We’re only a week away from celebrating Christmas!

For sure, you’ve decorated your home already, but it’s never too late to incorporate popular Christmas decor trends if you want to. And if you haven’t decorated and are coming up with last-minute touch-ups like me, then let’s have a look at some of the most popular Christmas decor trends of 2019.

#1 Plaid patterns are a thing

For a long time, plaid has always been the go-to Holiday pattern. But plaids are making trendy explosions this year. It's a Christmas classic. And who could resist classics? Plus, it also helps that farmhouse-styled interior decor is such a huge hit.

#2 Wrappers using recycled materials

Sustainability and environmental awareness is the biggest issue of 2019. And it's really good that more and more people are aware of the fact that we need to do our fair share to care for our environment. So, it's no surprise that trend experts have embraced the 'green movement' too.

Instead of purchasing new wrapping papers, let your creativity fly and wrap presents using recycled materials. Materials you can use include:

  • Leftover wrapping paper from past years.
  • Wrapping presents with fabric.
  • Using cardboard and cork as ornaments.

#3 Small Christmas trees

Small might be generous. More like tiny.

Tiny Christmas trees are a thing in Pinterest. It's not far-fetched to say that most people flock to Pinterest to search for inspiration with their decor too. Pins related to tiny Christmas trees have gone up 50% compared to last season.

These tiny trees would look great as temporary substitutes to your normal all-year round indoor houseplants. They definitely bring that festive air to a room coupled with the rest of your Christmas decor.

#4 Floral Christmas trees

The traditional Christmas tree decked out with cute baubles, boas, and other sentimental ornaments are slowly taking a back seat. And that's because some people are opting for floral Christmas trees this year.

It's not a bad design, really. And plus, it definitely looks good and is worth a try for people who want to do something different with their decor.

It's certainly not odd to see a Christmas tree decorated in white, pink, red, purple, and gold faux flowers. Paired with the classic evergreen tree, and finished off with your favorite family ornaments, a floral Christmas tree shows off something fresh and completely new.

#5 More red and more white

Now let's swing to the other side of the spectrum. If you're really big on tradition, then go for red and white decor. I know that red and green are Holiday staples, but one simply can't go wrong with pairing red and white.

It's a lovely spin and deviation from the usual. Besides, who doesn't like a white Christmas?

For this reason, evergreen trees dusted with faux snow is also a lovely idea.

#6 Neutral palettes

From farmhouse whites, to contemporary gray, and mid-century modern black. Neutral decor and interior style isn't going anywhere in 2020, and it certainly stayed to make its mark in 2019. That's why it's safe to say that neutral decor for Christmas is also in.

Know that the best Christmas decors are the kinds that match your already existing color scheme. You don't have to go all-out on the Holiday colors if you don't want to. Don't hesitate to mix and match your designs with white, black, cream, gray, navy, natural wood tones, etc.

#7 Bohemian Christmas decor

Maximalist interior decor was an awesome phenomenon this year. And closely related to the eclectic nature of maximalism is Boho interior decor. Boho is all about being eccentric, and not being afraid to incorporate textures and vibrant colors.

Boho Christmas decor means including handmade accents in colors, to communicate personality. Think hand-knit stockings, rugs with patterns, or wall art with lovely textures.

Deck the Halls in Style!

Keeping your eye on emerging trends is not bad. But it doesn't mean you have to rehaul your house's entire Christmas decorations. You can always try a bit of the trends this year, and switch back to your favored ones next year.

Nevertheless, don't be afraid to try these things out. Because who knows, you might like them more than you thought.
