Your logo is the face of your brand, it speaks about the what your business is all about and the message you convey to the consumers. Your logo reflects professionalism and quality and is the window into the culture that your company is built upon.
So try to use a holiday theme, try to give your logo a subtly holiday makeover and try to use the holiday palette as opposed to your usual color schemes. Have some holiday fun and adorn your logo in holiday icons such as holly berries, snowman, or a pumkin.
The key is subtlety, take note that your logo is one of your brand’s identity. You don’t want your logo to be so into the holiday spirit that is beyond recognition. Have fun incorporating the Santa hats and the pumpkins into your brand but don’t forget to your company recognizable through the logo.
