Christmas Decorating: White Christmas

Create your own Winter Wonderland

As Australians who celebrate Christmas each year in the warmer months, we have become obsessed with turning our homes in to a winter wonderland. We have all seen the movies where kids wake up to a beautiful scene with presents under the tree and a blanket of white snow on the ground. You don’t have to travel across the other side of the world for a white Christmas. Simply check out how to deck the halls with these white Christmas design ideas.

White with a touch of colour

A white Christmas theme doesn’t necessarily mean just white. Accent your frosty colour palette with pearl, champagne, silver or gold. We especially love adding a touch of fresh green so it looks like the snow has just fallen on the farm fresh trees. Decorate with snowy garlands and wreaths on your doors and windows for a beautiful country Christmas look.

The Christmas Lunch Table

You can’t forget white Christmas décor to use on your tables! When it comes to table decorations you can use beads, candles or even a garland as a centerpiece. Just have fun with it and don’t forget your accent colours.

Decorate the whole house with some fresh snow

A White Christmas Tree

Sticking with a primarily white color scheme is a great idea for Christmas. White is the color of joy and purity and a flocked Christmas tree decorated in warm Christmas lights could be a fresh change from your traditional colour scheme. It’s also really hard to go wrong with this type of tree. We suggest decorating with white ornaments, sprays, garlands, beads and adding a touch of metallic.

If you have a traditional green tree sitting in a box, don’t feel the need to replace it. You can simply pick up a can of faux snow to give it a brandnew look.
