Have you noticed the trend of ‘n*de Christmas‘ that has been popular for a few years now?
It is all about beige and beige – from decorations to Christmas trees – so it can all match the minimalistic and modern decor.
But when did Christmas become so cold and… bland? Year after year, Christmas trees are becoming everything but festive, and this trend could truly ruin the warm and welcoming feeling Christmas once represented.
If you are thinking about buying a new Christmas tree and you are deciding between a white or green one, here are the top 6 reasons why we should keep our Christmas trees colorful!
1. They Are Nostalgic
Remember those old-school trees with rainbow lights, glitter everywhere, and mismatched ornaments?
Colorful trees bring back those warm, fuzzy holiday memories that we all enjoyed as children and remember with great nostalgia.
They remind us of family traditions and simpler times when the holidays felt truly magical and fun.
Beige Christmas trees simply do not feel nostalgic or fun, especially for older generations.
2. They Feel Warm
Warm lights, golden ornaments, and the deep green pine shade simply create a cozy and inviting atmosphere in your home.
There is nothing like lighting some candles, making a hot cup of tea, and enjoying your warm Christmas tree lights.
3. They Are Fun for Everyone
Decorating a colorful tree feels like a party, especially for kids who love picking out ornaments in every color.
This is also a perfect chance to get creative and wake up kids’ imaginations.
Beige trees can feel like a “look but don’t touch” setup, and there is no fun if everything is a different shade of beige and gray.
4. They Tell Stories
With colorful trees, there’s room for all those sentimental ornaments you’ve collected over the years – dating back from your parents’ childhood.
Whether it’s that glittery old snowman from fourth grade or the quirky souvenir you picked up on vacation, it all fits perfectly in a colorful setup.
Beige themes can feel a little too curated and make the whole space feel a bit cold and unmemorable.
5. They Stand Out
Let’s face it, beige trees blend into the background which is perfect if you want everything to be ‘aesthetic and Instagrammable‘.
A vibrant tree, on the other hand, becomes the centerpiece of the room and looks much more dominant compared to beige or white backgrounds.
However, it screams, “It’s Christmas!” and makes your home feel alive and festive, which is exactly why we put up our Christmas trees, right?
6. They Are Unapologetically Festive
Beige trees might be stylish and elegant, but they can feel a little… muted and uninviting.
A colorful tree embraces the chaos of the holidays because it is loud, glittery, joyful, and unapologetically festive.
So, are you someone who has kept the tradition of the festive and old-school Christmas trees or do you enjoy the beige ones more?
