Christmas trees are the main protagonists of the festive end-of-year season. And there is no doubt that it is never too early to start thinking about home decorations. That special time of year when we want everything to look beautiful and perfect… and here are the five trends that we will see most in 2024.
Minimalist Christmas trees
The trend towards minimalism and sustainability that has dominated the 2024 decoration will continue. And for the Christmas days, you can already choose basic but attractive ornaments. Because trees have stopped being, although many of us love them like that, a display of many ornaments and shines. What will be on trend now are limited decoration elements but full of appeal.
We will no longer see trees so full of details that look beautiful, of course. But a trend that is becoming more established is in favor of those that look less ostentatious. This does not make them less attractive, and if you like minimalism, you can choose to have a “subdued,” elegant, simple but enormously attractive tree. There is something for every taste. Of course, the trend is just that, a trend, you decide if you like it for your Christmas decoration setting.
But if you are one of those who love ornaments, Christmases full of details, you can also have that and more. If you like the living room overflowing with colors and more, then you will be happy to know that there is another winning trend that you will love.
Decorating vintage style trees
This is the vintage style decoration. Those Christmas trees from the season postcards, full of garlands, lights, decorative elements. Those that seem to overflow with details and that, of course, are so endearing. As the name suggests, these rely on classic or antique ornaments. Those that we have kept for a long time. And those that clearly have inspiration in the same, because it is also worth noting that there are wonderful collections of vintage inspiration.
The trees that remind us of the glamorous era of the 1950s… maybe a colorful Christmas tree decorated in 1960s style. There is plenty to choose from. And what stands out the most about this trend is that it is a styling for those who enjoy Christmas decoration to the fullest. Those who do not want to skimp on details in that great protagonist of the decoration. So if you like them this way, you can also opt for this trend.
Metallic accents in gold and silver
The colors of Christmas, the classic green and red, are still present in the decoration of Christmas trees in 2024. But the metallic colors, gold and silver, do not give up their prominence. And the accent they give to the decoration, of elegance and shine, you should not overlook. A trend that has been used for decades will continue to be present in 2024.
Choose ornaments in beautiful tones of gold or silver. Creating the decoration of your Christmas tree that can be in just one of these colors combined with a palette of many colors to decorate Christmas trees. And you can also mix them. These colors look fantastic and have all the shine of the end-of-year festivities. So do not deprive yourself of the shine of metals to adorn your little tree.
Garlands for decorating the tree
Also positioned within the trends for decorating Christmas trees in 2024 is the use of garlands. This is something that is always used in Christmas decoration. But among the five trends we have been telling you about, you can choose to place garlands of the most varied materials on your tree. They will not need more decorative elements and will look fantastic with the lights. There is a nice proposal to use garlands made with natural materials such as leaves, dehydrated oranges, and more. And also the option to choose very original garlands such as those made with colorful feathers and more. Originality is another word that defines the Christmas decoration in each home.
Sustainable trees
The sustainability that we now experience in the environment of decoration and way of life, reaches Christmas. Choose natural trees, and forget about the boring models made of plastics and other materials. But make sure they come from controlled forests. Because we want to contribute to the environment. These trees not only look splendid, they aromatize the environment, they have been planted exclusively for their Christmas use. And of course, they contribute to the economy by providing work for many people. Experience sustainability without giving up having a beautiful Christmas decoration.
And these sustainable trees can also be decorated vintage or very modern. And of course, you can make them as “natural” as possible. What do you think of the trend of using natural elements such as garlands made of flowers and dried leaves? Something that you can do yourself at home. Also by placing pine cones, elements made of woods, bamboo, and others.
There is a strong trend for Christmas trees decorated with maximum originality, using macrame. You will find a whole range of artisanal Christmas decorative elements. Made in clay, wood, textiles, and more. You can have the most beautiful… and trendiest tree.
