Christmas is one of the happiest times of year when family and friends gather to celebrate, relax and enjoy one another’s company. Now more than ever we are staying in the comfort of our homes and realising just how important it is to create a space you really love. With this in mind, Crown have created a new collection of colours inspired by Christmas. So, before you decide to put up the Christmas tree and hang the decorations this year, have a look at the Crown Paints Colourmix Christmas Collection for some inspiration.

 

The Crown Paints Colourmix Christmas palette will create a sophisticated mood with deeper, richer shades that glow with quiet intensity brining lustre and sparkle into your home. The collection takes its inspiration from the festive season, both traditional and contemporary with stunning colours that point to the future.

 

Paint is a simple and cost effective way to transform a space. If you love classic colours that create warmth there is a huge selection of shades to choose from in the Crown Paints Colourmix Christmas Collection.

 

The traditional tones of ‘Christmas Cheer’ & ‘Yule Tide’ take muted burgundy and green back in time to a Victorian home full of depth and atmosphere. These colours are perfect in both period and modern houses to give personality and intensity to any hall, living or dining room, kitchen or bathroom.

 

As we embrace the celebrations of the season we think of theatrical tones full of flamboyance and glamour. ‘Three Kings’ & ‘Holly Berry’ are rich dramatic colours of bright red and golden yellow, full of intensity and opulence. These tones generate warmth and light so are perfect to create a joyful mood in the room that is often the heart of the home, the kitchen.

 

One of the things we all love to do at this time of year is to put up the Christmas tree. To really create the perfect space and homely atmosphere, be sure to look at ‘Pear Tree’ which is a rich vibrant green and ‘Christmas Carol’ which is a shimmering frosty green. These tones can be used in any room as an accent or on all walls to create a natural mood. The natural green tones found within the tree are the inspiration for ‘Pear Tree’ & ‘Christmas Carol’.

 

More and more people are now looking at their house as a home and creating a space that they truly enjoy. One trend that is coming through is the desire for a contemporary and modern design that still creates an inviting and liveable space. If you are one of these trend setters there are some stunning shades that will work in your home perfectly to set a modern style.

 

More contemporary in mood are ‘Christmas Cracker’ & ‘Wrapping Paper’. The sparkle and lustre we associate with Christmas is the inspiration for these jewelled tones, one a vibrant pink and the other a regal purple. They are the perfect shades to create a sophisticated atmosphere in any room or to make a real statement for any modern apartment, accent wall or period renovation.

 

Getting away from all the glitz, a country walk on a frosty day is the inspiration for the sophisticated tones of ‘Christmas Stocking’ & ‘Christmas Past’. These modern colours are the perfect shades to create a restful calming haven and contain blue and green diffused in a crisp white.

 

A snow covered landscape is something we all dream about at this time of year. ‘Swans a Swimming’ & ‘Christmas Card’ conjure up this image with a deep snowy white and a soft pale green. These tones are modern and ageless making any space feel larger, brighter and cleaner.

 

As a collection, these colours can be mixed and coordinated together in an incredibly exciting way. The combinations are endless and remember the inspiration may have been Christmas but the colours will last for years to come. A real feast for the senses.
