Modern ideas for contemporary Christmas decoration
Are you looking for inspiration for modern Christmas tree decorations? We have put together the best options for you to choose from. In the past, no Christmas tree was complete without decorative tinsel. But is tinsel still modern? In Germany, production of these shimmering garlands stopped in 2015. The Federal Environmental Agency advises against the use of tinsel as these decorations contain lead. Tinsel is often put in the bin after use or is disposed of along with the tree. This has significant impacts on the environment. This means that tinsel is no longer a contemporary choice for the Christmas tree. But what modern alternatives are there to decorate your Christmas tree?
Traditional straw or wooden ornaments are timeless classics. Apples and little chocolates are also traditional decorations for the Christmas tree. For a more modern look, choose pastel colours for your Christmas tree baubles and light materials such as feathers and ribbons. In place of traditional tinsel, you could decorate your Christmas tree with glittering chains or garlands.
Typical Christmas tree baubles never go out of fashion. With the added advantage: cherished decorations handed down through generations can be combined with modern baubles for an atmospheric look on your Christmas tree. The range of colours for Christmas baubles has changed significantly and now includes pastel tones and all shades of pink. Silver, gold and red baubles are as popular as ever and look beautiful on the Christmas tree.
