Holiday Decor Is About Making the Season Yours

Holiday home decor is an expression of you. It has so much to do with the way you spend the season, how you celebrate with friends and loved ones, and which traditions, new and old, you want to share. This year, we’ve been eyeing moody curations—well-lit but cozy—and maximalist displays made for entertaining with brass barware, plenty of pattern, and full tables—but a rustic edit with some Scandi inspiration will never leave you cold. Some evolve their look as the season goes on, starting with more seasonal decorations and layering in Christmas decor or other more specific touches as the holidays approach.

To make the most of your curating this year, try starting with basic questions. How will you entertain—will guests be staying, or does your home play host to an annual holiday party? Hosting is as much about thoughtful details as it is about curating a photospread look. Stock those guest baths and pull the leaf out for the table. Just as important of a question—how will you unwind? The holidays can be hectic, and our homes should offer an escape from the bustle and cold. Try to find personal touches to make the space more livable and memorable for you and your family. Pick pieces that bring something distinct to the whole—opt for heirlooms over trinkets where possible.

Some of Our Favorite Holiday Decorations for the Mix 

Whether you opt for tastefully tailored traditions or embrace maximalist splendor, it all starts with the same ingredients. From timeless essentials to the season’s trends, here are some of our favorite decorations to warm your home for holidays to come. 

Well-Lit

Candles make great seasonal decorations. Adding a new votive or pillar to your usual mix is one of the best ways to make your space more cozy and festive without it feeling like full-on Christmas decor. In addition to a candle’s warm glow, scent can be a great way to curate a more specific feel in a room, to mark the season and make it more memorable. Placing candles in front of a mirror augments the light and adds depth—perfect for creating that moody holiday ambiance. 

If you’re looking to keep tradition with a fresh touch, something like the Swey Menorah by SIN marries modern lines with a timeless elegance that will shine in your design. 

Tablescapes and Trim 

From baubles and ornament to handcrafted pieces and bead garlands—holiday decor is all about adding bits of color and warmth to your space. Plenty of songs beckon us to trim the tree and hang stockings on the mantel, but seasonal flair should live throughout your home—an entryway vignette, unexpected touches on a bookshelf or curio. Try incorporating festive design moments as you would lighting elements, bringing warmth to every corner. 
When styling a tablescape, don’t forget visual interest isn’t just about layering texture; there should be variety in dimension too. One tip for tabletop decor is to always work in odd numbers. You might have heard of the rule of three, for some reason, odd numbers in vignettes are just more appealing. An assortment like our Wooden Tree Trio makes the perfect grouping because the staggered heights and varied silhouettes create visual interest while still feeling unified. 

Touch of Comfort

Don’t forget to pile on those extra cozy layers. Remixing or adding pillows and throws is one of the quickest ways to refresh a room—plus, they’ll keep you warm on winter nights. Throws make great gifts for friends and family because it’s a personal touch that the receiver can style however they please. Soft touches can be purely decorative too. We love textile wall hangings or stockings to cheer a space up and layer tactile moments throughout.

Fresher Textures

We love bringing some green into the mix at the holidays. Whether it’s found foliage, a fallen bow from a country walk, or something handcrafted like our Fresh Handmade Premium Winter Wreath, greenery is great because it brings naturally bright colors into the room and can straddle the holiday season from Thanksgiving on. Fresh wreaths and garlands will dry out after a few weeks but can still offer a brilliant dried botanical display through the new year.

Don’t be afraid to go for faux—faux foliage still gives you that burst of green you’re looking for, plus it can be stashed away and used again, which means buying less. You may have hesitations, remembering dusty ivy or plastic plants from waiting rooms or a grandparent’’ house, but faux foliage has come a long way and there is a range of beautiful options available. The key is to dress up your greenery. Living or fake, greenery should tie elements together rather than feeling like an afterthought. 

However you style it, holiday decor allows you the flexibility to showcase the nuances of your design aesthetic. Loved ones and visitors can immediately get a sense of who you are by seeing how you transform your home for a season of comfort and warmth.
