The Ornaments & Garland

Choose simple round ornaments in glossy peach and aqua that stand out just enough from the white branches. "Any shade darker than pastel would look too harsh," says Lindsey. And try a glitzy garland such as this metallic beaded variety that coordinates with all the other sherbet shades in the room. What a statement piece!
