I had the opportunity to decorate a lovely row house in Kerrisdale, Vancouver. It was a great opportunity to showcase the latest trends in traditional Christmas decor. I started out with a "vanilla gold" tree, and used brown, cream & bronze accents t decorate it. Metallics like gold, silver, bronze & copper are hot colours for Christmas decor. Rather than the usual "brassy" glitter decorations, I used antique glitter decorations, which were more subtle and classy. Another popular detail is natural elements. Twigs, birds, berries and fruit to name a few, is seen much more in all decor, not just Christmas decor
This is, of course, just one of the many schemes that are exciting and new. But watch next year.... you may see more gold trees in the stores.
