Which Holiday Color are you?

 

Do you always decorate for the holidays in the same color? Or, do you like to switch things up, like I do? One year we might have a classic Red & Green Christmas, the next, all white, some years have been “golden”", others pastel. Let these photos inspire you. Be brave. Sometimes a new color added is all that your home needs to glow  brightly for the season!

No matter what colors you choose, the time and love you spend decorating your home will show. Let me know what colors you used this year, I’d love to hear from you!

    I have Turquoise and silver on a white tree in my sitting room , A white tree with all red in the hall , and a green tree with purple and silver in the conservatory . It was going to be purple and gold in the conservatry but I gave all my gold stuff to someone who needed decorations .

    Do I love christmas ? You bet I do .

    MERRY CHRISTMAS! Thanks for a lot of inspiration, always.

    I change up the decor every year or two. This year, red and silver with a Disney theme. Next year I’m switching back to Mardi Gras colors. Love the room with the two leather sofas face to face!

    You are so right, Sonny. It always comes around way faser than I think, so you are smart to be gathering inspiration right NOW.

    The tree this year is white with old world and Victorian ornaments shades of pink and champagne. As always ‘Gingerbread Village’ in the kitchen .

    I’m using blue, beige and white for our holiday decor this season. I love the white Christmas tree on the dessert table pictured above. So elegant for a winter party…

    Ruth, your decorations sound a lot like ours. In our living room I have a huge tree with antique ornaments. But the kitchen, where we eat Christmas breakfast, that’s where the kids reign supreme! Gingerbread too, and our little village covered in snow. Merry Christmas, Ruth. xo

    I agree, and although it looks so elegant, it’s really pretty simple to do! Merry Christmas, Lisa. xo Lidy

    Kathleen, your Christmas sounds gorgeous. And so many trees, lots of beauty surrounds you and those you love. Slightly yearning for a conservatory myself, I bet that’s stunning. Merry Christmas, Kathleen. xo
