The start of the holiday season is usually marked when homes and shops begin to light up with decorations and festive songs hit the radio. The colours of the world around us start to transition from autumnal browns and oranges to festive greens and reds. Embrace the holidays this year as we go through our 5 colours of Christmas.
Christmas Green
Although the winter season is not known for its abundant plant life, green remains an iconic Christmas colour. Today, Christmas trees are one of the most well-known symbols of the holiday season, along with holly, ivy, pear trees and mistletoe. All of these plants come in various shades and tones of green that add a warm glow during the dark winter months.

It’s the color of Santa’s suit, festive holly berries and other traditional seasonal decorations. This bold color is perfect for creating a holiday atmosphere as an accent on walls or throughout a room.

Golden Yellow
Gold is a perfect accent color for holiday decorations, adding warmth during the cold winter. It’s a prominent feature throughout the season, from the gold star on top of your Christmas tree to its symbolic presence as one of the gifts the Wise Men brought to Jesus. You’ll also hear gold in the classic Christmas carol “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” where the line “five golden rings” celebrates its beauty and value. Use gold in your Christmas painting to bring an elegant touch to your decor.
RAL 1004 Golden Yellow
Of course our top pick had to be a golden yellow paint. Our durable Universal Enamel Paint provides a smooth finish on a wide range of surfaces.
