Want to shake up your Christmas decor this season? How about using non traditional Christmas colors? Red and green Christmas decor isn’t a rule, so don’t be afraid to mix things up a bit. Here’s a roundup of some non traditional Christmas decorations for you to consider using this year.

Colorful Christmas Colors

For a playful take on Christmas decor, try bright colors for a whimsical look. Bold colors are certainly non traditional, but they add so much fun!

Blues And Greens

For a [slightly] updated look on traditional Christmas colors, try blue and green. You can even throw in pops of red for a more traditional Christmas color palette.

My nature inspired Christmas tree doesn’t have any ornaments at all on it, but it still looks festive. Don’t be afraid to break some rules when you decorate for Christmas.

Lime Green and Red Christmas Decorations

For a bright twist on traditional Christmas decor, try lime green instead of emerald green this year. The pop of color adds a playful vibe to your Christmas decor.

Non Traditional Pink Christmas Tree

This year I decided to add a pop of pink to my Christmas tree for a slightly non traditional look. Though I wasn’t ready to go all-in on pink, mauve and cranberry pair beautifully for an updated and elegant Christmas look.

Personalize Your Christmas Decor

Non traditional Christmas colors can add beauty and personality to your decor, so don’t be afraid to use them! Take a look at your home’s color pallette and draw inspiration for what you are already using. Since blue is the dominant color in my home, I typically choose Christmas colors to complement it. The plate wall in my breakfast room looks lovely with the blue and green tree, creating cohesion from one room to another. A color wheel is an invaluable tool for choosing a Christmas color palette to complement your existing decor. Merry Christmas, and Happy Nesting!
