Tis the season for twinkling lights and the scent of pine; pulling out all our keepsake ornaments out of storage and lighting up the fireplace. As Christmas and New Years draw near we can’t help wanting to deck out our homes to match all the festive feelings these Holidays bring.
We at On Madison love Holiday decorating but we also know how tacky Christmas-time red and green can be when done wrong (think ugly Christmas sweaters). So we’ve compiled a collage to remind you that Christmas doesn’t always have to be all things red and green.
A few suggestions, as pictured below: why not try some metallic neutrals, patterns and textures to bring a bit of modernity into the traditional. They’re festive and luxurious without being loud or obnoxious. Minimal, geometric ornaments done in brass, silver, and gunmetal are a sophisticated twist on regular old glass bulbs, and we just LOVE bringing out blue and white chinoiserie as a key player in Christmas decorating.
We hope the ideas below will inspire you to up your holiday game this year and deck the halls in true On Madison fashion. Cheers!
