4 Trendy Christmas Decor Ideas for a Cozy & Chic Holiday
‘Tis the season when the home decor aisle is brimming with smiling Santa figurines, fluffy garlands, and glittery tree ornaments. But should all our holiday decorations look the same? After all, the best kind of homes are styled to our unique tastes and preferences. That’s why this season, we’re bringing you four holiday decorating themes that complement your year-round style.
A Modern & Elegant Christmas
For lovers of contemporary and minimalist Christmas decor, the holidays can feel quite overwhelming. Instead of the traditional cherry red and bright green of the season, go for muted tones that feel more like you. Think cream, chocolate brown, and forest green. Anchor your space with curvy chairs and velvet ottomans that exude sophistication but also offer cozy comfort. Then, top it all off with earthy botanicals and sculptural decor for a hint of magical sparkle.
A Classic & Joyful Christmas
Want to design a home that’s straight out of a Hallmark movie? Go all in on the holiday spirit with a candy cane color scheme that feels merry and bright. When it comes to this nostalgic and inviting look, there’s no such thing as too many holiday references and trinkets. So feel free to pile on the traditional Christmas ornaments, seasonal throw pillows, and any family heirlooms that can layer onto the vintage and old-timey charm of a classic Christmas style.
A Whimsical & Glam Christmas
Winter color palettes are all about dark, moody colors. And this year we’re embracing these unlikely hues in our Christmas decorating with wine red and forest green pieces that make our homes feel luxurious. But there’s also a fun side to glam style — glitzy shine. Incorporate gleaming gold candle holders, glittering ornaments, and pre-lit trees and wreaths. Bonus points if your greenery is frocked for romantic visions of a white wonderland.
A Rustic & Earthy Christmas
With the rise of modern farmhouse and cottagecore styles, natural-inspired Christmas decor have taken over our vision boards. Besides the requisite Christmas tree, we encourage adding other Christmas botanicals, from holly branches to wreaths to pine cone accents that evoke an enchanted evergreen forest vibe. You can also dial up nostalgic, homey comfort with natural textures like this furry reading chair or chunky knitted stockings.
