Transforming Your Christmas Tree with White Decor
Are you a fan of white Christmas trees? They offer a bold and sophisticated alternative to the traditional green ones. However, decorating a white Christmas tree requires some finesse. Let’s explore the secrets to make your tree look like it came straight from a snowy forest this year. Oh, White Christmas…
The Secret of Color
White Christmas trees can either be completely white or have a hint of green to simulate a snow-covered look. The effect is entirely different, and the decorations that suit each type also vary. Let’s start with the latter type of white Christmas tree: the one with visible green branches. How to decorate such a tree? Here are three beautiful ornament ideas, which one will you choose?
- A White and Sweet Christmas in white, red, and cookie: these three colors blend perfectly for decorating a white Christmas tree. Use details like white matte balls, white and red candy canes, and gingerbread figures in various shapes – from gingerbread men to houses or stars. Yum…
- Frozen-style, in blue, blush pink, and silver: if you have young children, they will surely enjoy decorating and humming “Let it go.” Ideal Christmas tree ornaments for this theme include pastel blue and aged silver balls, snowflakes, and stars. A Nordic and romantic style!
- The Alps at home: for a rustic white Christmas tree, opt for wooden, raffia, and brass ornaments. Balls wrapped in twine and figures like reindeer, houses, sleighs, elves, or trees.
Elegant White and Silver Decor
This style is more subdued and colder than the previous one but very elegant. The best Christmas decorations for your white tree are a mix of deep blue, aged silver, and various gray balls and figures. To add warmth, use light garlands. You can mix two: one with cool white light and another with warmer white light. This will create a beautiful frosted branch effect. If you’re concerned about it cooling the ambiance too much, consider downsizing your tree: a small Christmas tree in these tones on a console will look lovely and won’t dominate the space.
White and Gold: The Warmest Touch
A white and gold Christmas tree is undoubtedly the most classic and dazzling version. Opt for classic ornaments like balls, stars, and pine cones. To keep it elegant and avoid looking outdated, choose matte and aged golds, along with other coppery-colored ornaments, combined with snow white and off-white. Perfect.
Tip: When decorating your Christmas tree with lights, ensure that the light garland has a white or transparent cable to blend well among the branches.
