A winter wonderland theme, replete with snowy elements and lustrous whites and metallic colors, can really bring the joy and wonder of Christmas, and the entire winter season, to vibrant life.
Bringing this aesthetic in your home is easier than you might think, too. Here are some ways to build your collection of Winter Wonderland accessories.
Lean on Whites and Silvers
The easiest way to create the suggestion of a winter wonderland theme is to decorate with predominantly whites and silvers. Both of these colors, in ornament, garlands, and other decorative elements, are reminiscent of snow.
You can also introduce other metallic colors, like blue, and to a lesser degree gold, provided the gold is not too saturated with yellow and is on the cooler end of the spectrum.
Get a Flocked Tree
Another great way to create a focal point around which you can further cultivate your winter wonderland theme is to start with a flocked Christmas tree.
There are artificial trees out there with frosted tips that are reminiscent of snow; these will cool the color palette and brighten the scene, and look great with other winter wonderland themed elements.
Actually, on that note, don’t stop at the tree. You can also decorate with other frosted Christmas greenery like swags, garlands, and wreaths. If you need to, you can even frost them yourself.
Decorate with Snowman Ornaments
If there’s one class of ornaments that really brings a winter wonderland theme to life, it has to be snowman ornaments and accents!
Snowman ornaments of different sizes and aesthetics, interspersed among the boughs of your frosted Christmas tree, will add jollity and wonder as well as send a clear thematic message. You can use them to decorate garlands and wreaths too.
A close second to these types of ornaments are frosted glass ornaments, mercury glass ornaments, and crystal-inspired ornaments, especially those with snowflake-inspired aesthetics.
Winter Wonderland-Inspired Throws and Pillows
Need a softer touch for your overall winter wonderland theme? Get cozy with winter-themed throws and pillows, especially those reflecting the snowman-aesthetic mentioned above, or those depicting a wintry scene, or snowflakes.
Wintry Wall Art
Don’t leave the walls bare at Christmas time, they represent a perfect blank slate for expanding your winter wonderland theme. All you need is a little imagination and some wood, fiberboard, or tin wall signs that reflect wintry themes and motifs, like snow, snowflakes, snowmen, and woodland and rustic imagery.
As for the Lights
With a winter wonderland theme, there is only one real color that makes a match, and that’s white.
With that said, you will have to make a decision about whether you prefer cool or warm white lights. Warm white lights are yellower, and feel warmer, so they’ll make the setting more cozy.
Cool white lights are a little more bluish, and feel colder, but they still have a place as they have an “icy” feel and can boost the immersiveness of the winter wonderland theme.
