK, walking into this store sure feels like home. While you’re stocking up on party food for the coming weeks, you can also indulge in the plethora of Christmas goodies to spice up your home. There’s everything from table decor to mini Christmas trees.

Zara Home
Candles, candles, candles. That’s the majority of what to expect with Zara Home’s new holiday collection, and we couldn’t be more thrilled! These mood setters can really bring together any flat or house and look best in bulk. Go crazy for the traditional long sticks or the mini sets of angel and Christmas tree candles. We’ve also got our eyes on the chic wreaths and Christmas-themed table linen.

VONDELS
This brand was born for Christmas. It’s the brainchild of Yan Xu and Loesje Donner-Raedts and features the most adorable ornaments that are truly one of a kind. We’re talking glittering slot machines, winged polar bears and a car packed with a tree, to name a few – all for hanging on your tree.
Chun Hing Garden
For those blessed with enough home space, get a real Christmas tree from Chun Hing Garden. This place imports its Noble and Douglas Fir trees directly from the US and delivers trees in time for Christmas.
Selfridge’s
If you’re looking to splurge, Selfridge’s is a good option for luxe brands. There’s an endless amount of brands to choose from, but don’t feel overwhelmed – it’s split up into categories and price ranges to make the process all the easier.
Etsy
Support small businesses with Etsy this Christmas. The online marketplace features craftspeople from all over the globe who are getting to work in time for the festive season. You can find something unique and even personalized on this platform.
