The celebrations are just around the corner, and your kitchen can be part of the seasonal decorating trend. This space, which becomes the epicenter of all that is celebrated this holiday season, can become a magical place. 

With that in mind, we have compiled a list of the latest in kitchen decoration and how to adapt them in a simple way so that you can achieve a spectacular look without complicating your life. 

1. Trendy colors: beyond red and green 

Metallic tones such as gold, copper, and silver dominate this year, accompanied by neutral colors such as beige, white, and gray. However, one of the surprises of 2024 is the incorporation of terracotta and olive-green tones that add warmth and an organic feel. For those looking for a vibrant contrast, you can return to a timeless classic adding a touch of red to highlight and add energy to the space. 

Practical tip: Integrate these colors through details such as kitchen towels, and garlands with eucalyptus leaves, or even use appliances with special finishes or unique shades as part of the decoration. 

2. Holiday minimalism: “Less is more” 

Excessive decorations are no longer necessary. Choose items that highlight the beauty of what you already have in the kitchen. According to the magazine AD España, the key is to choose a few striking pieces, such as an arrangement of candles on the countertop, or a discreet wreath for the cabinet door. 

Practical tip: If you have luxury appliances with metallic finishes, use decorations that complement them. A refrigerator with a stainless-steel finish looks great with gold or silver decorations.  

3. Natural textures for a cozy look 

Natural elements are trendy, and this year the popular materials are wood, natural fibers, and ceramics. Incorporate elements such as wooden trays to display seasonal fruits, or use ceramic vases to hold pine branches. 

Practical tip: Collect dried pinecones and branches and spray them with white or gold spray paint to give them a festive touch. 

4. Warm lights and garlands with personality 

Lighting plays a crucial role. Warm vintage-style lights, such as Edison bulbs, are becoming very popular according to House Beautiful. In addition, LED light garlands in the shapes of stars or snowflakes add a magical, and modern touch. 

Practical tip: Install lights under upper cabinets or around a shelf for a cozy effect that does not take up the workspace.   

5. Appliances as part of the decoration 

As we mentioned before, if you have luxury appliances, use them as part of the design. Brands like Smeg with elegant designs fit perfectly with the colors in trend. For example, if you have Smeg’s red refrigerator, you can use it as a central element in a holiday theme. 

Practical tip: Make sure you choose ornaments that do not obstruct the functionality of the appliances. 

As you can see, decorating the kitchen for the holidays doesn’t have to be complicated. With these trends, you can transform this space into a place full of charm and warmth, just as the heart of the home deserves. Go for elements that reflect your style and experience the magic of every celebration as you prepare delicious dishes, and create unforgettable memories with La Cuisine.
