Christmas tree decorating ideas by color and theme
The same tree can look classic, elegant, Nordic or playful depending on the ornaments, ribbon and lights. These trees show the most popular color themes.
Tree themes to try
Red and gold
The classic: red and gold ball ornaments, a plaid or velvet ribbon and warm white lights.
White, silver and gold
Champagne and silver ornaments, white lights and a gold star for an elegant, luxury look.
Scandinavian
Wood, straw and paper stars, white ornaments, very few colors and lots of greenery showing through.
Colorful and nostalgic
Multicolor bulbs, candy canes and mixed vintage ornaments. Great for kids.
Rustic
Pine cones, burlap, plaid and wooden ornaments, with a tree skirt or basket collar.
