PROUDLY PART OF THE PROP HOUSE COLLECTIVE
Christmas Trends for 2023
Australiana
Visions of wattle and sequin galahs will fill your tree this year among garlands of eucalyptus creating an Aussie Christmas dream. Capture the quintessential landscape of our nation with tones of deep-sea bluebottle and golden cockatoo yellow. Have fun with the Australiana trend this year with Bubble O’Bill decorations or keep it natural with native foliage of gumnuts and proteas threaded through a wreath. We urge you to draw inspiration from the colours around you this season and design your Christmas look with sympathetic tones that match your surroundings. Who needs snowmen when you can embrace our vast and beautiful Down Under with dusty pink baubles representing our salt lakes and pioneer red décor for our Great Sandy Desert.
Festive Frosting
Polar ice white and champagne towers inspire Festive Frosting. With textures of paper snowflakes, glittering pompoms, and iridescent baubles, the décor for this trend is soothing our Christmas loving souls. This trend is all about engaging with the senses, as glitter covers ornaments and catches the light of warm bulbs threaded through the Christmas tree. Bring warmth into the home with nature inspired elements, leaving room for the organic shapes of twirling branches and fluttering fern leaves. We encourage you to blend this trend with found items. Source some twisted willow from the local markets and hang over your table, covered in shimmering baubles, copper lights and snow flocked ornaments.

Sugar & Spice
Candy canes and pops of pink, gingerbread letters, and gnomes with a wink. Our Sugar and Spice trend incorporates all the sugary and delightful characters of Christmas. Swirling in red and pink, candy canes and lollipops will enchant little ones into a wonderland worthy of Wonka. Glitter frosted cupcakes will hang next to baubles saturated in colours of apple green, bubble-gum pink and thistle silver. Create the ultimate Candyland with giant nutcrackers and reindeer to welcome visitors and embellish entryways with twirling finials and velvet soft ice-creams. Imagination will go wild for this trend of sugar, spice and everything nice.
Touch of Twinkle
The cherry on top and icing on the cake, our Touch of Twinkle trend is that decadent trimming that sparkles like fresh snowfall. With velvet poinsettias and feathers shimmering with delicate diamantes, these decorations will enrich and enchant. Focus your colour palette onto pink lemonade and mint green, with of course dustings of all of the gilded gold, champagne and sparkles of silver.
Find these tones by adding sequined magnolias and fabric flowers, glittering butterflies and hummingbirds into your décor. The Touch of Twinkle wouldn’t be the magical trend it is without a pearlescent unicorn draped from the branches of your frosted tree. Keep your eyes peeled for this special edition to the collection.
Traditional
Cherry red and burnt burgundy, shamrock green and shimmering silver are just some of the colours trimming the tree this year. The traditional trend will always be relevant for the Christmas season. This year we love embracing the tones of forest green with chili red against a gingham or houndstooth pattern. For a country influence incorporate beige and white gingham stockings or tablecloth ready for the lunchtime spread. Take traditional to the city lifestyle with some tall black candle sticks or some lush velvet ribbon adorning gifts under the tree. Make sure to create a glowing interior with warm lights for a traditional festive experience. We love a pre-lit tree to save you time yet illuminate your home. Bring the family together to take part and enjoy the decorating tradition. Community and togetherness are the most important parts of Christmas after all.
