5. Coastal Blue and Silver Christmas
Who says Christmas has to be all about snowy pine forests? If you live near the coast, or simply love the serene colors of the ocean, a coastal-themed porch offers a refreshing and elegant alternative. Swap out traditional reds for a sophisticated palette of seafoam green, soft aqua, deep navy, and shimmering silver. Begin with a frosted or flocked pine garland to mimic the look of sea foam and salty air, weaving in shimmering silver mesh ribbon.
Incorporate elements of the sea into your wreath by hot-gluing sand dollars, starfish, and delicate seashells nestled among frosted pine cones and silver ornaments. For your planters, use weathered white-washed wooden planters or concrete urns filled with ornamental grasses, white poinsettias, and blue spruce branches. Hang glass fishing floats in shades of turquoise and blue from the porch ceiling at varying heights to catch the winter sunlight and create a dreamy, coastal ambiance.
