Beautiful Decorative and Musical Christmas Trees!

The Best Tabletop Christmas Trees!

If, like me, you love to decorate at Christmas, then chances are you love an eye-catching centerpiece! And what better festive ornament than one of these - a stunning, collectible tabletop Christmas tree to bring cheer and beauty to your Christmas display!

From Disney to Thomas Kinkade, traditional to quirky, there are lots of beautiful ornamental trees to choose from, many of them musical to add that extra bit of Christmas magic. This page highlights ten of the best Tabletop Christmas Trees to help you choose the right one for your festive decorating!

Thomas Kinkade Wonderland Express Tabletop Christmas Tree

Thomas Kinkade Wonderland Express Tree

Quite possibly the ultimate in tabletop Christmas trees! This is the Thomas Kinkade Wonderland Express Animated Tabletop Christmas Tree With Train - complete with lights, music and moving trains!

It showcases four levels of rotating movement - including Santa and his sleigh - you'll watch as the train "climbs" ever higher up the tree and notice 12 brilliantly illuminated buildings and over 2 dozen handcrafted figures.

Meticulously crafted and painted by hand, and lavished with a blanket of glitter-touched snow for holiday cheer. It plays a medley of Christmas carols as the train moves around the tree.

Wonderful World of Disney Tabletop Christmas Tree

Disney Tabletop Christmas Tree

We continue with this beautiful Wonderful World Of Disney Christmas Tree, a Collectible Disney Tabletop Christmas Decor.

This is a perfect choice if you have kids (or are a big kid yourself!) - combine the magic of Christmas with the magic of Mickey, Minnie and friends! This tabletop Christmas tree features lights, music and motion and will be a much-treasured decorative Christmas ornament for years to come.

This spectacular tabletop Disney Christmas decor brings together Mickey and Minnie, Donald Duck, Snow White and more to deliver the joys of the holidays in your home. Standing 16" high and decorated with over 50 hand-painted Disney character figures, this animated tabletop Christmas decoration is available from Hawthorne Village.With 4 levels of rotating movement, the Disney Express seems to "climb" ever higher up the tree, brilliantly lit by 20 LED lights. At the very top, Mickey's at the reins of a Pluto-and-reindeer drawn sleigh that rotates around Cinderella's magic castle. A medley of Christmas carols makes the festivities complete.

Thomas Kinkade Talking Nativity Tabletop Christmas Tree

Thomas Kinkade Talking Nativity tree

Another wonderful family collectible is this incredible Nativity Tree Tabletop Centerpiece Presented And Narrated By Thomas Kinkade.

This impressive tabletop Christmas tree display is intricately hand-sculpted and hand-painted to reveal 8 scenes in the Nativity Story. Artist Thomas Kinkade personally narrates the tale through a Scriptural passage to accompany each detailed scene, which gently illuminates, then fades, as the story continues. What's more, as he speaks, the soothing melody of Silent Night plays in the background, creating the perfect Christmas ambience. A mahogany-finish wooden base with brass title plate makes the perfect finishing touch.

30 LEDs light up and fade out each scene, as well as illuminate the Star of the East topper. Diamond dust glitter captures an antique elegance!

Seraphim Classics Illuminated Angel Tabletop Christmas Tree

Seraphim Classics Angel Tree

I love angels, and have lots of special ones that I put out at Christmas, from merry little cherubs, to beautiful vintage treasures. So I really love this angel tree.

The Seraphim Classics Illuminated Angel Tree includes 12 authentic Seraphim Classics® angels, recreated from the original works of master sculptor-artist Gaylord Ho! There are also 32 glowing LED lights, golden bead roping, bows, doves and more. Tucked under the tree you'll find gift packages, beautifully arranged on a sparkling "snow"-covered base.

This beautiful angel tabletop Christmas tree is topped by a replica of one of the most popular Seraphim Angels, "Annalisa, Joyful Spirit."

Definitely one of my personal favourites!

Illuminated Musical Thomas Kinkade Snowfall Nativity Tabletop Christmas Tree

Thomas Kinkade Swirling Snow Tree

Combine a stunning tabletop Christmas tree with an equally stunning snowglobe, and you get this - the beautiful Thomas Kinkade Silent Night Nativity Tabletop Christmas Tree With Swirling Snow.

