Wondering how to decorate for Christmas? - Have a theme in mind!
Your holiday decor should line up and feel in context with your personal design style. When decorating for Christmas think first about the style of your home, the colour palette and build your Christmas decor upon the pieces your own. And most importantly streamline the decorating process by committing yourself to a colour palette.
Four elements to consider in your holiday decor, that makes the whole space feel festive:
1. Christmas Tree
Do you want to give your Christmas decorations a " WOW" factor? Then opt for an un-expected, with a little quirk, a little personality Christmas tree. Whether you are looking for the perfect tree to match your decor or just prefer an unexpected holiday colour scheme, a blue Christmas tree is always a beautiful choice.
While the ornaments are crucial to tree decoration, I love a fabulous tree topper and a non-traditional tree base.
2. Front Entry
Make a strong first impression with a thoughtful, creative Christmas decor that will instantly put everyone in the holiday spirit. A well-appointed front door is a great way to bring the holiday spirit to your guests before they step inside your home. You can add style to your entry with a berry-filled holiday look. It's an easy way to incorporate a pop of colour into your Christmas decorating theme.
3. Mantel/ Second Focal Point (e.g. stairs or your entryway)
Sprinkling Christmas decor around your house doesn't have to feel overwhelming or overpowering. Holiday cheer can come in small doses, but still make a big impact. The biggest statements can often come in small packages.
4. Table Setting
In the midst of your holiday planning, don't overlook your dining table. Decorating your dining table for Christmas is a simple way to get into the holiday spirit and to show your loved ones and guests a little extra love.
Choosing one statement decoration piece allows you to keep the rest of the decor simple, freeing up the table for food and drinks.
Easy Ways to Make Your Home Smell Like Christmas:
Your home should smell as good as it looks. You can't help but get into the holiday spirit when your olfactory sense is tickled by the scent of gingerbread and Christmas trees.
The simplest way to get your home smelling like the holidays is to light a candle in your favourite seasonal scent.
Christmas tree scented ornaments make any faux tree smell like a real one. Whether adding scent to your artificial tree or enhancing the scent of your real tree, these scentsicles create that magical Christmas feeling.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!
