Top Holiday Décor Trends for 2021

The holidays will be here before you know it, which means it’s time to start thinking about holiday decor. While you could decorate with the same pieces and themes you’ve been using year after year, you and your family may appreciate a winter decor refresh. To help turn your home into an exciting winter wonderland, use the top trends of 2021 to guide you.

Monochrome Is In

Monochrome has been the prevailing home décor trend for years now. However, during the holiday season, most homeowners ignored what’s trending and did what they’ve always done — decorated with varied colored palettes. Not this year.

This year, home designers are decorating with holiday décor in muted colors, such as creams, silver, gold, and, of course, reds and greens. To keep your Longmont, CO, home stylish throughout the most wonderful time of year, consider decorating with one of the following color combinations:

Cream and gold
Red and green
Blue and silver
Purple and gold
While and black
Gold and black

If you’re feeling adventurous, try incorporating a third color in small doses.

Vintage Makes a Statement


As you will find with trends for fall decor in 2021, mixing vintage Christmas pieces in with your contemporary ones is a must. Browse the antique shops for retro bulbs, historical cutouts, vintage wreaths and other antique accents. Whether you decide to use vintage pieces as small details or the main event, they’re sure to take your winter display to the next level.


Sustainability Takes Precedence


Whereas once upon a time it was tradition to decorate with live trees, wreaths, and other pieces, designers are encouraging homeowners to take a more sustainable approach to their winter décor by buying faux alternatives. Before you lament losing the authenticity and wonderful pine smell, know that fake greenery looks more realistic than ever these days. You can also pick up a bottle of pine-scented spray (or several) from just about any home décor or hardware store. The bottom line is, there is no reason to not go faux this holiday season.


When shopping for holiday décor this year, think monochrome, vintage and sustainable. If you do this, you will create a winter scape worthy of a photoshoot.
