Deck the Halls with Various Colors (Fa la la la la…)

Use the Thomasville Bedroom Neo Classic Chest 85034-760 as a Christmas element or keep throughout the year, it’s all up to you.

Christmas decoration does not have to default to the red and green theme. This is the holiday season so you have to unleash the inner child and play with colors that you can use in your home. Now let’s find out how pinks, blues, and golds can all give the same (if not an increased) amount of joy that the red and green theme can offer.

Let’s be Blue

At least just with your color theme for this season.

Use the color of the beautiful seas to decorate your home. A nautical holiday look is the perfect look when you use blue ribbons and decorate your Christmas tree with seashells, mermaid ornaments, and little boats. It’s time to deviate from the usual red and green Christmas balls with blinking fairy lights.

This time, redesign with teal blue, especially if you have a young, exciting family. Distribute the hue with green and blue ornaments which overflow on your mantel. Add blue and green chairs to balance the unique look.

Cap the look by hanging a festive artwork right above your living room’s fireplace.

The Inspirational Wallpaper

What is your current wallpaper color? Again, your Christmas home doesn’t always have to be green-or-red-inspired. Now, you can take whatever color your wallpaper has (if there are many, then find the dominant hue). Use this as the anchor color to decorate the rest of your home.

Glamorize with Gold

Even in an already glitzy room, gold is still a welcome sight. This is the color of Nordstrom and Donna Karan, and Calvin Klein, practically every fashionable place or brand that you can find.

But don’t automatically go for the stunning gold. Use a different tint such as rose gold. Think of the holidays as your chance to decorate with subdued enthusiasm (now that’s an exciting oxymoron there). This hue is pretty and is aesthetically easy on the eye.

Use rose gold on your vignette of neutral tones, and a linen table runner.

Uttermost Accessories Benedetto Glass Bottles, S/2 20075 have metallic and purple elements to make your home more exciting this Christmas.

Regally Purple

Purple may not be the first color that comes to anyone’s mind when they are decorating for Christmas but you shouldn’t limit your imagination to just the bright, energetic colors.

Purple is a very regal color and when you decide to use it on your sofa, Christmas balls,  bulbs, and your accent pieces this holiday, then you’re in for a wonderful, fashionable surprise.

How about being different this year by donning a purple Christmas tree? And how about displaying silver bells with purple pinecones? This is an amazing replacement for the usual red and green wreath. And if you’re still feeling up to it, add some sugar plum and silver toy soldiers by the corner.

Purple poinsettias? They are truly amazing!

Or Just be Black and White

Who says that black and white is for any other season ‘cept Christmas? Continue your simple home design during the holidays as you set up pared-down rooms. Most of the time, the festive banner says it all while the rest of the decorative elements remain simple and subdued.

Metallic Christmas

Amp up the usual winter wonderland theme by adding metallic elements. Glittering reindeers and elves are elements that you can use on the mantel. The Christmas tree could be white but the rest of the décor can come in silver, rose gold, and chrome. Use fairy lights to emphasize the shimmering décor.

Try these elements against a white backdrop and you would surely marvel at how your home has become so pleasantly different.

Don’t end the metallic theme with your Christmas tree, metallic balls, and fairy lights. Continue the visually festive scene at your dining table. Use metal-inspired placemats, table runner, napkin rings, and goblets.
