Christmas Colors

Christmas is a great time (and excuse) to play with colors you don’t usually decorate with in your home.  It also provides a great opportunity to experiment with color combinations and trends.  Red and green tends to be the go-to Christmas color combo, but why not play with some other colors in the crayola box?   Here are a few ideas to inspire you!

blue christmas

I’m thinking next year I’ll have a blue Christmas!  There’s something truly beautiful about a monochromatic color scheme on a Christmas tree.  This tree just looks like peace on earth.
