Mix metallics for a dose of holiday glamor. Gold and silver accents add glitz to this living room designed by Sarah Richardson, creating the perfect spot for a Christmas cocktail party.
Incorporate string lights for maximum coziness. Globe lights strung across a peg rail cozy up this bedroom for an affordable price and create the illusion of a starry night sky.

Make edible snow globes. This gingerbread village is as sweet to look at as it is to eat. Encased in sugar-filled jars to mimic snow, this creative vignette is guaranteed to keep your kitchen smelling like a bakery all through the holidays.

Make shortbread-inspired ornaments. Roll out porcelain clay and use cookie cutters and stamps to create keepsake ornaments that double as placecards. Punch a hole at the top of each ornament using a plastic straw and let them dry overnight on a baking tray. Once dry, apply a thin coat of white paint over top of the stamped ornaments using a foam roller, and thread pieces of ribbon through the holes.
Add plush pieces to warm up a white space. Bring a wintry feel to a white bedroom with layers of texture.

Be inspired by what’s outside your window. If the weather cooperates, there’s nothing like a fresh dusting of snow to create the ultimate Christmas curb appeal.
