CHRISTMAS AND HOLIDAY LIVING ROOMS

Oznell — Tue, 26 Nov 2019 19:17:32 GMT

I love to look at images and mull ideas, and this "Gravetics" site has some fresh ones, I suspect because it's a British site and we don't necessarily see all their magazine images that much. (I guessed it was British b/c of the use of the word "colour", ha, and also spotted the living room of a well-known English designer in the mix...)

Fresh and pretty.

Ski vacation?

Love the chess set on the floor, and the "chalet" ambiance...

A colorful drum-- that's a neat decoration.

Stately.

Just the teensiest suggestion of holiday, in the vase's little silver balls, the candles etc.

Wheee.

Renaissance Christmas....

This has a casually stylish, almost retro 60's feeling to me..

The glimmer of multiple cottage mirrors next to a fire...

European natural....

These last two represent "traditional cozy" to me.

It's all in the variety! Happy Thanksgiving to one and all.

Love! Thanks for sharing, we're putting our tree up and decorating the house on Saturday. All ideas are welcome now. I know I'm going with a red&white theme this year but I don't have a plan.

I agree the last two look more traditional and I like them especially the mantel with the wooden trains. Doesn't look like Christmas threw up like my home LOL. The chandilier decorations in the first picture is something I could recreate as I have a similar dining room chandilier, Keeping in mind for next year. Enjoyed your post as always. Enjoy your Thanksgiving.

There are things I like about all of them. Our decorating will be simple this year. Happy Thanksgiving @Oznell.

Thanks for sharing these fun pictures. It's not a Christmas decoration but I love that mirror above the fireplace in the 8th picture. That colorful drum is so cute (The Little Drummer Boy is one of my favorite Christmas songs).

Enjoyed looking at all of them.

Love all of the pictures. I believe there is a style of holiday decor for everyone and it is so nice to share with others.

How does one decorate without a plan? You previously said it was candy canes. Oh well, you still have a few days to decide.

This year I find myself so happy with my fall/harvest decor that for once I'm in no hurry to switch to Christmas decor.

Thanks for all the variety, @Oznell

Happy Thanksgiving to you too, @Oznell... Some lovely and nicely festive rooms to enjoy... As always, some are more my personal taste than are others... At this point, though, I might take just about any of them since my place is an utter torn apart mess... I don't host Thanksgiving so am in the midst of the big Christmas home preparation meltdown...

Some of the frosty looks remind me of the front window of our Pier 1 store.

There are some great ideas here....thanks for sharing! One simple idea is in the first photo with the cake pedestal, candles and cranberry sprays - what a great idea!

Yeah, @GingerPeach, you have such pretty fall arrangements-- maybe some of them, or some elements, will seamlessly morph into your Christmas schemes...

Ahhh-- just pace yourself, busy @stevieb -- it'll all be worth it in the end!
