What’s Trending in Christmas Décor This Year?
Let’s all admit it, we love to visit Pinterest to look into new trends in home decor. Especially in this festive season, you can take some help in following the trending Christmas decors.
Each holiday season brings new design trends, and this year is no exception. Minimalist Scandinavian styles with natural tones, rustic farmhouse accents, and metallic highlights like gold and copper are especially popular. Many people are also embracing eco-friendly décor, choosing reusable and sustainable materials instead of single-use items.
Custom Christmas tote bags fit right into these trends. A plain burlap tote pairs beautifully with the rustic look, while canvas bags decorated with metallic paint or sequins bring in a modern sparkle. Mini totes filled with greenery or candles echo the Scandinavian style of simple, nature-inspired decorating. By using TotebagFactory’s versatile collection, you can easily stay on trend while also making your décor unique and personal.
Add a Personal Touch with Embroidery, Ribbons, and Ornaments
Even the simplest tote can become festive with a little embellishment. Hand-stitch snowflakes or initials with embroidery thread, glue on ornaments, or attach ribbons to the handles. These quick upgrades turn ordinary tote bags into personalized holiday keepsakes you can use year after year.
Turn Canvas Tote Bags into Cozy Christmas Cushion Covers
Who just doesn’t loves cozy atmosphere during Christmas? Once the cold seasons comes along, it is time to put out the blankets and cushions and add them to your furniture decor.
Large plain canvas totes can easily be transformed into decorative cushion covers. Simply cut the tote into a square shape, sew the edges together, and add a zipper or button closure. With festive stencils or fabric paint, you can create your own holiday-themed designs. Place these cushions on your couch or near the fireplace to bring instant Christmas charm to your living space. And by buying your Christmas tote bags wholesale, you can also give a great present to your wallet as well.
Create Festive Wall Hangings with Burlap or Printed Tote Bags
Burlap totes, in particular, have a rustic, farmhouse-style appeal that works beautifully for wall décor. You can hang them directly on hooks, fill them with pine branches, ornaments, or even twinkle lights, and display them as a festive wall accent. Printed Santa Claus tote bags featuring seasonal patterns can also serve as ready-made holiday art pieces.
