Start with white.
Whether it’s your artificial tree, a tablescape, mantel, or entryway… white is the perfect foundation for layering color, sparkle, or patterns. And, white on white on white is fresh, modern, and beautiful.
Opt for modern ornaments.
Think clean lines, angles, abstract shapes, and mirrored finishes. And when you add touches of modern, don’t dismiss those heirloom or vintage ornaments, because nothing says “chic” more than a mixture of modern and vintage.
Go natural.
The holiday season is the perfect time to bring in the outdoors. Sure, our friends up north can bring in pine cones, tree branches, and evergreen swags, but we can incorporate seashells, twigs, palm fronds and more to our holiday décor.
Stage a Holiday “Shelfie”.
Shelves beg to be a holiday vignette, so turn your attention toward organizing them with seasonal cheer.
Add sparkle in unexpected places.
Deviate from the norm when it comes to hanging outdoor lights. Try draping them around palm trees, a trellis, birdbaths, and other landscaping features to illuminate your yard and porch — not just your house. And, here in South Florida, this makes a wonderful sparkly environment to entertain and dine al fresco.
Silver AND Gold.
When it comes to holiday metallics, there are no rules. Mix up your silver and gold with natural, colored, and textured elements. A large hurricane lamp filled with gold and silver holiday ornaments or balls is a chic and easy way to add holiday flair to any space.
Decorate with Flowers and Fruit.
Why should evergreen and poinsettia plants get all the glory? Add a touch of “pretty” to your holiday décor with a Christmas cactus, lilies, amaryllis, or Ornithogalum, known as “the star of Bethlehem.” And, Pears, apples, and cranberries paired with greenery and florals is a very sophisticated look.
