Shabby Chic Christmas Décor

December 6, 2019 By creatingyourspace Leave a Comment

We spend a lot of time and effort in designing our homes and tailoring them to our style. Having a Shabby Chic style can say a lot about you. This pastel, vintage wonderland can create a soft and dreamy oasis. Everything in your design has a purpose and place to help achieve the vintage look. However, traditional holiday décor may not always go with your home theme. While holidays décor is timeless, Shabby Chic has a very distinctive color palette and styling. Adding a forest-green tree with red bulbs can seem to clash with your home design. So, this year, why not make your Christmas décor accommodate your home? Investing in Shabby Chic seasonal décor is just another way to take more pride in your style even during the holiday seasons.

Christmas Tree

What is Christmas without a Christmas tree? While traditional styles may call for a rugged pine, your home will thrive with a more frosted look. Look for a frosted white, all-white, or silver Christmas tree this holiday season. You can decorate this beautiful tree with silver tinsel, pastel bulbs, and your favorite antique ornaments. This conversion from the traditional tree to a Shabby Chic appearance will make it hard for you to take down the décor after Christmas passes! Consider even the wrapping paper you use. Go with wrapping paper designs that complement your design in order to take your Christmas tree scene to the next level. Top it off with some white lights and a floral tree skirt to help complete the whole look!

Christmas Wreaths and Garland

Another aspect that is part of every Christmas design is the wreath. If you have already converted your Christmas tree to a Shabby Chic style, consider changing out your Christmas wreaths and garland. Having them be uniform with your tree can help accessorize your design. Plus, adding some Christmas bulbs and accessories to spruce up the look never hurts. In fact, you will find that these are great ways to help keep your design flowing throughout your space.

Other Décor

Also, your whole home is an outlet to express yourself. There are thousands of décor options for Shabby Chic homes to use during Christmas. From antique fireplace mantel décor to cute laced stockings to candles, you will have endless options to express yourself. Remember to keep your theme focused and agreeing with your current design. Do not over clutter your home during the holiday season so you can keep it feeling homey and well-kept.

All these little tricks will help complete your home. Remember, you can decorate your home how you want. If you love Shabby Chic, take pride in your design and let your Christmas decor also feel beautiful.

Rustic Christmas Decor

December 5, 2019 By creatingyourspace Leave a Comment

Do you love Rustic design? Many homeowners and businesses love to incorporate this authentic, homey style to create a cozy environment. It takes the strengths of nature and facilitates them throughout your space while the earthy tones help ground the design. This rural design style is charming, and unpretentiously uses many raw elements of nature and ties them together in the design.

Christmas Tree

Fireplace Mantle

In many Rustic home designs, fireplaces are classic focal points of living rooms. They help create the Hygge and comfort in your home. Plus, winter is a perfect time to have a fire and really facilitate this feature in your home. Try to decorate your fireplace mantle with some very Rustic-inspired Christmas décor. Garland and pines are excellent. You can also look for some cozy-looking stockings to hang from your fireplace mantle. Creating this scene will make your space feel very comforting and cozy while perfectly complementing your Rustic design!

Seasonal Décor

Art Deco Christmas Decor

December 4, 2019 By creatingyourspace Leave a Comment

As Art Nouveau faded out of style, a new era of Art Deco began to take its place in the interior design industry. Prior to the 1920s, very robust and extravagant styling was compacted into interior design; however, Art Deco began to take a more minimalistic and futuristic approach to this styling. While keeping very bold pieces and lavish styling, Art Deco included very geometrical patterns and bold statements throughout the design. This style is still used today by people who love Art Deco for what it was. If you love Art Deco or have your home styled after Art Deco, you may have a difficult time decorating for Christmas. Many traditional Christmas decorations would look out of place in this design; however, there are still many ways to decorate for the season while still giving homage to this exotic, glamourous style.

Christmas Tree

What makes up many focal points in Art Deco are metals and geometric patterns. Consider creating your own interpretation of a Christmas tree. A triangular figure with consistent lines or a gold, metallic, or chrome frame can be the perfect way to incorporate this into your home. There are many Art Deco Christmas tree designs to explore. In fact, there are several unique and fun ways to have this past interpretation of a futuristic look and adapt it to Christmas. Just remember, with Art Deco, you want your Christmas tree to stand out and be bold.

Lighting

Lighting can be your connecting-ground between the two styles. Art Deco often uses metallic finished or glass lighting to help create the theme. Be creative and try to find ways of making your Christmas lighting complement the style of your home. Plus, it can also be a chance to use color lights in order to add more colors to your space.

Décor

Remember, lavish and stunning details help create this glamorous look. Whether ornaments or another décor piece, think bold and shiny. Adding some flare to your space can go a long way in Art Deco. Look for repetition in geometrical patterns to help create this style throughout your home. Allow your space to feel uniform while also festive.

Art Deco is a fascinating style. It can take some time to master, but once it is done correctly, it can be quite stunning. If you have this style in your own home, do not let your holiday décor clash with it. Find a way to have the two themes complement each other and thrive together in creating the perfect Art Deco Christmas oasis.
