Quick takeaways

- Gold chrome is the glue that makes red and green feel luxe.
- Real or faux pine garland turns balloons into holiday décor.
- Order early — December is the busiest shipping month.
A classic palette, elevated
Red and green can easily tip into “store display”. The way to make it feel like a magazine Christmas is depth: deep crimson and evergreen instead of fire-engine red and bright green, with plenty of gold chrome to warm it up. Then add natural texture — pine garland, berries and pinecones — so the balloons blend into the season instead of sitting on top of it.
The Christmas Morning palette is built on exactly that idea: crimson, evergreen and gold chrome latex in mixed sizes, ready to be dressed with greenery and gold star balloons.

Where to put a Christmas arch
- Around the tree — frame it for the family photo.
- Over the fireplace — a garland across the mantel with stockings beneath.
- The front door — a 5–10 ft welcome for guests (cover from rain).
- Holiday party photo wall — 10–20 ft with a “Merry & Bright” sign.
- Office lobby or party room — 20–40 ft for the company event.
- Santa photo station — for neighbourhood, school or church events.
Building the Christmas Morning look
Anchor each side with large evergreen and crimson balloons, then climb with mixed clusters and plenty of gold chrome near the top. Wrap faux pine garland along the outside curve, tucking in red berry picks and a few pinecones. Tape gold star foils at the top corners. At the base, wrapped gifts, lanterns and a mini tree (styling props) complete the scene. String warm-white fairy lights through the garland for evening parties — the gold will sparkle.
Stylist tipKeep the arch away from the fireplace’s heat and from radiators — warm air softens latex quickly.
Pair it with the rest of the party
- Table: cream or plaid linen, gold chargers, evergreen napkins.
- Florals: red roses, amaryllis and eucalyptus.
- Drinks: cranberry spritzers and hot cocoa bar.
- Activity: a cookie-decorating station in front of the arch.
- Photo props: Santa hats, a vintage sign, a red sled.

Timing for the holidays
December is the busiest month for shipping. Kits ship boxed in about 5–7 days with free US shipping, so order by early December for mid-month parties, and add expedited ($50) or rush ($99) if you’re cutting it close. For displays that need to last more than a few days, keep the arch indoors, out of sun and away from heat vents.
