Christmas decor color scheme choice ideas

Colors affect our mood and choosing a particular palette will set the overall mood and atmosphere in the home. Do you want a bright and merry Christmas decoration? Or perhaps something glamorous? Maybe rustic or something that invites you for a quiet time of relaxing? Colors will help you! Traditional winter season colors like red and green, blue, white, brown, pastel shades – you can use any of these. When choosing the shades, pay attention to the fact that they should be in harmony with the interior of the house. Do not forget to add accents to your color scheme, for example, traditional red and green are brilliantly complemented by silver or gold.

Decorate the Christmas tree

What is Christmas without a tree? It is the main element, the focal point of the decor. But this does not mean that you need to hang all the ornaments that you have. Choose only those that combine with the basic color of the design and harmonize with the interior. Even if you do not want a large tree, you can decorate a small one and place it in a corner. It can be either classic green, or white, even pink or blue. It all depends on personal preference. Tabletop Christmas trees are another great option as a last minute decor.

Christmas fairy lights

Christmas fairy lights add to the atmosphere and cheerful mood

Lights are perceived as something magical, although everyone understands that this is just electricity. And Christmas is rich in magic! String lights on the windows, on the Christmas tree, on the mantel – let there be a lot of lights! The more lights there are, the greater the chance of raising the festive Christmas mood. Just make sure that they are not flashing and distracting.

Light the fire and add candles
