Your Christmas will be a trendy one with these 16 decoration styles
The arrival of Christmas brings with it the desire to decorate our homes for the holidays to make them more welcoming.
Christmas is, for most of us, not just a single day on the calendar, but an entire period spent with family and decorating the house. Holiday decorations help us get into the right festive mood, immediately uplifting our spirits as we enter our homes and helping us to leave behind our stress and troubles.
When the time comes to decorate our homes for the holidays, we can choose to bring out our old decorations from the garage or attic and reuse them. Or we can change the look of our homes by buying new decorations or modifying the existing ones to better suit the latest trends.
If you feel like trying something new this year, we outline 16 decoration trends which are in vogue for this Christmas:
1. A neutral, soft Christmas

Eschew vibrant colors in favor of the softness of neutrals: for your decorations, choose tones in beige and the warmth of earthy colors, perhaps embellished with some gold trimmings.

Add a touch of cuteness with soft felt and fabric decorations; how about a plush reindeer waiting for Santa on a bench? Simple, but incredibly cute.
Children will surely love a large Santa Claus sack left in the living room (colored in beige and brown, of course).
For a DIY Christmas, create charming paper decorations with cutouts or origami. Stars, snowflakes, Christmas trees, and baubles will look lovely hanging from your ceiling, forming a kind of umbrella above your head. Choose white, beige, and dark green for colors of the paper sheets you use.
2. Decorative nature
A widespread trend for this year in home decor and decoration is Mother Nature. Make a little forest in your home and decorate it with natural elements such as decorations made with cinnamon sticks and star anise.
Dried citrus fruits, berries, evergreen twigs, and dry leaves are also perfect for naturalistic-style decorations for your home.
For your front door wreath, nothing beats an intertwining of evergreen branches adorned with berries, pinecones, and dried fruit.
Even centerpieces and candle holders can be decorated naturally with evergreen twigs and pinecones. Add a touch of color with citrus fruits and the intoxicating aroma of spices.
3. A pink Christmas
Pink is a color trend this year that brings sweetness and liveliness to Christmas, setting aside the more classic colors. Felt decorations will look very romantic when made from pink-colored materials.
The nutcracker is an icon par excellence for Christmas. So, how about dressing it up in pink this year?
A regular wreath gains more "personality" when decorated with pink flowers and berries
Even sweets and cakes can be decorated in delicious shades of pink - creative and very cute.
4. Christmas for the nostalgic
Incurable nostalgics can indulge themselves during the holidays by recreating a vintage atmosphere for their Christmas at home. Check out thrift markets or search through your attics and cellars; you will surely find relics that will transport you back to your childhood. How about, for example, pillows with prints from the 70s and 80s?

A display of the most beautiful Christmas baubles used throughout your life will be a lovely way to bring back precious memories.
Ceramic Santa Claus heads, old tree toppers, and small synthetic pine trees can decorate your shelves, taking you on a journey back in time.
You'll feel like you're back in your grandparents' house with a small fir tree in a tin tub surrounded by classic vintage decorations.
Which of these trends will you adopt this Christmas?
