There’s something unexpectedly chic about a black and pink Christmas tree. It feels playful but still grown-up, like a mix of candy shop and midnight glamour. If you’ve ever wanted to try a theme that’s a little bold without going full neon, this combo hits that sweet spot. Here are a few ways to make it work, even if you’re decorating last minute or with whatever’s already in your storage bins.
1 | Matte Black Tree with Blush Ornaments
If you’ve got a matte black tree, soft pink ornaments look amazing against it. Go for mixed textures – glossy, glittery, fuzzy, even paper.
The pink lightens up the dark background so it doesn’t feel heavy.
You don’t need a matching set either; random shades of blush and rose gold blend just fine.
Try adding a few white snowflakes or silver balls to break up the pink. It looks pulled together without being too fussy.
2 | Pink Flocked Tree with Black Ribbon
A flocked pink tree already looks fun, so adding black velvet ribbon gives it a bit of contrast.
Wrap the ribbon loosely in spirals or tie it into messy bows at random spots.
If your tree leans pastel, the dark ribbon grounds it.
You can also use strips of leftover fabric instead of store-bought ribbon.
3 | Black Tree with Pink Feathers
If your space feels a bit plain, feathers instantly add that touch of drama.
Tuck pink feathers (the kind from craft stores) into the branches here and there. They catch the light beautifully and fill out sparse spots.
If you have a black feather boa lying around from Halloween, even better. This will work as a feathery garland and look glam.
4 | Pink Lights on a Black Tree
If your room lighting is dim, pink fairy lights change the whole vibe.
They make a black tree look warm and slightly mysterious instead of stark.
Don’t worry about perfect spacing – cluster some areas and leave others sparse.
The uneven glow looks softer.
You can even mix in a few white or warm lights if it feels too pink. It’s one of those little details that feels cozy at night.
5 | Minimal Pink and Black Ornaments on a Green Tree
If you already have a regular green tree, don’t skip this idea.
Just swap your usual color palette for black and pink accents.
Think pink baubles, black ribbon, and a few metallic touches. It gives a fresh twist without needing a themed tree.
Try adding black tulle or pink gift bows if you’re short on ornaments. It’s quick, easy, and looks thought-out.
6 | Pink Tree with Black and White Striped Accents
This one feels like candy cane meets Paris café.
Add black and white striped ribbon or ornaments to break up the pink.
The pattern keeps it fun, while pink lights keep it soft.
7 | Black Tree with Rose Gold Details
If full pink feels too sweet, rose gold is the perfect middle ground. It warms up the black without overpowering it.
Use metallic baubles, tinsel, or even copper fairy lights.
When the lights hit, everything glows a little.
Add a few clear glass ornaments to reflect the color. It ends up looking luxe but still approachable.
8 | Half-and-Half Tree
If you can’t decide between pink or black, split the difference.
Decorate one side mostly pink and the other mostly black.
This works best if your tree sits in a corner so you can play with perspective.
Add a neutral topper to tie both sides together – maybe silver or white.
9 | Pink Ornaments with Black Paper Stars
Paper stars add that handmade touch.
Use black cardstock or leftover craft paper and hang them with string.
The matte finish looks great against glossy ornaments. Plus, you can make them any size to fill empty gaps.
If you hang a few low, it draws the eye down and makes the tree feel taller.
10 | Pink Tree with Black Faux Fur Skirt
If your floor space looks bare, a faux fur tree skirt instantly changes the feel. Go for black or charcoal gray so the pink really stands out.
Fold it around the base, fluff it up, done. Add a few wrapped boxes in matching colors to complete the look.
11 | Black Tree with Pink Bows
Simple but seriously effective.
Grab pink ribbon (satin or velvet) and tie small bows directly onto branches.
It’s classic in a kind of old-fashioned way, but the color combo makes it fresh and modern.
If you want to layer it up, mix pale pink and magenta. The variation keeps it playful instead of flat.
12 | Ombre Effect with Pink Shades
If you’ve collected ornaments over the years in slightly different tones, this is the time to use them. Start with dark magenta at the bottom, mid-pinks in the center, and pale blush or silver near the top. Works beautifully on both black and green trees. It takes a little arranging but once done, it looks like you planned it for weeks. The gradient gives movement and makes even small trees look taller.
