Temperature goes down and days get shorter... Winter is here! and is followed by Christmas time (which is our favorite time of the whole year). Since these two seasons happen at the same time (at least here in Europe), it will be easier to do your Christmas decorations if you already have winter colors in your home.

The key is to work with touches of christmasy colors to create a cheerful environment that transitions well in and out of the Christmas season. To make sure your decor will live on even after December, avoid bright green or red and opt for more subtle tones. Combine a burgundy with a green sage color, or even a deep forest green with a soft salmon color.

Then add layers with neutral tones like white, gray and wood tones to soften even more the festive palette. To add small doses of these colors try a framed wall art, a bowl of fruit like pomegranates or red apples or even potted houseplants.
