The easiest way to begin decorating for Christmas is to pick a color scheme. Seeing as your tree is the star decor of the holiday, it’s smart to use it as a jumping-off point for the rest of your Christmas decorations. To get you started, we’ve laid out some of the best Christmas tree color ideas to try this season.
Red and Green
A classic red and green color scheme always looks good. This Fraser fir trimmed with an angel topper, red ribbon, and ball ornaments is the epitome of timelessness.
Baby Pink
Set up a white frosted tree decked out with different shades of pink ornaments. Use different materials and designs such as ribbons and flowers to complete the look.
Blue and Silver
Elevate a blue with silver for this year Christmas tree. Try to mix blue and silver ornaments with snowflakes, metallic flowers, and white garland.
Purple
Dream up a sophisticated and unexpected design with Christmas tree decorations in various shades of purple. Feature ornaments in different sizes and shapes to create a look that’ll make any visitors stop and stare in awe.
White, Brown and Green
To get a natural, wintry look, use white fluffy ornaments, brown pinecones and decor, and leafy greens. Muted brown little houses and white animals add intrigue to the tree design.
Black and Silver
For a crisp, contrasting look, turn to black and silver. Cover a flocked faux tree with various silver accents and black ball ornaments. Dive deeper into the aesthetic by using a faux white or black tree, or go for an ombré version.
White
White Christmas decor never disappoints. Just take it from this white tree which is covered with white and bronze ornaments, ribbon, lights, beads, and garland. This totally enhances the wintry look.
Gold
Nothing offers a more luxurious feel than gold. Cover your tree in various gold ornaments—from shiny ball ornaments to sparkly snowflakes. Add gold beaded garland and a gold tree topper to finish it off.
Silver
Whether you select a real green tree or a faux one, focus on dressing it with silver accents. From silver ball ornaments and silver beaded garland to silver taper candle ornament holders, there are endless options and combinations you can come up with.
