Decorating a Christmas Tree with Blue Ornaments
Blue is one of those colours that instantly transforms a Christmas tree into something special.
Whether you go for icy pale tones or deep, dramatic navy. Blue Christmas ornaments bring a calm elegance and a touch of sophistication to your holiday decor.
This colour is especially striking if you want something different from the traditional red and green theme but still festive and inviting.
Why Blue Christmas Ornaments Work
Pale blues capture the sparkle of snow and ice, giving your home a frosty winter wonderland look which is perfect for a Christmas tree. Darker blues feel rich, cozy and luxurious, another great idea for a Christmas tree.
Blue as a colour also has a serene, calming quality which is perfect for creating a peaceful Christmas atmosphere.
You can mix blue tones for a gorgeous blue Christmas tree. Use various shades of blue, from light icy blues to deep navy to create depth to the tree.
What Colours to Pair Blue Christmas Ornaments With?
Metallics are very on-trend at the moment and both gold and silver work well with blue to create different styles of tree. See how to combine them below.
Create a frosty, icy Winter Wonderland themed tree by combining blue with white and silver ornaments. Also make sure to add natural elements like pine cones or greenery and a few clear glass ornaments to really bring this effect together.
Mix with gold ornaments for a regal, timeless twist (this works best with darker shades of blue). To make this glamorous luxe look you should also make sure that you use velvet ornaments for a feeling of opulence and some gold sprays to add depth.
If you want to create a more relaxed theme with your blue ornaments then lets look at a coastal theme, use different shades of blue, aqua and white ornaments along with shells, driftwood ornaments and starfish.
Styling Tips for Your Blue Christmas Ornaments
Layer different finishes for depth – matte baubles, glossy ornaments, shimmering ribbon and glass icicles all add texture and sparkle. Wrap your tree in cool white lights to enhance the icy feel or use warm fairly lights if you prefer a softer glow.
Shop Blue ornaments as they are a versatile, chic smart choice if you want your tree to stand out this Christmas. Add a few statement pieces in glass or crystal to make your holiday decor truly shine.
