Hello Mad About Pink readers. I
am Eva Stephen. I am so happy to be here. The following post would give you the
blend of traditional as well as modern decoration ideas for Christmas. I hope
it helps and gives you inspiration for Christmas decoration this year.
Christmas
is just around the corner, so let’s get down to creating a plan how to make
your home as lovely as possible for this special day. How about doing something
a little different this year? I am going to suggest
several different decoration ideas and you’ll see which one best matches your
home and your sense of style.
Introducing
Purple as the Colour of the Year
Christmas colours are usually green, white and red. How about adding a new colour to your decorations? Purple is very rich and festive, and could be a beautiful addition to your décor. Add purple Christmas balls to your tree, purple balloons bouncing around the room and some other purple decorations that we’ll talk about. The colour of your dress or shirt on Christmas Eve could also be purple.
Hello, Crafts and Designs
If you have children, or even if you don’t, it could be a lot of fun to organize a day well ahead of Christmas to make some interesting decorations. Don’t rely on stuff that you can buy, but try to create something new and original. Some fresh ideas you can consider are:
1) A life-size Santa made out of cardboard and placed next to the Christmas tree, in a position as if he’s putting presents under the tree.
2) Sparkly stars sewn to the curtains, falling from the ceiling (hanging from a think piece of thread) or stuck to walls, doors, etc. You should have some purple stars, too.

Balloons everywhere! Check out Christmas balloons from Party Box.
4) Fake presents – though you’ll have real presents underneath the tree, you can have boxes in shiny paper and of different sizes appearing from unexpected places – when you open a cupboard to get something, from underneath the bed or sofa, peering from underneath the pillow, etc. You can also play a game titled: “Guess which fake present is not really fake?” which you could play towards the end of the evening and have a race who’ll find the real gift among the “false” ones.
5) Place anything shiny around the house on the floor so that it will sparkle in an unusual way (pieces of fake jewellery, glass, stones, etc.)
You can also try to find new ideas online or in magazines and introduce a new look to your home for Christmas.

Don’t
Overdo It
It is very important not to get caught up with decorating and lose track of what’s within the limits of good taste. Naturally, Christmas is all about having a glowing house full of ornaments and lights, which would look funny any other ordinary day of the year. But there’s still something called “too much Christmas decoration”. So, if you’re decorating your front porch, make it subtle and pleasant to the eye, rather than chaotic.
Decorate Every Room
You want your whole house to enjoy the holiday. Don’t let the bedroom furniture feel left out. Check out latest stock from this website. Bring in decorations to your study room, kitchen and bathroom as well. Use covers, blankets and pillows that look a little more festive than the ones you regularly use, if you have any. Have fresh flowers in vases in every room. Music is also very important contributor to the Christmas mood; it would be nice if you could hear it from almost any part of the house, even if just slightly.
