Never too early to start thinking about your Christmas decorations for the upcoming holiday season, right? For those who love Christmas in a modern twist, we list the 2018 Christmas trends:

Christmas trends: color outside the lines

Traditional green, red and gold always works, of course. Not a fan of a traditional Christmas? Then go for this fall’s contemporary trends and think out-of-the-box with color. Atypical colors are a big Christmas trend in 2018.

Pink

Yep, even pink Christmas decorations are hip this year. Do not use bright pink, but go for softer varieties such as golden pink, soft pink, dusty pink, champagne or blush. This way you will celebrate Christmas in the most dreamy and romantic atmosphere. Pink comes out best if you don’t overdo it: so keep it to subtle details.

Jewel tones

Think “luxury” and you’re in the right place this fall. Sapphire blue, emerald green, ruby red… The rich, vibrant colors give your home a touch of glamour, an elegant feel and above all a cozy, warm Christmas atmosphere. Use the shades for Christmas decorations on your Christmas tree, or subtly incorporate them into your interior with shiny plaids or pillowcases made of soft velvet.

White

For a white Christmas, you don’t necessarily need snow. This fall, shades of white are one of the trends for Christmas. White Christmas decorations give a timeless, stylish and Scandinavian look. Moreover, white creates tranquility. And let that be just what you need in a busy Christmas season, no?

Christmas trends: Contemporary Christmas

Our interiors are becoming more and more modern. So why not change our Christmas decorations as well? No fake snow in the bushes, Santa Clauses against the facade or kitschy baubles. This year, think urban, minimal and one with nature.

Urban Christmas

Glass, metal and even concrete: a contemporary interior calls for contemporary Christmas decorations. Christmas decorations in simple, geometric shapes are ubiquitous in the 2018 Christmas collections. One advantage of modern Christmas decorations? Metal figurines reflect light, giving that extra sparkle on dark days.

Minimal

Like the color white, this trend comes over from Scandinavia. Less is more is the common thread in a minimalist Christmas interior. No overloaded Christmas tree, but a carefully selected garland or a few eye-catching baubles. Especially in a small home, this style works.

Natural

With natural materials, green elements, branches and paper Christmas accessories, your home will be bathed in a cool yet cozy and homey atmosphere. Use candles instead of LED lights and decorate your table with finds from the garden. Are you creative or do you have green fingers? Then you can make your own wreath for the front door or on the wall. As long as it’s all natural.
