Christmas Trends: Top Festive Trends For the Season
Wondering what this year’s Christmas trends are? You’re in luck, with our team at Terrys on hand to advise on all the festive décor trends set to dominate the season. From the revival of bows through the resurgence of nostalgic décor, Gareth Coxall, Creative Director at Terrys, has shared his expert insights on this season’s top trends and essential décor tips. Here are some simple tips to make your home shine in style this season:
“As the Christmas season approaches, updating your home's décor with the latest trends can infuse your space with holiday cheer. Think merry maximalist touches, warm yet bold festive palettes, and a dash of nostalgia—all the essentials to make your home feel truly special this Christmas.
A simple update, like adding layered window treatments, can bring that extra seasonal charm to your home. Pairing decorative blinds with sheer curtains in festive patterns adds depth to your living space and helps to create a warm, cosy atmosphere.
In the kitchen, opt for traditional, vintage-inspired dining accessories and rugs in retro patterns to bring a nostalgic holiday charm to your home. Don’t be afraid to add a touch of red in everyday spaces to capture the spirit of Christmas.
This year, the charming Christmas tablescape is returning, adding a warm and elegant touch to your dining space. To achieve this look, layer tablecloths in seasonal fabrics and incorporate a mix of materials in your place settings—ceramic, wood, and metal accents. Add a natural touch with eucalyptus sprigs or small pine branches paired with tapered candles in coordinating colours. These details will transform your table into a stunning focal point that will impress and make every meal merry.
Create a cosy retreat for the bedroom by dressing the windows with thermal curtains in deep forest green or burgundy to keep the warmth indoors. Add bedding and plush pillows in rich seasonal hues, along with throw blankets and cushions in coordinating shades to complete the look. These simple additions will bring joy and a sense of seasonal warmth, transforming your bedroom into a snug sanctuary that feels welcoming in every corner of your home.”
When it comes to seasonal decor, here are the trends we anticipate will be embraced in homes this season.
The Return of Bows: The Classic Trend Reimagined
Bows and ribbons are centre stage in our list of Christmas trends, bringing feminine and youthful charm to your festive décor. Whether you go for finishes such as velvet, or imbue ultimate luxury with sequins, these classic accents are making a stylish comeback as the perfect accompaniment to cushions, table runners and other homeware accents.
Homeowners can take advantage of this trend during the holidays by using bows as tree ornaments, or tying ribbons around items such as gifts or wreaths for a special touch of festive flair.
Warm, Festive Hues
Festive colours such as deep cranberry reds, rich burgundies, earthy terracotta tones, forest greens and a variety of warm metallics, like gold and bronze, are the perfect way to turn your home into an on-trend cosy retreat. This year’s top Christmas trends are about creating an inviting, stylish ambience, meaning you can incorporate these colours through accents such as throw blankets, velvet cushions and more. For the added touch, soft candlelight or low lighting can add an extra layer of festive charm.
Merry Maximalism
You can embrace the maximalism décor trend for Christmas by shunning the ‘less is more’ approach. Instead, remember that more is more, with a dopamine décor inspired palette the perfect way to imbue your home with vibrant colours and joyful energy to ensure a merry and bright atmosphere for the festive season.
From luxurious bedding through to sparkling decorative accessories, you can layer textures, mix patterns and incorporate metallic accents for a perfectly cohesive yet over-the-top holiday look that encapsulates this year.
Bold, Nostalgic Décor
The holiday season is about creating moments of joy and warmth everywhere possible, with the feeling of togetherness a priority. This is why nostalgic décor is a key motif for this year’sChristmas trends, materialising in shades of rustic reds and shimmering golds that help you to evoke all the brilliant magic of a traditional Christmas. Whether retro-inspired designs or vintage decorations like gingerbread houses, candy canes or accessories decorated in festive designs, these are all perfect for celebrating the season in style.
