Christmas Decoration Ideas: The Top Trends for 2022

Holiday and Christmas trends are often recycled, but there are always a few themes and staples that stand out and catch a craze. This year, we expect that people will lean into nostalgia and creativity. We believe the movement of supporting local retailers and sustainable choices will continue, plus there will be an emphasis on handcrafted keepsakes and a stronger focus on personalized gifts.

These trends have appeared before, but the last few years have reminded us of how precious celebrations are with loved ones, so we expect them to be at the forefront of the holidays. 

Minimalistic Woodland Wonderland

Sustainable living entered the mainstream a few years back, and its popularity has been increasing ever since. We’ve seen a lot of alternatives since its rise, but a common party theme also emerged: minimalistic woodland. 

The theme blends organic materials, elements from nature, and a low-waste mindset. Birthdays, bridal showers, weddings, and even holiday events like Christmas, have all referenced this theme. Woodland is a sustainable theme and one that can easily support local makers, which makes it ideal for 2022. 

To achieve this theme, incorporate twine, cork, pine cones, hessian fabric, hemp, dried fruits and flowers or reference nature with ceramics, glass, or wood decor. These elements will leave you with beautiful earth tones, but to have a nodd at Christmas, add pops of berry red, forest green, and bold golden hues. 

How to decorate your Christmas mantel:

  • * Fresh or faux cypress or eucalyptus garlands from a local florist. 
  • * Clay Christmas tree sculptures or accordion Christmas trees.
  • * Handcrafted festival holiday houses.
  • * Glass or clay vases for dried flowers, red berries, or plants.
  • * Photos of family and friends.
  • * Fairy string lights.

A Merry & Bright Christmas 

A merry and bright theme for Christmas embodies youth and energy, it’s not for everyone, but if done correctly, it can be incredibly memorable and fun. This fantastical theme features a mixture of neon brights, candy stripes, rainbow hues, and coloured fairy lights. This upbeat trend was motivated by a desire for optimism and a better New Year ahead and connects with the picture-perfect craving generation. 

“There has been a 346% increase in searches for disco ball decor, an 86% increase in searches for vibrant wall art and a 24% increase in searches for colourful wreaths…” says trend expert Dayna Isom Johnson.

To achieve this holiday theme, focus on bright colours like hot pinks, lime greens, aqua, royal blue, and orange tones while mixing shimmering, shiny, and matte decorations. You can opt to colour-block if you’re courageous and already have a bold-coloured room. Alternatively, you can use whites and creams to balance the bright decorations. To ensure the theme is cohesive, choose a couple of focal colours, balance them with metallics or whites, and add diversity with shades and decoration sizes.

Vintage Christmas: Classic and Nostalgic

We’re seeing nostalgia everywhere: remakes of cult classics, Y2K fashion, vintage interior design, etc. People are heading back to the classics, and it’s no different for the holidays. On TikTok alone, there are over 30 million views of the hashtag #VintageChristmas. 

This Christmas theme will easily be a front-runner; it’s so versatile to personal style and encourages long-running traditions. But, we think most will aim for maximalism, expression of texture, and include corny Christmas elements. 

To achieve this holiday theme, stick with the classic colour palette of forest greens, rich reds, and warm golds. Find your seasonal pillows and throws in velvets, plaids, and checkered designs. Plus, any ceramic Santa pieces, brush bottle trees, reindeer sculptures, or heirlooms. Now, make the theme timeless by mixing jewel tones and gold accents. 

How to decorate your Christmas mantel: 

  • * Oversized cypress or eucalyptus garland wrapped with warm golden lights.
  • * Red velvet ribbon and bows. 
  • * Vintage candle holders, bottle brush Christmas trees, reindeer props,  nutcrackers, or wool stockings. 
  • * A large standing sign that says Joy, Merry Christmas, Believe, or any other holiday saying.
  • * Hang a full, traditional wreath over the mantel.

Boho Noel: Neutrals and Pops of Pink

Soft pinks and peaches are favoured in interior design and personal aesthetics; we expect many will mix this trend with the beloved bohemian style for the holidays.

Bohemian Christmas décor is simply stunning; it is sophisticated, muted, and chic all at once while maintaining the boho feel of a relaxed, hippie, and organic ambiance. It’s already heavily used in interior design, and many won’t have to make dramatic changes but will add festival elements. 

To achieve this holiday theme, use faux fur, rattan, and velvets to add winter warmth and incorporate rustic pampas grass, dried floral arrangements, wooden decor, and macrame accents in your decorations. Add dimension with black accents and warm metallic touches. With this style, less is more. 

How to decorate your Christmas mantel: 

  • * Simple pine garland with an emphasis on cream pom poms, beaded garlands, and rattan lights. 
  • * Small gold and pink bottle brush trees.
