10 Christmas Color Schemes - Christmas Decoration Ideas

As Christmas is slowly coming to our mind, we start to think what color of decoration to use this year? The key to successful Christmas decor lies in the proper color scheme. In order to choose a proper color I always think about what colors I already have in my house. So I can use colors that match or nicely contrast our interior design. To create harmonious look I think about what look and mood I want to achieve.

Which colors I`m going to use this year? Most likely it`s going to be white and pastels in my living room and red and white in dining room and kitchen. :)

1. White on White

White on white Christmas decor is great for a very frosty look. Silver, metallic or glass can add shimmer to the room and make holiday appearance more festive. A muted palette of whites and soft grays allows little details to take center stage. To make this scheme shine, use different textures and materials.

2. White and Pastels 

If you like neutrals, use white and pastel Christmas decorations and you`ll achieve beautiful, romantic and elegant feel in your home. If you need inspiration, go check some of the most beautiful ideas on the French Country Cottage, Craftberry Bush or Pinterest.

3. White and Brown  

Play up a neutral living room for the holidays with brown, gold, and silver accents. A frosted Christmas tree will be amazing with oversize silver and gold ornaments and white and brown wrapped packages placed neatly beneath the tree. On a coffee table place apothecary jars filled with Christmas cookies and decorate with candies and greenery.

4.White and Blue

Perfect way to mimic the icy colors of winter is to use blue and white Christmas color scheme. Accent Christmas tree with blue velvet ribbon and place clear and blue apothecary jars or bottles on the mantel for cool pops of color. Hang light blue stockings from your mantel and add packages wrapped in blue and white to complete the color scheme.

5. Silver and Gold 

Christmas decor will absolutely shine with this pretty silver and gold color scheme. Mantel decorated with a silver and gold ornament ball wreath, cream stockings and greenery will make a focal point in the room. On a coffee table add cloches and apothecary jars filled with left over ornaments for decorative touch. Adorn a frosty Christmas tree with silver, gold, and white ornaments and display gorgeous wrapped packages to create a festive look that sparkles.

6. Red, White, and Green 

If you prefer a more traditional approach to Christmas decorating, red and white color scheme with pops of green are perfect choice. This scheme makes every home feel festive and fun. Play up with holiday poinsettias, a ceramic dish filled with red and white ornaments in different shapes and sizes, and adorn your sofa with holiday inspired accent pillows and cosy blanket for a total holiday look.

7. Black and White (with Gold)

Modern approach to decorating for Christmas in black and white will be perfect for minimalism lovers. Elegance of black and white will be enchanted if you add a little touch of gold.  Overall impression will be festive but yet moderate. Play this combination with black and white striped ribbon wrapped around a flocked Christmas tree and decorated with interesting ornaments.

8. Country Charm Color Scheme

Want country charm in your living room for Christmas? Use burlap banners, galvanized bucket and lantern ornaments. Make original and lovely ornaments by creating custom tags with written messages or photos. Play up with great finds like vintage window frame. Dress it up with a boxwood wreath, a group of bottlebrush trees, and a few fresh magnolia leaves. Accent with grouping of shiny mercury glass pieces.

9. Rustic Color Scheme

By using wooden ornaments, dried flowers, leaves, wooden beads, sticks and pine codes you can provide a rustic color theme in your home. Use a hint of evergreen to give life to the decor. Cover the Christmas tree with wooden ornaments to enhance the overall rustic color scheme. Use golden color to make more festive look and white to provide a contrasting effect. 

10. Multicolor 

If the room is decorated in neutrals and pastels Christmas decorations can be a great way to add a splash of color and enjoy bright shades for holidays. Choose reds, purples, aqua, royal blue and pinks. Benefit: no need to bye new ornaments and decorations. Just use all your holiday ornaments like Santa, snowflakes, balls and stockings to create a super festive and fun tree.
