3 Stunning Christmas Decor Trends That'll Be Taking Over This Season

If you decorate your home for Christmas as soon as Thanksgiving week is over, getting your decorations in order might be at the top of your priority list. While the decorations will depend on how you and your family celebrate the holidays, you wouldn't want to miss out on decor trending this season. However, you may not have the time or inclination to look them up. So, we've identified the top three stunning Christmas decor trends that'll be taking over this season. Headlining the list is Chrome-mas. An ode to everything metallic and shiny, chrome decor is going to be everywhere this holiday season. In fact, Etsy's 2024 Holiday Trend Guide shows that it was searched nearly 3,800 percent over last year.

Another hot trend is the use of unexpected colors in Christmas decor. Jewel tones, like burgundy, emerald green, sapphire blue, amethyst purple, and citrine yellow (read: golden), are in and will add life to your winter wonderland. This is especially good news for individuals wanting to move away from traditional shades, like red, white, and green. The third trend is a blend of vintage and retro decor elements. It aims to evoke nostalgia, giving you free reign to use pieces that have sentimental value. There's also an increased focus on sweet treats, so feel free to decorate your home with a few candy-shaped decor pieces. Think beyond candy cane and deck your home in decadent marshmallows, glitter-y donuts, and rich cake slices (yum!).

Being aware of the top three Christmas trends won't be of much use if you don't know how to incorporate the decorations in your home. To elaborate, Chrome-mas is all about embracing your sparkly personality and giving it free reign over your decor decisions. This means relying on metallic tones more than neutral or pastel shades and favoring shiny objects. For instance, you can add layers of golden and silver-accented tinsels on your conifers and use reflective decorations, like mirror-esque tree ornaments, around your home. Additionally, 70s-inspired disco balls are in vogue and can help add some shine to your X-mas and new year celebrations. Want to go all-out? Here are a few tips for incorporating the disco Christmas trend into your holiday decor.

However, if you prefer something a bit more subtle, get jewel-toned decorations for your home. The shades will lend your interiors a comforting touch and will serve as a natural conversation starter. So, grab some eye-popping tree ornaments, jewel shade candles, table linens, and other decorations to incorporate the trend. For a more dramatic look, display them against brilliant golden or sparkling silver ornaments. To root your celebrations in tradition and pleasant memories of the bygone era, rely on vintage holiday decorations. Bring out the hand-knit stockings, floral dinnerware, and kitschy tree ornaments your grandma left behind. The goal is to use decor that's been in the family for years and holds sentimental value. In case you don't have anything as such, buy vintage-like decor or make 2024's hottest Christmas ornaments on your own.
