Colorful Christmas Living Room
This holiday season, show off your hippie style in your living room. A large garland with wood beads, blush colors, and natural details make up this pretty-in-pink take on traditional Christmas decor. A bunch of different bottlebrush trees make the show fun and easy to do on a sofa table. Add touches of cream color to the room to make it feel light and airy.
Maximalist Christmas Living Room
If you like to do a lot, don’t let Christmas stop you. Try putting your holiday decorations together with things you use every day. Try putting up Christmas ornaments that go with the room’s color scheme. Use finishes and textures that are similar to make a look that flows without clashing with what you already have. Jewel-tone ornaments and gold finishes go well with the pink furniture and gallery wall in this maximalist Christmas living room.
Scandinavian Holiday Decorations
Antique skis, snowshoes, and other sports gear can bring the outdoors into your home. Red and white details will balance out the warm tones in the wood to make the perfect Scandinavian-style winter oasis. Adding bands of warm lights and a big garland to your mantel will make it feel even better.
Farmhouse Christmas Decorations
Look no further than this country living room if you want to spend Christmas in a farmhouse. Use simple, traditional Christmas colors and lots of warm, white furniture that has a nice sheen. Put up signs and artwork made of old wood, and add some plaid throw pillows to finish the look.
Modern Christmas Decor
Small holiday decorations bring out the modern feel of this living room. There is symmetry on the mantel with the small evergreen trees, bright pink ornaments, and pine flowers. Window wreaths made of geometric boxwood add cheer and decorate the built-in shelves.
Green Plaid Living Room
Beautiful country Christmas living room with stylish touches that are based on the classic red and white of baker’s twine. Simple holiday touches like a pine necklace, a galvanized tree collar, and a flocked evergreen wreath let the Christmas tree shine. To get a lush tree, decorate it in layers. Here are step-by-step steps on how to trim the tree.
Eclectic Christmas Decor
Michael Wurm Jr., a writer at Inspired by Charm, gives his living room a new theme every year. He puts ribbons, baubles, and his best ornaments on his Christmas tree, no matter what the theme is. Everything in his living room is shiny and green, from the simple gold wreaths on the wall to the gifts under the tree that are wrapped in buffalo check paper.
Farmhouse Christmas Living Room
This is Kelly Elko’s living room. It has a bold blue velvet sofa, an outdoor rattan chair, and a midcentury take on a wing-back chair. Kelly chose white ornaments for the tree because the room already had a lot of red holiday decor. “I put our family ornaments in a big bowl so we could still look through them,” she adds.
Simple Christmas Living Room
The Christmas tree in this living room has a lot of unique decorations on it, like eucalyptus wreaths, pomegranates, and lamb’s ear. The traditional red and green tree looks great with neutral touches like wood pillar candles, simple presents, and gifts wrapped in butcher paper.
Bold Christmas Living Room
These traditional green Christmas decorations for the living room look great with white furniture and a gray rug. A chunky braided garland and bright ball ornaments look great on a sparse tree. Add a stack of wrapped gifts in patterns that go with the theme to finish off the look.
Silver and Gold Living Room
People are drawn to this Christmas living room! A big holiday sign draws attention to a group of small houses that stick out from a decoration made of eucalyptus, pinecones, and small berries. To finish off the Christmas mantel, wooden tags are used to name the faux fur stockings.
Use Traditional Elements for a Classic Look
This fancy holiday living room is held together by a soft flocked Christmas tree. Add fake flower blooms, bows, and lots of ornaments to make it look better. Instead of paper wrappers, gift boxes that match the decor’s color scheme look better. A wreath with embellishments and silk stockings will add a touch of glitz.
Create a Coffee Table Centerpiece
Christmas living rooms don’t have to be redone from top to bottom. A cozy log look is made by putting together strong red plaids, natural greens, and other woodsy elements. The room is cozy and warm thanks to faux fur pillows and a roaring fire.
Let Bold Decor Dictate
Add some Christmas-themed items to your coffee table to make it look more like Christmas. For your living room, gather pinecones, cedar twigs, poinsettias, or winter fruit to show off. For an extra sweet welcome, switch out the fruit for a platter of cookies when friends (or Santa) arrive.
Utilize Vintage Finds
If your living room has bright colors, make them stand out all year with holiday decorations that go with them. The bright blue cabinet is a great place to start for a fun and festive color scheme. Ornaments in light blue, hot pink, lime green, and bright white look great all over this cozy Christmas living room.
Metallic Christmas Living Room
If you want to feel like Christmases past, look at old Christmas ornaments for ideas. Paint-chipped furniture and old glass pieces look great with burlap, soft red accents, and live greens. When you cut evergreens, they look like they belong at Christmas.
