Christmas is approaching and as we wait in joy, we adorn our homes with beautiful Christmas decorations: on the front door, on the windowsill, above the fireplace, on the wall.
A Christmas tree of lights can brighten up the wall without using space, or bunches of decorated branches or paper garlands can decorate our windows. Candlesticks take on a festive look and tree branches are transformed into chandeliers. Christmas ornaments can be added to baskets or even pretty dishes.
So get inspired by these ideas spotted on Pinterest, making it easy and cheap to create a Christmas atmosphere that will amaze your loved ones…
GOLDEN ORNAMENTS HANGING FROM A CHANDELIER
The gold and copper color of the ornaments will perfectly complement the candlelight.
VASES LINED UP ON THE WINDOWSILL
Nothing could be simpler or more refined to dress up your window. You can fill them with pinecones and dried branches!
A SIMPLE EVERGREEN WREATH HANGING ON A DOOR
If you like the minimalist style, just use the beautiful green of the wreath, with white artificial snow on it to instill a Christmas spirit.
A NATURAL GARLAND
Instead of a plastic garland, use a real one to create a very natural atmosphere.
WHITE CANDLES BEHIND GLASS
Decorated simply with small branches, glass candle holders bring a refined and luminous note to your home.
BASKETS FILLED WITH CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS
Pick the colors of the ornaments to be in harmony with your Christmas tree.
PAPER GARLANDS ACROSS YOUR WINDOWS
Made very simply in white or colored paper, garlands such as these will give a fairytale touch to the window of a room.
A TREE BRANCH FOR A COUNTRY CHIC SPIRIT
You can paint the branch white and hang pretty decorations. A natural and chic effect is guaranteed!
A DECORATION IN PASTEL SHADES
How about an original and poetic Christmas table that’s also easy to make?
MINIATURE CHRISTMAS TREES TO SCATTER AROUND
In addition to the big tree, you can put small trees everywhere in the house. To cover their bases, nothing could be simpler than kraft paper.
A BUNCH OF BRANCHES IN A VASE
Bare branches decorated with small ornaments will create a magical winter bouquet.
A GOURMET DETAIL THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING
Decorate your place settings with a fir branch and a gingerbread. Children will love it!
A TREE MURAL
