It's not Christmas without a beautifully decorated tree, and this is especially true for small living rooms. When it comes to choosing a Christmas tree for a small space, opt for a slim or miniature tree that won't take up too much floor space. You can also consider a wall-mounted tree or a tabletop tree. Don't forget to add some twinkling lights and your favorite ornaments for a festive touch.

If your small living room has a fireplace, it's the perfect spot to add some Christmas decorations. Hang a garland with string lights above the mantel and add some stockings for a traditional Christmas look. You can also place some candles or a mini village on the mantel for a cozy ambiance. Don't have a fireplace? You can create a faux mantel using a shelf or a bookcase and decorate it with the same elements.

You can also add some fake snow or cotton wool to give it a wintery feel.
