I am sure that many of you, dear fellow readers, consider the red color as the color of passion and romance. However, when the snowy winter comes, red is surely the color of Christmas.
The red Christmas decoration is cheery and vibrant and makes a great contrast with the snow outside.
It is traditionally used in candy-striped patterns, either fresh or faux red berries, or on the shimmering tree ornaments. But that’s not it! You can add some reddish twists to your festive decor so everyone will envy you.
