From decking your cabinets with wreaths and ribbons to adding a vase of poinsettias to your kitchen island, the options for adding Christmas ambiance in your home are endless. You’ll be spending lots of time baking Christmas cookies and catching up with loved ones, so let’s make it merry! Given any style and budget, let us inspire you with some decorating ideas for Christmas kitchen below.
Kitchen Cabinet Christmas Decor
Decorating your kitchen cabinets with Christmas decor can be a wonderful way to transform your space into a holiday wonderland. Adding seasonal greenery including evergreen wreaths and swag can be used as a focal point for this trend. You can keep the Christmas foliage simple or tie festive tartan plaids or metallic ribbons into bows. Intertwine with twinkling lights for a bit of sparkle or add pinecones and berries to keep a more natural and rustic feel.
Other ways to add holiday cheer to your cabinets is by incorporating decorative towels, lighting accents and Christmas figurines to your display. Create a charming Christmas scene complete with a snow filled village, nutcrackers or Santa’s fleet of reindeer. Place small votive candles or tea lights alongside your miniature village to evoke a cozy atmosphere or add some fake snow to feel like you have been transported to the North Pole. With these decorative details, you can personalize and spruce up your kitchen cabinets this holiday.
Kitchen Island Christmas Decor
Christmas time offers a unique opportunity to decorate your kitchen island while creating culinary creativity. Designing a beautiful centerpiece with seasonal fruits like oranges, pears and pomegranates as well as with pine cones, cinnamon sticks and a touch of greenery is a simple way to create the joyful ambiance.
Using a decorative bowl adds to the display while lighting some candles can add warmth and an inviting glow. Organize some floral arrangements in addition to edible ones including gingerbread houses, candy canes and cookie jars with fresh cookies for guests to enjoy.
Small figurines and Christmas trees can be put on display to spread holiday cheer on your kitchen island. Jolly carolers, carrot- nosed snowmen and Christmas elves can create a magical scene alongside miniature Christmas trees. Tiny ornaments, mini lights and a star topper is just enough to bring the holiday spirit alive.
Kitchen Table Christmas Decor
A Christmas-themed tablescape can be exactly what your kitchen needs this season. Holiday-themed dishware, Christmas mugs, and serving platters are simple ways to set a joyful and inviting atmosphere for gatherings and holiday meals. Starting with a classic Christmas patterned tablecloth, runner or placemats can lay the foundation for the rest. Set each place with holiday plates, glasses and napkins adorned with holiday rings.
Dressing up a kitchen table with a floral or fruit centerpiece and pillar candles are stunning additions that go a long way. Scatter some holiday baubles and ornaments to accessorize. You can add a personal touch to your kitchen table for family and friends by adding name cards to each setting at a seated meal. Whether you opt for a snowflake, reindeer, Santa or Christmas village inspired table theme, you are sure to make your holiday celebrations memorable.
Kitchen Window Christmas Decorations
Kitchen window Christmas decorations are a whimsical way to elicit the joyful holiday both inside and outside of the home. Garlands can be added to window sills or atop your kitchen windows with pine cones and shiny ornaments to give a festive flair while hanging wreaths in the center of your windows, adorned with bows, are a stylish choice. Wrapping the greenery with classic white string lights or jumbo multi-colored bulbous lights can add to your holiday theme. Use a fake snow spray in the corners and bottom of the windows to finish your wintry look and place some battery- operated candles for a welcoming glimmer.
Window stickers and decals featuring holiday motifs like ornaments, wreaths and Christmas presents are another way to add a playful touch while entertaining observers. Getting the whole family to join, including the little ones is a fun way to include everyone into this project.
If DIY is more your speed, you can get creative by drawing festive scenes with window markers or paints. Designing faux stained glass can also be achieved by using tissue paper or cellophane. You can cut out various holiday shapes to catch the light through the windows that display a colorful landscape. With a little bit of creativity, your kitchen windows can be a beautiful holiday feature of your home.
