Boho Chic Christmas Decorating
Natural Elements That Shine
Natural elements like painted pine cones, branches and even bare branches adorned with ornaments are the perfect backdrop. Boho chic loves the sparkle and shine of mirror and glass. Use deep vibrant colors like turquoise blue, lime green, plum, purple, bright pink, bright orange and yellow to add a new dimension, and brighten, your holiday decor. Interesting shapes such as stars and exotic prints from far away lands have a nomadic feel that is paramount in Bohemian style.
