In the Christmas spirit of the home and the whole city itself, an atmosphere of joy and celebration can be perceived. This makes people escape from reality and enjoy this fantastic world, even if it is for a few seconds. Today we will leave you some ideas about the trends for 2021 and 2022 in Christmas arrangements.
Whether you’re planning a traditional holiday season filled with red, green, and gold, or prefer something a little more contemporary, you’re sure to find something in this gallery of inspiration that you can bring into your own home.
Christmas arrangements in dining rooms and lounges
In the dining room, or in the dining rooms shared with the living room, it is generally where the vast majority of the decorations for this holiday are found. Many people choose to decorate the table only on December 24 and 25, while many others enjoy the day before and prefer to start from the first days of the month.
The classic colors of Christmas are red, green and gold, but decorations should not necessarily be made with them. There are people who prefer to keep the home line, using the same color palette and it’s not bad. We can also be inspired by the colors that will be a trend this Christmas, which, as we mentioned in a previous article, are Scandinavian pastel tones, colors inspired by arctic landscapes, fun or metallic colors.
White and red
Red with white only, offer a very modern look, although for many more cold. That will also depend on how much white and red are used, since the first is cold, but the second is warm.
In addition to the colors, the innovation that we propose in the setting is also important. For example, place a ribbon with red berries hanging from the chairs, or that the napkins have Christmas prints, not to mention the centerpieces or the Christmas spheres and stars that could be hung from the chandelier on the table.
Here you can see a fairly modern design. A napkin wrapped and decorated with a star and a branch, complemented with some element in bright colors to highlight.
Red and green
You can go for the classic decoration that never disappoints, apart from being very attractive and elegant. A red and green decoration, complemented by the neutral background of the walls, is classic but very pretty.

It is always good in all types of decoration, to choose a predominant base color in the decorations, for example red.
The idea that we see below can perhaps be applied for many years. Have a trunk in which you keep decorations from different Christmases or small souvenirs from past winters vacations. With these objects, you can build a Christmas tree of beautiful memories.
Scandinavian colors
Decorations in white, grey, brown and silver are also gaining ground. We see this beautiful combination of colors, for example, when dry branches are used, without leaves, where the brown color makes a fantastic contrast with white walls and silver Christmas balls.
You can also opt for white and silver, if the walls of the house are gray.
Each person has a different interpretation of Christmas, and their way of expressing it as well. In this case, a very abstract model is appreciated, in which small black Christmas trees have been used on the table.
Here the color black has also been used in the candlesticks, plates and napkins, achieving a very elegant design.
In the following image, you can see a floral decoration, based on the textures and colors to fill the tree with different artificial flowers such as roses, hydrangeas and magnolias.
Fun colors
Of course, other colors can be used, such as blue, turquoise, purple, apple green or fuchsia.
If you want a Christmas table that expresses joy, you must give it color. All that color that perhaps you have never dared to put in your home, you can apply it through Christmas decoration, even during the holiday season.

Ribbon embellishments and other details add elegance. Generally one of the most used fabrics and that looks better is silk. As you can see, it is complemented with some matching decorations, as well as fake flowers.

What more beautiful idea than decorating the Christmas tree with the decoration of the sky? Stars, crescents and suns in a single color (gold or silver), accompanied by small lights.
This case presents a possibility that requires much more effort and ability for crafts. These are decorations for the tree made by oneself. Undoubtedly it takes a good hand and imagination, but for Christmas lovers, nothing is impossible.
If you lean towards a rustic style, you should base yourself on materials that you can find in your garden or in the park.
