Like with any other decoration concept, balance is the key word. Choosing a main color – whether pink, white, blue, turquoise, purple – means that you will set a main color palette. Choose two complimentary colors and make sure you do not overdo the decoration, otherwise it may look kitschy or even distasteful. An exception is if you decorate a child’s room, as kids love colors and in a Candy land Christmas decor you can combine multiple colors. However, keeping to a main color palette and complementary shades is always better. You may think that this would limit your options, but here are just a few combinations that you may use – combine pastel pink with white and silver, two shades of purple will work beautifully with both gold and silver, blue and turquoise work harmoniously with white and silver, you can mix pastel pink and blue with white, so you see – there are many options.
