(NC)-Decorating your home is an activity that captures the holiday spirit and reflects personal style. Choosing two or three main colours and building your Christmas décor around them is a great way to get maximum impact. The decorating team at Canadian Tire suggests these Christmas colour combinations to help you create a beautiful, festive space:

. Timeless Elegance - Create a luxurious, elegant space using the warm combination of ivory and gold accents. Canadian Tire carries a wide range of tree skirts, table runners, ornaments and candles in gold and ivory. Candles enhance the warmth of a room and invites friends and family to make themselves at home.

. Dramatic - Combine black, red and silver to create a bold, contemporary look that is easy to achieve. Black candles with silver accents make a dramatic statement. Use a metal cardholder to elegantly and neatly display your holiday cards.

. Handcrafted Christmas - Classic holiday colours like red, green and gold mixed with vintage style characters and natural elements create a country theme. Start with a berry topiary for the table and feature snowmen and other holiday characters throughout the house. Oversized stockings add some merriment and fun to your holiday decor. A great decorating trend for families with children.

. Mrs. Wonderland - Turn your home into a winter wonderland using white and silver. Add pink accents, such as flowers and butterflies, and feathered decorations help create a sassy, whimsical look. The white feather glitter tree at Canadian Tire is a great way to bring this colour combination into your home.

. King's Jewels - Combine burgundy and gold to create a majestic space. Add rich textures by choosing a dark tree skirt and stockings. Oversized gold tree decorations and exotic shapes, like jeweled elephants and crowns, bring the eye to your grand Christmas tree.

. Ice Fantasy - Create a contemporary, unique look using a non-traditional accent colour. Use cool blue and silver to bring the magic of Christmas into your home, and add violet accents to complete the look. Create your own centre piece by placing a variety of silver and purple-hued holiday decorations in a clear bowl.

. Warm Evening - Make your home glow this holiday season with lights. From the outside to the inside, LED lights are the easy way to create a feeling of warmth. New Warm White LED lights bring the spirit of the season outside with a warm glow. In the front hallway, a pre-lit topiary tree or cashmere pine tree in a sturdy gold pot adds elegance to your home and makes your friends and family feel immediately welcome.

. Outdoor Fun - Create a fun and magical outdoor space using inflatables in the yard. Perfect for families with children. Visit a store like Canadian Tire to see the fun options available.
