It’s never too early to start thinking about Christmas decorating. In fact, for the last number of years, festive decor has been available in stores as early as September. Still, if you’re a holiday lover like us, you won’t mind this too much because it will give you plenty of time to start thinking about your Christmas theme for 2023. The tree is, of course, the centrepiece of any Xmas decor, and each year new trends, colours, and styles are revealed. This year is no different, but what can we expect to see in the world of Christmas trees for the 2023 season? Here are 5 predictions from the talented merchandising, style, and interior team at EZ Living Furniture.
1. Whimsical Woodland
The whimsical woodland theme is set to be huge this year. It uses muted forest colours such as browns, oranges, light pinks, and of course, forest greens. While calmer colours are the primary focus here, you can also expect to see sprinklings of red and gold throughout. Wooden accents are strongly encouraged and should be included where possible. Forest-themed Christmas decorations and woodland creatures are an absolute must and if you’re struggling to come up with ideas, try to embrace your inner Alice in Wonderland. Toadstools, hanging lanterns, deer, and butterflies perfectly encapsulate this woodland theme. A brown faux fur tree skirt would also perfectly complete this charming look.
2. Farmhouse Festive
We couldn’t create this list without including a classic theme. Farmhouse Festive draws on traditional elements and features bold and fresh colours to make a statement. Vibrant reds and rich greens are at the centre of this look and are combined with gold and tartan patterns for added interest and texture. If you are looking for a theme that never really goes out of style, this is the one for you. To be completely honest, this is also one of the most cost-effective themes because you can be sure that it will feature and remain on-trend year after year, so it is definitely worth investing in Christmas baubles and decorations in those traditional red, green, and gold colours. Don’t forget to also finish the look with a tartan throw and some antler-shaped candle holders. Using pinecones, reindeer decorations, and berry sprays is also encouraged because it is very much a part of this traditional trend.
3. Silver Sparkle
You simply can’t celebrate Christmas without a little bit of sparkle and no theme is more sparkly than our Silver Sparkle look. This elegant theme is one of the more contemporary Christmas styles but that doesn’t mean that it can’t become a regular feature year after year. Frosted silver is combined with a winter white tone to create an all-around magical look and feel. LED fairy lights and hints of gold will add a polished glow and help to warm up the overall look. Remember to add in a few Christmas ornaments such as a polar bear or snowman figurine for a bit of childish fun.
4. Pink Palace
Rose gold and pink work extremely well together, especially when paired with lashings of gold. Now, we know, they’re not colours that you would expect to see around Christmas, but it’s hard not to completely fall in love with this soft-glitter look above. These shades can be included in various ways and fortunately, they still won’t overwhelm the space, unlike a bold-coloured alternative. You can bring in this colour by using rose gold baubles on your tree, pink taper candles on your sideboard, and some smaller home accessories like vases or a large bowl for a dining table centrepiece.
5. Green Land
Gold and green are still very much on trend this year. They are dazzling and radiant in a way that no other theme is. The Green Land Christmas theme is probably one of the most cost-effective choices too because there is only one colour you really need to focus on and that’s the gold. Most Christmas trees, garlands, and wreaths are green which means that all you need is some gold decorations to create the entire look.
