Christmas Decorating Ideas

Christmas decorating ideas: tree themes, mantel styling, table settings and festive DIY decor.

Christmas is the season to go all out. These ideas help you create a festive home that still feels cohesive and stylish.

Choose a tree theme

Pick two or three colours and stick to them: classic red and gold, Nordic white and wood, or modern green and blush.

  • Add lights first, working from the trunk outwards.
  • Hang larger ornaments deep inside, smaller ones at the tips.
  • Finish with ribbon or garland.

Style the mantel and entry

Drape fresh or faux garland, layer candles and stockings, and welcome guests with a wreath on the door.

Set a festive table

Use a greenery runner, gold cutlery, pinecones and name tags for a thoughtful holiday dinner.
