No one does Christmas (or anything for that matter) quite like the royals. Exhibit A: the decorations they’ve put up at Buckingham Palace this year.
In a video posted to the Royal Family Instagram, Christmas is in full swing at Queen Elizabeth’s crib. There’s a half-dozen giant fir trees decorated in tiny lights and little fabric crown ornaments at the top of a staircase and lining the entryway. The royals also opted for a giant green garland wrapping around the grand staircase with multicolored glass baubles and dark-red velvet bows.
So where do they find all these lovely adornments? Nope, it’s not from outside their local Wegman’s (although, they wish). According to the caption, the decorations are actually sourced from Windsor Castle (where Meghan Markle and Prince Harry got married in May), with its sprawling grounds and 13 acres. It’s said to be the queen’s “country” and “weekend” home for this reason.
Yep, the royals get their Christmas decor from their own…forests. (Royals, they’re nothing like us.)
