When decorating your home for the holidays this season, determining a color scheme is the perfect way to start! Whether your seasonal décor tastes lean toward traditional, whimsical, or modern. Having an established color palette is the perfect guide to creating a thoughtful and cohesive look this holiday season!

CHOOSING THE RIGHT COLOR SCHEME FOR YOU:

Defining a holiday color scheme gives you the perfect opportunity to add some flair to your home this season while expressing your creativity and personal style. When it comes to choosing your holiday color palette, there are an array of color schemes to choose from. You can go neutral, bold, whimsical. As long as you pick a theme and curate pieces whose colors are of similar shades, with a mix of size and texture; anything goes!

RED

You can never go wrong with the timeless holiday color, Red. Whether paired with green, gold, white, or used as a pop of color in a monochromatic color scheme. Red embodies that nostalgic holiday ambiance that effortlessly brings a festive feel to any space.

BLUE

This Blue and White Tree featured at our Jill Rae Designs Studio perfectly exemplifies a white and blue holiday color scheme. You can see we used different shades, sizes, and textures however everything used to decorate this holiday tree falls under our white and blue color palette.

COLORFUL

Whether you’re looking to create a more whimsical feel, prefer working with your home’s existing décor, or crave just a hint of something extra. Opting for a colorful assortment, beyond your traditional Red and Green offers a fun and unexpected twist on holiday decorating while still expressing festive cheer in your home this season!

Neutral

If you prefer a softer aesthetic, a neutral color palette can be just as festive! From winter whites, to earthy, to yuletide metallics of silver and gold. Neutral hues create a cozy atmosphere when combined with touches of gold accents and lush seasonal greenery!
