Christmas is almost here again, and you know what that means: it’s time to start making festive decoration plans for your home.

While you might already have a design style you adopt every year, you should know that it’s 2024, and you might need to switch things up a little— especially considering that there are tons of new decor trends that you can choose from.

That’s why we’re here. We want to update you on the latest Christmas trends you can adopt this coming holiday season.

This guide brings you the hottest scoop on what you want as your home decor for the holiday. You can get them through Ikea, Hobby Lobby, Crate & Barrel, and other home and furniture stores.

Colorful Christmas Trees

Nothing can take green, red, and white away from the Christmas spirit, but this year, the spirits of Christmas want the holiday season painted in as many colors as the rainbow. 

Walk into many stores, and you’ll be greeted by Christmas trees adorned with a host of vibrant and playful hues. Having one of these colorful trees at home can make your place feel like a carnival. 

Pinkmas

Another trend hitting Ig, X, Facebook, and retail stores this winter is the Pink Christmas trend. 

You can have your place in all the shades of pink to have a pink Christmas. Starting from your blinds to your Christmas trees, you can make everything purple, raspberry, fuschia, burgundy, or any other pink you might want.

Various stores are open to this trend, as it already began earlier this year, but even with that, it does seem to be making another go for the season.

A Berry-full Christmas

I can’t say if you’ve noticed this, but since it started, the idea of having berries in Christmas decor just seems to be getting more popular.

A few years ago, someone posted a picture with a long grassy branch of berries over his fireplace, and ever since, it's been a hit to make something similar. 

Now, we’ve got all kinds of berry branches in stores like Etsy that can go in different spots in your living space. To add, retailers have made a point to have aisles with branches, wreaths, and garlands filled with berries in different shapes and sizes.

The beautiful thing about this design or trend is that it gives your home a somewhat outdoorsy feel, especially when placed in the right spot. 

Paper Crafts 

Sustainability is all the rage these days. Nothing screams sustainability better than having your bulbs and other interior decor made of paper.

The idea of using paper in various shapes and sizes has made its way from Pinterest to the stores and will make a grand appearance this winter.

Having your lamp shades, bulbs, and other hanging decorations made of colored paper is one way to prepare your home for the season. This also helps you save on the cost of your decorations.

Christmas Throw Pillows

Another thing that has made its way to stay is Christmas-themed throw pillows. If you are looking to get extra comfy, having extra pillows around is never a bad idea. And if they look like little gnomes and elves? Even better!

Throw pillows created for the winter festival season have been gaining popularity on X, Pinterest, and, of course, retail stores.

Sweettooth Christmas

The trend of having treats on your Christmas tree is an age-old tradition that only seems to evolve with time. The idea behind this is that you can’t have Christmas without sweets for friends and family. 

I mean, other than the classic red-white candy cane, which other Christmas treat hasn’t changed with the times in one way or another? On Pinterest, you’ll see many ideas for various types of treats and candies you can make this winter.

Fun Lighting

Among all the ways to make your home say you are ready for the season, nothing does the job better than having the right lighting.

Back in the day, the red, green, blue, and yellow lights were enough for the Christmas glow-up. But these days, local stores like Walmart now have beautiful and novel lighting that will more than do the job.

The Down-to-Earth Theme

Besides Pinkmas, another color theme has also started making waves. This theme turns your home into a piece of woodland.

You can deck out your place in all the earth's colors, from earthen brown to shades of dark green, on your trees, cushions, pillows, wrapping papers, gift boxes, wreaths, garlands, and other items.

Retailers are already stocking up on various brown and greenery to suit the taste of people who might want to go this way. You can also find ideas to mimic this naturescape on Pinterest.

Customized Sweaters

Since the holiday is all about family and spending time with loved ones, customized sweaters are rolling out once more this winter. 

Families, couples, or friends can get matching sweaters to show their holiday spirit and unity of love for one another.

Just make sure your style fits the current social standards. You can find various styles to adopt on Pinterest.

Conclusion

That’s it for the latest and recurring Christmas trends this winter. When shopping for your Christmas decorations, make sure you budget for a few of these.

But remember that while they are the latest and look beautiful, you can’t use all of them in your home. The point of decoration is to make your place feel beautiful and in season. So don’t overdo it by choosing themes that contradict each other.

Pick a Christmas theme that best suits your home. If your walls already have a shade of pink, Pinkmas might be the best bet.

If you won't have enough time to take down your decorations after the season, then the down-to-earth theme can help you drag your cleanup for as long as you need. Brown is a hard color to spoil, you know?

Also, if you think you’ve got an idea for a decoration or want to try something out for yourself, go ahead and do it. Who knows, we might all agree it is the new trend for 2025.

Happy shopping!
