Understated Holiday Decor
How do you simplify your holiday decor but still bring the “festive feeling” your family and friends crave near the end of the year? Check out the suggestions below for some ideas on how to create your own “Understated Holiday Haven.”
Focusing on the fixtures in your home can help to minimize the feeling of “holiday clutter” but simply dressing up what is already part of your everyday design.
Bells, velvet ribbons, and Rosemary sprigs add a classic and timeless element to any small space. The kitchen counters don’t have to be full of decor to make the “heart of your home” feel like Christmas.
Mini evergreen garland and ochre-colored ribbon add warmth and interest to your banister without much fuss.
Red berries are a classic addition to any vase, jar, or pitcher. Forget the pressure of a flower arrangement and lean into the simply beauty of a timeless Christmas staple.
Logs and evergreens in a woven basket with a fur blanket bring thoughts of cozy fires and nights filled with snow. It doesn’t have to “yell” Christmas for it to remind you of those magical winter days spent with those you love.
Evergreen tops and sprigs in small jars are an easy way to add a festive touch to any coffee table, nightstand, entryway, or dining table. A simple idea that not only adds design, but also the sweet smell of pine.
Let the greenery do the work at your table and keep everything else simple. Even folding the napkins is a breeze when you tie sprigs around each place-setting.
