Christmas Decor Essentials

Our Christmas decor essentials are classic pieces like garland, knit stockings, and vintage-inspired decor to create a festive holiday home!

While it’s still too early to start decorating for Christmas, it’s definitely not too early to start planning your holiday decor and ordering those pieces that always sell out fast! I pulled together the essentials I rely on every year and a few new pieces I’ll be adding to our collection this year.

Wreath | Bells | Ribbon | Ornament | Branch | Frame | Art Print | Throw | Candles | Stocking | Lumbar Pillow | Square Pillow | Ceramic Houses | Tree Collar | Garland

Just like any other season or holiday, I tend to decorate using classic pieces that I’ll love for years to come. I avoid anything too “themey” and rely on textiles, art, and accessories to convey the feeling of the season.

Obviously decorating for Christmas is a little different than decorating for spring, summer or autumn, because I do like to layer in a lot of holiday cheer with greenery, subtle decor, and of course a big statement tree. But I also add pieces like new pillows, a throw, and inexpensive art that will stay long after the Christmas season is over. It’s these pieces that help transition our home to winter once the tree comes down and the twinkle lights are packed away.

Our holiday decor this year will be very similar to last year (here), I’ll be using a lot of navy, blue, white, and a little bit of brown throughout our home. While this is my go-to palette lately, I did try something very different a few years ago, you can see it here.

I hope our holiday picks will inspire your own holiday decor, and remember if you’re planning to add any new pieces to your collection this year order it soon! Find even more holiday decor ideas below, or visit our Christmas Shop page for our current favourites.

Am I the only one that feels like our home is neve Am I the only one that feels like our home is never really finished, even after a big renovation? 🙋🏻‍♀️We shared our finished renovation a few months ago but we knew there would still be additions to make in the weeks and months ahead. I've added a few new pieces of decor and we installed a custom roman shade, but the biggest change we made was replacing our kitchen appliances. It's a big investment, but one that is worth it.We partnered with our friends at @frigidairecanada to update our existing appliances and today we are sharing all about it, from why we chose @frigidairecanada appliances again to the favourite features we're swooning over.
