3 trendy Christmas decor styles to try this holiday season

As the Christmas season quickly approaches, it's time to start decorating the house for family and friends. Why not try something new? Leave the tinsel in the attic and experiment with these ideas to bring a modern, creative style to this year's Christmas decor.

A popular idea this year is to use vibrant colours for your decorations and lighting.

• Bright purple and magenta are great hues that will stand out against the typical reds and greens you find in holiday decorations.
• Bright blue also provides a stellar contrast, but if you don't want to deviate so far from tradition, then even varying hues of green and red that differ from the typical holiday colours can set your decorations apart from everyone else's.

Metallic decorations also bring a little diversity to the season.

• Silver, gold, red and even green metallic decorations will look great.
• The shine metallic omits will go well with small or large Christmas bulbs and bring a new ambiance and atmosphere to your Christmas party.

Changing up the style of your Christmas decor will breathe new life into your holiday season. Perhaps you could try a country aesthetic when decorating your tree, by using twine instead of tinsel.

• Some rural elements in your decorations could also give your more elegant Christmas decorations new life and appeal.
• Try incorporating country-style fabrics with some of last year's ornaments or garlands to give them a new appearance that won't bust your holiday budget.

This holiday season, you have an opportunity to try something new and wow your friends and family. With just a few simple ideas, you can transform your Christmas decor from more of the same into something that will bring the spirit of the holidays closer to your family and friends.
