If you’ve been too caught up with other matters and your home isn’t yet decked
out in Christmas decorations, don’t fret even if it’s already December! You still
have time to catch up and get your house ready for the most wonderful time of
the year.

For those who celebrate the Yuletide Season in the true spirit of the holiday,
Christmas decorations play a significant role. You can enhance your overall
experience as well as spread the holiday cheer by filling your home with festive
decorations such as sparkly parol (five-pointed star lantern), bright fairy lights,
and a dazzling Christmas tree or two or three depending on the size of your
home.

Celebrating the Holidays in Metro Manila

Pasko is a Tagalog word derived from the Spanish term “Pascua.” While the
actual meaning of Pascua is Easter, the phrase “Pascua de Navidad” refers to
the celebration of Christmas.

The Philippines is known for having the world’s longest Christmas season. The
four months whose names end in the syllable “-ber” are considered Christmas
months. This is the main reason why stores and households begin playing carols
as early as September 1st! And the Christmas festivities don’t only last until the
31st of December. They extend until the Feast of the Three Kings (Tatlong Hari),
which generally falls every 6th of January.

We’ve rounded up a list of the top stores in Metro Manila where you can get the

Kultura

One of the most ideal stores to find native-inspired, Pinoy-made Christmas
decorations. Kultura has been selling “proudly Pinoy” goods for many years now.
These decorations also make wonderful gifts for overseas Filipinos and
foreigners who appreciate our culture. Do check out their candlesticks and
lanterns and a variety of holiday products such as nativity scenes, household
ornaments, as well as greeting cards.

Dapitan Arcade

This is one of Quezon City’s most sought-after spots for every sort of Christmas
decoration. Few establishments, if there are any, which could beat the place
when it comes to handmade Christmas items as a specialty, much less offer
them year-round. The tiangge near the intersection of Dapitan and Kanlaon
Streets in Barangay Sta. Teresita is the place to go if you’re looking for rare finds
to embellish your home such as Christmas-themed fabrics, coordinating festive
plates, and other utensils.

Address: 37 Dapitan Corner Kanlaon Streets, Quezon City, 1114 Metro Manila
Christmas Factory
Its name pretty much says it all. Christmas Factory is one of the most well-known
stores in Metro Manila for Christmas decorations and novelty things. Although
the shop appears to specialize in Santa Claus-themed products such as hangers
and tabletop figurines, other well-liked items include Christmas balls, and
porcelain and fiberglass elves.

The store prides itself on its finely crafted goods and being able to offer many
fantastic deals each year, including early-bird discounts for customers who buy
their Christmas decorations and other items as early as the first quarter of the
year.

Address: 565 AH Lacson Street, Sampaloc Manila

Natural Art Flowers and Decors

If you’re a homeowner who wants Christmas decorations that exhibit a more
natural flair, this local shop is your best bet. While Natural Art Flowers and
Decors has grown to provide event planning and flower arrangement services, it
still primarily imports and sells holiday décor.

Nearly all kinds of Christmas decorations can be found in this shop, from
poinsettias, pine sprays, and dazzling lights to complement Christmas trees to
Santa Claus and snowman statuettes, village cottages, as well as candy canes to
adorn desks and kitchen countertops.

Address: 801 Tayuman corner G. Perfecto Streets., Tondo, Manila

Chrysara Nest

This is a creative manufacturer and product development workshop with a focus
on decorative houseware, accessories, and presents. Chrysara Nest is well
known for its exquisitely handcrafted home décor, tiny furniture, interior
accessories, and fine giftware. Among them are ornaments for Christmas that
are both special and ageless.

The Pampanga-based Chrysara workshop originally planned to be an export

business that specializes in wholesale products. To better serve Metro Manila
customers, it launched its own retail location in Mandaluyong in 2013.

Lanai

products as well as festive scented candles.

Are you looking for plastic Christmas decorations that look realistic? More than a
thousand fake plants and flowers can be found at Ingarden, along with dark
gothic holiday decorations, vases, and planters, as well as authentic Christmas
trees. Additionally, this company offers interior design solutions for both
residential and commercial buildings including hotels, showrooms, and shop
windows. The store has established its reputation, thanks to endorsements from
well-known personalities such as Kris Aquino, Heart Evangelista, and Sharon
Cuneta.

Divisoria

Divisoria is undeniably one of Manila’s most well-known one-stop shops.
Everything Christmas-related, including trees, lights, and decorations as well as
gifts, costumes, and cards can be bought here at extremely affordable prices.
Divisoria also offers inexpensive raw materials for those who enjoy making their
own Christmas decorations.

Shopping here can be advantageous if one knows how to haggle because doing
so can result in further reduction in already-competitive prices.

Address: Recto Avenue, Binondo, Manila

Anding’s Toys and Flowers

Another convenient location to fulfill your demands for holiday shopping and
Christmas décor is Anding’s Toys and Flowers. It provides a wide range of
Christmas goods including trees, socks, garlands, and ornaments.

Anding’s also sells a variety of toys such as dolls, puzzles, remote-control cars,
helicopters, and board games. They also offer athletic goods, a variety of artificial
tropical flowers, foliage, plants, and trees. In Manila, Anding’s runs several retail
and wholesale locations, including a couple in Tutuban Center and the Bodega
Sales Center.

Address: Sta. Elena Street, Tondo, Manila

Greenhills Shopping Center

This remains as one of the go-to choices for shoppers seeking items that are less
expensive compared to those in regular malls and department stores, although
they aren’t quite as inexpensive as in Divisoria. The air-conditioned tianggehan is
a stop for practically all shopping requirements, including Christmas decorations
and gifts.

Aside from Shoppesville and the tiangge areas, Virra Mall also offers shoppers
even more Christmas décor alternatives. While you’re there, you can take a
breather in one of the many eateries in the place or even see a movie at the
theater. There is also the annual Christmas On Display light show held later in
the holiday season.