This was the first-ever musical Nativity tabletop tree presented by Thomas Kinkade. The Nativity scene is nestled within a beautiful crystalline dome filled with sparkling "swirling snow." The story of the nativity is told through 15 sculpted figurines, including the Holy Family, 3 Wise Men, and angels holding lanterns and playing instruments.

This Bradford Exchange exclusive is handcrafted and illuminated by 25 golden LED lights. The "snow covered" tree is decorated with golden garland, a banner reading, "Unto Us A Child Is Born," and topped with a crystalline star, and it plays the beloved Christmas song, "Silent Night."

Nativity Scene Tabletop Christmas Tree Collection

Nativity Scene Christmas Tree

I love nativities, and like mine to be central to the annual decorations. It can be quite hard to find a really nice one these days, so this tree is perfect if you want to make yours stand out and bring your decor to life!

The Tabletop Christmas Nativity Scene Christmas Tree Collection comes in separate issues and includes over 50 Nativity scene figurines and angel ornaments!

The collection starts with Issue One, the Holy Family and Nativity figurine 10-piece set. Issue Two will feature a pre-lit Nativity Christmas tree and base that reflects the spirit of the season. Later, the collection will continue with an additional collectible 10-piece Nativity figurine and angel ornament sets, each set a separate issue to follow.

The tree is 3 foot high and plays "Silent Night".

Thomas Kinkade Illuminated Advent Tabletop Tree With Santa

Thomas Kinkade Santa Advent Tree

Another design from Thomas Kinkade. This tabletop Christmas tree has two wonderful elements for me - firstly, it features a lovely, jolly Santa next to the tree, and secondly, it's an advent tree!

The Thomas Kinkade Illuminated Advent Tabletop Christmas Tree includes beautiful handcrafted miniature ornaments inspired by the artist's beloved work. Angels, Victorian homes - even the artist's trademark lanterns - are yours to place on the tree as you mark each day of Advent.

The fully sculpted and handcrafted tree illuminates with 25 golden LED lights and the crystalline star topper imparts a festive holiday glow. Santa Claus is hand-painted and attractively detailed with golden enhancements, and the tree also includes a free storage box with space for each of the 24 ornaments.

Elvis Blue Christmas Tabletop Christmas Tree

Elvis Blue Christmas Tree

Fancy something a little bit different and quirky in your Christmas display this year? Then how about this Elvis Presley Light-Up Porcelain Tabletop Christmas Tree: Blue Christmas?

A Bradford Exchange exclusive, this tree invokes the generous holiday spirit and warm, sparkling charm of Elvis. Aglow with over 100 sparkling faceted gems and gleaming 22K gold, this distinctive, hand-crafted Elvis Christmas collectible rotates as it plays the nostalgic melody of "Blue Christmas". Soulful portraits of Elvis by acclaimed celebrity artist Nate Giorgio, adorn the celestial blue boughs. Golden light shines from ten star-shaped cutouts. There are even presents from Elvis under the tree - a guitar, teddy bear, gold records, a pink Cadillac and blue suede shoes!

This would make a superb gift for Elvis fanatics!

Rudolph's "Christmas Town" Tabletop Christmas Tree

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

You can't have a Christmas display without Rudolph! This limited edition Rudolph And Friends Animated Christmas Town Express Train Tabletop Christmas Tree is sculpted and hand-painted, and comes with 25 favorite characters.

There is an animated moving "Christmas Express" train driven by an elf, that actually circles the base of the tree! There are also 25 LED lights, and as if that wasn't enough, Rudolph's nose glows too!

Based on the holiday TV special "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", you will find nestled among the snow-sparkling branches a host of the film's Island of Misfit Toys characters - Rudolph, Clarice, Hermey, Sam the Snowman and Bumble the Abominable Snowmonster.

A lovely, joyful centerpiece tree that brings holiday cheer and festive spirit.

Looney Tunes "Oh Cwistmas Twee" Tabletop Christmas Tree

Looney Tunes Christmas Tree

Last but by no means least, another cute tree to finish our trip through the best of this year's tabletop Christmas trees!
