Perhaps you've avoided buying Christmas decor since getting out on your own (even if it's been like, a decade, we won't judge). Don't let a lack of ornaments, garlands, and tinsel prevent you from achieving that dream of a perfectly glowing tree (even if the apartment can only handle a two-footer). So while you put in the work figuring out where to buy and how to transport those pine needles, we've assembled a handy map for hunting down holiday flair.

What really caught our eye are the metallic decorative bottle brush trees (a set of four rings in at $64). [Photo by Flagship Photo]
