Pretty Christmas Living Rooms.Although the weather outside might be frightful, your décor inside can remain delightful.Add Christmas touches to your living room with these decorating tips to change yourroom from everyday décor to holiday cheer…without emptying your pocket book.
Liz’ Tips
Liz’ TipsBy: Liz Quinn of Design’in-MindMaximum Impact with Minimal InvestmentBrockville, Ontario
Use a Simple Color SchemeA classic white living room can be holiday-ready in minutes with a few pops of red.Keep the decorating to a minimum and yourliving room Christmas cozy with a simplered-and-white beaded garland strung acrossthe mantel and set reindeer-theme (or otherChristmas theme) accent pillows on chairs..Have a non-functioning fireplace? Just stackbirch logs in the fireplace
Swap Artwork for Christmas-ThemePrintsThe Christmas tree is often the focal pointof the living room, but remember to spreada little cheer throughout the room. Replaceeveryday artwork with yuletide-themeimages, such as the framed vintage postershown here.
Choose a Smaller TreeTry a smaller Christmas tree to avoid over-whelming a cozy room. To give a downsizedtree more prominence and height, pot it in atall garden urn. Then outfit the tree with anout-of-the-ordinary color scheme, such as theaqua and orange seen here, which can beincorporated into the rest of the room. Or,of course, add colours to incorporate yourexisting room décor.
Add Cheer without a MantelHave a fireplace but no mantel? Compensatefor the bare facade with an oversize wreath,which fills the space above the fireplace.Complete the look by adding some festivedecorations to the hearth, such as berrybranches in a pitcher or miniature decorativecone trees.
Keep Christmas Additions CasualFor a formal space, keep things simple withlow-key Christmas decorations. Here, thestately tree becomes the room's focal point,bearing a graceful assortment of red, gold,and silver ornaments. Sprigs of greenery, goldpainted pinecones, and leaf vines loungeon the mantel, and candle-and-ornamentarrangements add sparkle to the side table andcoffee table.
Create Cabin-Style Christmas CheerStay true to your decorating roots. Coordi-nate holiday decorations to fit the style ofthe house. Here, this cabin used earthy reds,greens, and golds for Christmas cheer.
Decorate with AntiquesAntiques -- such as the ornate candle sconesabove the fireplace, five-generations worthof ornaments on the Christmas tree, and aweathered old trunk -- fill this living roomwith history. The boughs of magnolia drapedacross the mantel and the square wreath hungabove are fresh additions to the decor.
Set the Scene with PoinsettiasBright poinsettias and Santa's sleigh set theholiday scene in this living room. A red-and-green drum added to the coffee table and a Santapillow tossed on the sofa reinforce the theme.
Enjoy a Safe & Merry Christmas!
Hang a Unique WreathGive your living room a modern spin for theholidays -- and focus on the fireplace -- witha non-traditional wreath. Fill a wicker basketwith freshly clipped evergreen boughs, leafystems, and berried twigs from the backyardand hang above the fireplace. Tie the decortogether with more greenery in a rustic urnby the chair and on the mantel as a simplegarland.
Accent a Central TableGive your living room a modern spin for theholidays -- and focus on the fireplace -- with anon-traditional wreath. Fill a wicker basketwith freshly clipped evergreen boughs, leafystems, and berried twigs from the backyard andhang above the fireplace. Tie the decor togetherwith more greenery in a rustic urn by the chairand on the mantel as a simple garland.
Play Up Colors in Your HomeUse the existing color scheme in your livingroom to inspire your Christmas decorations.Wide gold ribbon wrapped around the tree tiesinto the golden walls to create an earth-tonelook. Off-white stockings match the fireplaceand some of the tree ornaments to tie the decortogether.
MixModern and Traditional DecoratingStylesIf you like to stick with traditional colors, mixyour decorating styles for a fun holiday look.Hang tall socks on the fireplace mantel asstockings, and stack wrapped presents and oldsuitcases in an unused fireplace. Display abouquet of holiday poinsettias in a white vaseon a coffee table next to a tray of white pillarcandles, ornaments, and greenery. Usepinecones and burlap accents to bring a rusticand comfortable feel to your Christmas living
room.and on the mantel as a simple garland.
Make Your Decorations SparkleNot a traditional holiday decorator? Dressup your living room with sparkling accentsto create a cheery feel for Christmas. Setclusters of silver, gold, and icy blue orna-ments on the mantel in clear vases andapothecary jars nestled amongst a leafygarland. A string of light blue beads dan-gling from the mantel along with whitestockings create a soft festive look. Off tothe side, the frosted tree is what reallysparkles, with white lights and icy blue andsilver accent ornaments.
TIP:Avoid overcrowding a room with numerous Christmas décor ornaments.Swap your decorations: it is best to remove (and store) a regular item andreplace it with a festive one. ~ After the holidays are over, pack away yourdecorations & return all regular items to their choice location.
