Top Christmas decorating trends for 2018 The highly anticipated 2018 Christmas collection at Black-cyed Susan. Bucks County's home for interior design, brings high style and casy solu tions to Christmas decorating. Principal designer and CEO, Susan Taylor, shares the year's top trends when the Christmas setup at the 10,000-square-foot home store is unvciled. No appointment is required to browse the store's styled room settings where every table, window, mantel and cciling surface is bedecked with decorating ideas. The charm of a farmlhouse Christmas was made for Bucks County and now it's on trend," Taylor said. "We often do an organic Christmas tree, but this year we added glamour." To replicate the look, Taylor said to cut branches from the woods outside your house, add paint and sparkle, position them in your tree, and then hang them with ornaments just as you would the evergreen boughs. Another top-selling Christmas tred is the mixed metals combination you can see in the front showroom of the home store. A snowflocked centerpicce tree is decked with ornaments in champagne, gold, silver, soft grays, whitoe and glitter, with hundreds of lights. Mixed metals are somcthing we sce a lot of in interior design. We're al ways telling our clicnts it's fine to mix silver and gold. This shows you how well they work togcther, even for Christmas decorating." Taylor said. "I can't keep the omaments on the tree! They all end up in shopping baskets. More color combinations feature gold and navy or soft pinks, with an endless supply of shimmer, glitter, and tinsel. Visit us at 5222 York Road in Holicong or online, besusan.com.
