When it comes to décor, thinking outside of the box is great for fresh ideas. But sometimes you just can’t beat a classic, like red and white Christmas décor. White provides a fresh and neutral background to show off colorful decorations, while red adds a dash of drama to a holiday home. Plus, if you’re going after that classic Christmas feel, nothing gets you there quite like snowy white décor!

Another thing to love about this color scheme? Red and white Christmas décor is easy to find everywhere—from Christmas craft fairs to retail stores— during the holidays. This also means that you can find accessories to suit any style. Looking for some farmhouse charisma? A red plaid throw or wood sign will do the trick. Prefer something more whimsical? There are plenty of Christmas characters and figurines in this color scheme.

Narrowing down the perfect pieces for your home can be tricky. Luckily, we have you covered with this collection of 34 red and white Christmas décor ideas!

They all work together effortlessly thanks to the red and white woven through the elements.

One of the easiest ways to add red and white Christmas décor to a bedroom is by swapping out a few textiles. This may include bedding, pillows, blankets, chair covers, or curtains. (This method works great for living rooms too!) Here, the bed is layered with cozy red and white pillows and topped with a red and white plaid throw while a soft red throw is added for another pop of color at the foot of the bed.

Throwing in Some Pattern

Throw pillows not only make a room feel cozy and welcoming, but they add a great way to play with Christmas patterns. This living room uses solid and plaid pillows along with a sectional, but unconventional patterns such as stripes, polka dots, damask, and geometric patterns can also be used to create a playful or youthful aesthetic.

Going Green

Red and white Christmas décor is commonly paired with green accents, but that classic Christmas green hue isn’t for everyone. Luckily, nothing says you can’t explore other green shades. For example, this bright living room mixes in a muted green to create a color palette that is festive, yet calming. The green throw pillows break up the bold contrast between the red and white pillows while echoing the green shade of the prints hanging on the wall.

Pretty in Pink

Speaking of less traditional Christmas colors, pink also pairs fabulously well with red and white Christmas décor. It acts as a bridge color to soften the contrast between the two hues and can infuse your décor with playful energy. Here, a pink ribbon is draped around the Christmas tree. It is an easy addition, but the effect it has on this Christmas display is truly priceless.

Love for Santa

Appreciation for the big guy in red comes in all forms, but this home decided to show it with red and white Christmas décor. Under the snowy Christmas tree is an oversized Santa letter and throw pillow that adds a youthful touch to the décor. To finish off the look, subtle pops of red are added to other areas of the room, like the sofa throw pillows and the decorative balls in the coffee table centerpiece.

Farmhouse Christmas Wall Art

Why not top off your Christmas décor with some wall art? Christmas signs come in a variety of sizes and styles. Plus, signs with distressed finishes work perfectly in rustic farmhouse interiors. For example, the living room above uses a duo of distressed Christmas signs with a red and white color palette. They not only tie in effortlessly with the rustic décor, but they also subtly echo the colors of the blankets and pillows cushioning the sofa.

A Colorful Update

If you already have Christmas art that you want to give a quick refresh, a string of red pom pom garland breathes life into the wall art and makes it pop off the wall. To DIY this look, try stringing pom poms along some yarn with a large needle. Tie a knot on each side of the pom poms if you want them to be evenly spaced.
