Embellish your home for the holiday season with these favorite Christmas decor items.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Whether it’s the twinkling of holiday lights, the sweet smell of a pine tree, or the sound of your favorite carols playing in the background, Christmas decorations bring the joy of the season into our homes. But which indoor Christmas decorations are the must-haves?

In this article, we’ll explore the top favorite holiday decorations that bring the Christmas spirit to life. From wreaths to Christmas ornaments, we’ll share our favorite decor ideas to make your home festive and merry. So grab your hot chocolate and get ready to add some holiday cheer to your interior.

Classic red Christmas tree decorations are my go to for Christmas decorating. They are versatile and can be changed up easy.

Neutral Christmas Decor Items

If a minimalist Christmas style is more to your liking, look no further for ideas! This winter wonderland is a minimalist's dream with simple color schemes and beautiful decoration that makes a big impact. Take a look at more specifics for Christmas neutral decorating here.

Garland

If you have banisters or a fireplace mantel, this is a fun way to add garland. I prefer to use Norfolk garland and velvet ribbon to tie it onto my stair banister. Add string lights or fairy lights for a little extra sparkle, though I love the simplicity of the greenery alone. (See links below for all this holiday decor.)

Achieve this same look by draping garland across the top or hanging along the front of your Christmas mantel. Add a few matching Christmas stockings and your look will be complete.

Christmas Staircase

Ribbon

Don't underestimate the value of a good ribbon. Satin ribbon is a simple option for adding Christmas cheer to your holiday packages. White boxes with the neutral greens and browns are the perfect way to minimize. You can also use the same ribbon for embellishing your Christmas tree decorations. And don't forget to throw in a cute tree skirt too.

I also used ribbon on the mantel and tree to tie everything together.

Small Gold Accents

Gold is another color that will work in a neutral color palette. The bells are a great way to add a touch of vintage flair. And the gold candle sticks add an elegant touch and tie in with the gold beads.

White Ornaments

Have you ever thought about incorporating white into your tree? I absolutely love these white tree ornaments because they can go with anything. Use a velvet ribbon to hang these, instead of a hook or fishing line. The added elegance and color makes a big difference.

You can find any of my favorite neutral Christmas decor items here.

Tabletop and Mantel Decor

Tabletop Christmas trees like this wool felt tree are a perfect accent for a coffee table or adding onto your Christmas mantel.

Pinewood and stoneware mini trees are ideal for Christmas table decorations. Add them as a feature focal point for your dining room table or use for open shelving.

These tree shaped taper candles are some of the best Christmas decorations for placing on a mantel or using on a dining table for added elegance. The neutral beige coloring fits right in for a natural look.

Small figurines like this one are nice because you can usually use them for multiple holidays in fall and winter. The natural wood coloring makes it so the decor isn't overwhelming, but also stands out.

Gold candle holders are another way to add elegance. Throw in some flameless candles and enjoy the subtle gold sparkle. The different heights brings needed dimension and style.

Greenery

Beautiful Norfolk Pine garland that I use on my stair bannister and mantel. I've even thrown some on my dining table center for more festive Christmas decorations at the table.

Boxwood wreaths are a beautiful neutral accessory to any type of decor. Hang on your front door or if it is a small wreath, add it to your interior decor and prop up on your mantel or along an entry table.

Tree Decor

I'm all about the Christmas tree sparkles and this flocked glass ornament is no exception. These small ornaments are neutral and fit right in with your other tree decor.

If you need a little neutral shimmer, try out these golden mercury ball ornaments. They pair really nicely with my tree toppers and handmade DIY Rub n' Buff painted ornaments.

Don't miss these beautiful gold bells that make the perfect accent to your hanging on a tree, mantel or door.

Gold bead garland can be really classy when you add it to the right Christmas tree or string it along a mantel. Plus, if you end up pairing it with Christmas lights it will really add an extra sparkle.

These frozen white and silver glass ornaments add the perfect amount of elegance to a neutral space.

Golden brown satin ribbon is stunning with earthy tones and natural palette. But it is also available in other colors too!

Velvet ribbon makes a gorgeous accent when using it to tie ornaments or as a trim.

Traditional Christmas Decor Favorites

Every year when I am getting ready to pull out Christmas decor I always look at ways I can change things up without it costing a fortune. This year I decided to change things with some new pillows, garlands, throws and a few little trees. Super easy and cost effective.
