1. Playing with Purple
“Very Peri,” the 2022 Pantone Color of the Year, is a great place to start if you’re looking for a “new” Christmas color. This dusky purple pairs well with today’s gray-toned decor. Purple ornaments look fantastic against a green tree, but really glow in trendy flocked Christmas trees. Blend with purple Christmas decorations in hues from lavender to plum, or add a touch of glamor with accents of silver or gold.

2. Crystal & Clear Glass
Clear glass and crystal ornaments gleam like ice to provide subtle shine on the tree. Try this look on its own, or blend it with silver or ice blue. Accent with white lights in a frosted tree for a magical winter wonderland motif. For added sparkle, hang individual crystals or a Christmas garland of crystal beads. Off the tree, crystal adds sophistication to your holiday decor in everything from glassware to accent pieces.

3. Luxury Metals
Luxury metallics are always in style! Platinum, bronze, gold and silver ornaments add a touch of elegance on their own or in combination with other Christmas decor trends. They’re as on-point with traditional red and green as they are when paired with crystal and glass. Mix silver or gold ornaments with glass ball ornaments in emerald green and trendy teal, or blend with lustrous mercury glass. Off the tree, luxury metals glimmer beautifully as wreath accents, mantel decorations and table top decor.

4. Ode to Emerald
There’s a new green in Christmastown! Emerald green ornaments stun beside silver and appear truly luxurious with lots of gold. Emerald also looks great with other greens from teal to peacock, and with blues from aqua to navy. For something really different, pair it with purple! Christmas red and winter white would not be out of place with emerald ornaments, either!
