Why green and red are the definitive Christmas colors?
In: 72
Green comes from the norther European traditions of decorating with evergreens for the midwinter festival, presumably because of the association with the rebirth of spring. Red probably because of colour contrast. But it’s noteworthy that when Christmas trees became popular in the U.K. and then the USA gold was the usual colour of ornaments.
So, like all things it evolves over time.
