Make the colors work
More than a set of swatches.
Choose one festive accent to lead
Sporting Crimson puts red in the action role, while Forest Floor favors green. Use one for the primary action and reserve the other for a supporting graphic. Equally strong competing buttons weaken the decision.
Do not rely on red versus green
Availability, delivery deadlines and form errors need words and symbols in addition to color. Check those messages with color-vision simulations and on the smallest layout. Seasonal character should not hide essential shopping information.
Try it on a real task
Check a delivery deadline, an out-of-stock message and a checkout action together. Give each a specific label. A festive red-green pairing is decoration until the interface explains what those colors mean.
