How to Style and Coordinate Pastel Decorations on Your Prelit Christmas Tree
For those who have a prelit Christmas tree, you are going to find that with white lines, this pastel theme is going to look amazing! Here are a few tips to help you integrate this onto your tree this year!
- You are going to want to devote yourself fully to the pastel theme. It is not going to look as good if you integrate this with your old ornaments. If you still want to hang your heirloom ornaments, consider putting up another tree in your home with an heirloom theme…for twice the holiday spirit!
- Make sure that you are spreading the colors on the tree so that some of the pastel can be seen at every angle.
- You will want to pair a pastel with a neutral color like gray, white, a dark gold or some other color to make it stand out.
- Consider using neutral colored garland to help these pastel colors to stand out even more.
