Presents are never arranged that neatly around here...

Nice start. Lighting seems off though. It looks like you have a high 
ambient value for the scene...there is barely any shading on any of the 
objects, especially on the tree pot and presents. The reflective 
wrappings are a bit too mirror-like...try adding a slight wrinkles 
normal. Move the presents around a bit and fix the lighting, and it 
would look much better. The tree looks odd...I guess the gray is 
supposed to be artificial snow, but maybe make it more unevenly covered, 
and the bark looks too light. Also, there are some stone wall macros and 
scenes around that you might find useful for the fireplace. And if you 
could get the tree to taper more naturally instead of being a perfect 
cone, it would look much better. And some randomness to the tinsel 
arrangement...
