![]() In this high-stress season of giving, turning your home into a minimalist Christmas sanctuary might be one of the best gifts you can give to yourself. Minimalist Christmas decorations don’t have to be boring-in fact, the calmness of simpler surroundings can make your space feel cozier than decking the halls to the nines with colorful clutter. If the chaos of Christmas fills you with dread, you might want to try a pared-down approach to seasonal decor this year. Unfortunately, this means that the most wonderful time of the year can quickly become overwhelming. It’s all about how to get the most amount of your personal style, using the least amount of your stuff.The holidays are all about going all out. No matter what your holiday style is, you will LOVE the Cozy Minimalist Welcomes Winter Class. It makes a big statement and at the end of the season I just hang it on a nail in the basement closet.Īll the photos above are very much my style, and maybe it’s your style too or maybe it’s not. Instead of using lots of small Christmas decor that has to be carefully packed away in bins, I love adding Christmas art to our home. It’s a table runner and I love using table runners over ottomans, chairs, as wall hanging and of course as table runners. This is folded over the chair in the photo above Amazon carries it the entire collection here. They’ve held up great and are shipped fully assembled. I have three pieces from this collection and I LOVE the simple yet sturdy style. The chair ( also on the cover of my book) is from Curations Home (although I think they have stopped manufacturing it). Here are a few faux first that are similar: Two boxes of ornaments and two strands of C9s and we’re done! I love the simplicity and the fact that you can see the ornaments and frankly, it requires a lot less decor to fill it up. We’ve also had a Silver Tip Fir that was similar with even more drastic layering and I liked it even more than the Noble. It’s been pruned at a young age on the farm, I think they called it “layered”. Our tree is a live Noble Fir from Pike’s Nursery. A single bolster on one side of the ottoman reminds me of those fancy high-class benches you see on Instagram. I found my single bolster at a thrift store. I like to mix in one or two splurge stockings with the less expensive ones to keep things interesting - Anthropologie always has some statement stockings.īolsters in lots of colors (less expensive) Did you know there’s not a rule against changing out your stockings? You don’t have to keep the same ones you picked out 13 years ago. I’ve collected a mixture of neutral stockings. Paired with metal, wood or white candle sticks, black candles make a statement and look great light. Everyone in our house, including the cats enjoys sitting on it in front of the fire. See how I have it draped over the ottoman in the first photo when you scroll to the top? Since it’s a rug with a suede backing, it will stay in place. This rug will transform your ottoman or bench, table, sideboard or back of chair into the coziest winter spot. Normally we keep it in the bay window area, but every winter we pull it out in front of the fireplace. I’ve had this for a few years and it’s so versatile. I love the vintage look and now lighting up the tree isn’t a big chore. I only need two strands of these on my tree (instead of like 10 strands of twinkle lights). I like the white ceramic bulbs because from far away they look larger than the clear bulbs. Bonus, in our rooms that can easily be filled with straight lines, it’s nice to balance it all with a circle full of wood. I love the simplicity and how it shows off the texture and beauty of the wood. I have the 24″ hoop inside on our hearth, and outside we have the 36″ hoop. Scroll down to see where to find these items and more… I’ve had lots of questions about this photo when I posted it on Instagram so I thought I’d share a few available resources.
