Minimalist Christmas Decor

minimalist christmas decorChristmas is coming and I am fascinated with minimalist Christmas decor ideas. Since a recent downsizing to a smaller place, we plan on keeping it simple this year and I simply love some of the ideas I’ve found. Here, I love those sizable Christmas balls on a small natural tree. Tree pillows are a nice touch as well. Try splashing some red ones in your apartment living room, especially on dark furniture.

minimalist-christmas-decor-ideas-19I love minimalist gift wrapping in soft colors instead of the traditional reds and greens or silver and golds. Opt for beige, tan, gray and white or black and white for a minimalist Christmas change. Image above and below via Digs Digs.

Love this super minimal Christmas tree with lights below among the pine cones. Simple cut out decorations are a nice touch. Best of luck with your minimalist Christmas decor!

 

Christmas Decor – Mantles

Christmas---Modern---Mantel-decoration2Christmas is Christmas with white touches including snow flakes and lights. I like the green ivy instead of a traditional pine styled greenery.

Shabby-ChristmasWhite on white is classic shabby chic design and it’s even more beautiful with Christmas decor in Bethlehem Pa apartments. The white vintage look bobbles on the Christmas tree and silver wrapped presents add the finishing touches. This room takes my breath away. Cozy and chic.

ornaments bowlOne of my favorite shabby chic Christmas decor ideas for Bethlehem Pa apartments: a bowl of ornaments. All those extras, the old ones, vintage balls, or ones that have lost their ends can be used for a bowl of Christmas. Use as a center piece or on the buffet table. I have a clear glass bowls of blue, gold, and silver ones on my fridge top. Looks smashing.

Christmas Mantles

I love decorating the fireplace mantle for Christmas. I usually do it before I even put up the tree, usually on Thanksgiving weekend after all the pumpkin decor is taken down.  The following are some samples of beautiful mantle decorating ideas.  Above pic via QwickStep
