Elegant Decoration Ideas for the Holidays

Many of the gorgeous homes in Palos Verdes and the South Bay area are luxurious and provide the perfect canvas for holiday decorating. The homes themselves are works of art, so it is important to carefully choose elegant holiday decorations that enhance the magnificence of the structure. Even when selling a home, dressing it up with holiday décor is perfectly acceptable so long as it suits the style of the house and has a luxurious flair. Consider these easy and elegant ideas to make your home more festive this season.

Dress Up the Mantel

Mantels offer an easy and beautiful way to make a room feel jollier. Hang a simple wreath or holiday wall piece above and place candlesticks and a garland across the top. Gold and silver are two colors that are perfectly suited for most luxury homes, but don’t be afraid to add a splash of color. In fact, a brightly colored garland made out of ornaments or baubles can easily become an eye-catching centerpiece of your main space.

Garlands Galore

For those who have a large staircase or ample railing space, liven up the décor with gorgeous garlands spiraling along the handrail. Add bright bows and twinkling lights for an even more festive appeal.

Simple Centerpieces

Choose a large, clear glass or crystal bowl and fill it with ornaments, then place the bowl in the middle of a coffee or console table. For even more elegance, line the bowl with fluffy pine boughs so that some green peeks through. Gold and silver ornaments are simple and elegant, but colorful options also look beautiful here.

Be Judicious With Your Décor

Candlesticks, wreaths, garlands, and ornaments are just the beginning. Beautiful and luxurious Palos Verdes and South Bay homes deserve elegant holiday décor, so it is important to be judicious about what goes on display.
