The Shimmer Christmas decorating theme is ideal for modern families looking to tie their Christmas decor into existing household colors and style. The elegant glass, shimmering jewels, cool whites and grays accented with blues perfectly complement year round cool color tones. Decor focuses on general winter themes, such as snowflakes, snowmen, icicles, and evergreen trees, all in glass, acrylic, and silver. A Shimmer Christmas is the perfect backdrop for an upscale (adult) holiday cocktail party! Plus, the winter-themed look can be enjoyed all cool season long.
A Shimmer Christmas isn’t complete without a tree to match, and match it will. A flocked artificial Christmas tree sets the tone perfectly for an upscale look this holiday. Adorn your flocked tree with elegant silver Christmas tree decorations including silver snowflakes or globes. Incorporate a few crystal or glass drop ornaments to let the white lights of the tree shine. And don’t forget to include tree ribbon this year, with many exquisite gray and white options designed with silver glitter or hints of blue to truly set your tree apart. Finish the look with a bejeweled tree skirt or collar and get ready for the “oohs” and “aahs” you’ll hear as family and friends behold your masterpiece.
Keep your tree in good company by incorporating the Shimmer vibe throughout your home. White Christmas decorations, along with silver, clear, and the occasional blue, will complement your tree and your home beautifully. Pair your mantle to the tree with a flocked garland sprinkled with frosted pine cones and berries. Layer it with blue, white, and silver acrylic Christmas trees, a few metallic reindeer, and some white candles in varying heights. Add a matching frosted wreath above it all for a stunning display. In the dining room, center an elegant jeweled studded table runner on the table under a holiday centerpiece featuring a tiered cake plate displaying silver, white, and blue ornaments. Replace your year round tabletop decor with glass snowflakes, shimmery silver reindeer, or lighted ceramic Christmas trees. Even get your seating involved with gray and white holiday themed accent pillows.
The Shimmer Christmas aesthetic can be modified to suit your particular style. However, there’s other themes that may even better suit your desired look. If you’d like to include more natural items among the glitz, check out our Northwoods vibe. Or perhaps you’re craving a few classic pieces- look no further than our Traditional trees, ornaments and decor collection.
