🎄 July 10 – A Neutral Color Scheme with Holiday Pops
Welcome to Day 10!
Let’s talk about choosing a neutral color base for your holiday decor — with small pops of color for each season. This makes your home feel calm, cozy, and stylish all year long.
🤍 Start with a neutral base:
Use soft, simple colors like:
-
White
-
Beige
-
Gray
-
Wood tones
These colors look beautiful with any holiday and never go out of style.
🎄 Add pops of holiday color:
Once your base is neutral, it’s easy to switch up the look! For Christmas, add:
-
Red or green pillows
-
A plaid blanket
-
Ornaments in a bowl
-
A little greenery or berries
Later, you can trade those for pink in February or yellow in spring — no need to change everything.
This way, your decor stays easy and elegant, and you don’t need big bins of stuff to create the holiday mood!
I am loving your posts, Lucie. Simplifying decor is does eliminate the need for storage. I am actually working on paring down my own decorations. I have most holidays done but oh Fall and Christmas my favorite are so hard for me. I put up so much that when it comes down I don't recognize the house in its every day decor. That tells me I overdid. It is a balancing act. Looking forward more of your posts.
ReplyDeleteI love your posts, Lucie, I am trying to reduce the holiday decoration in my home and this is helpful. I have most holidays pared down but oh Fall and Christmas are so hard. They are my favorite holidays. I know I overdo because when I take it down I takes a while for me to adjust to the normal decor since I having it over decorated for 3-4 months. The garland is the hardest as it is big and bulky to store. I am hoping to find an everyday garland that can be enhanced with winter greens. Every year I see new decor and to keep from purchasing it I as myself is it worth storing out of site for nine months. The neutural decor does well
ReplyDeletebecause all you need to do is add little greenery and Christmas color and your done. Balance is what I am looking for as I get older and am the one that decorates I do not need to go all out.
This is so much what I do - although I've gotten more into red and green in the more recent years. But my Xmas tree used to be done in bulbs of only creams, golds, browns and some deep brownish reds to go with my decor. Now my tree is more reds and golds :)
