Christmas Living Room Decor Ideas

Your living room is the heart of your home all year long, but it feels extra important once the holidays roll around. Getting out your favorite holiday decorations can be a lovely and overwhelming experience all at the same time. You can decorate your bookshelves, coffee table, couch, and fireplace (or create one) to fill every inch of your living room with an extra dose of holiday cheer. There are options for every type of decorator to take advantage of old, new, and even handmade decor.

A Marvelous Mantel

Interior designer Gillian Segal made a statement by dressing up her fireplace to give Santa a warm welcome. While the larger-than-life assortment commands plenty of attention, its cool, neutral palette keeps it from feeling over-the-top.

 

Layers Of Lights

"More is more," says Matthew Bees, decorator behind this eclectic room. "The holidays are meant to be extravagant! Instead of a tree skirt, try a vintage fishbowl or planter. It heightens the tree and gives you more room for Santa's surprises," he adds.

Christmas Wall Decor

Create a dynamic wow-looking wall for your living room. All you need is just a fantastic rotating water wave lamp. Make your living room look christmas is much easier than you ever think.
