Bring Home The Holidays With IKEA
1. Add Shine To Your Table
Give your dining room some subtle sparkle with timeless brass accents, twinkling tealights, and elegant dinnerware. Matte black flatware is a beautiful contrast to all that shine. Plus, don’t forget to set the tone by playing classic tunes from your Wi-Fi speaker.
2. Let Every Room Play Host
Move the party from the dining table to the living room where guests can still mingle with their appetizers and beverages. In smaller spaces, a curvy stool doubles as seating and a spot to set down your cocktail. And don’t forget to stock up on wine glasses and champagne flutes, which will ensure that there’s enough to go around.
3. Create A Cozy Corner
Layer your sofa with sheepskins, textured blankets and a plethora of cushions to encourage lounging. Don’t be surprised if it turns into an inviting spot for guests to lay their heads for the night.
4. Set the Scene
The festive mood isn’t complete without ambient candlelight. Place a few candles in different shapes and sizes throughout your home.
Sustainability tip: Reuse the votive as a tealight holder after the wax melts.
7. Bring Whimsy To Every Room
Holiday decorating isn’t just about sparkly lights and a tree. Add a quirky lamp to a shelf or get into the holiday spirit by placing vases of holly and pine around a room. Mugs and dinnerware in a pastel hue are great for serving up festive cookies and hot cocoa. Get all your dining, decorating and cooking essentials—from spatulas and mixing bowls to oven mitts — at IKEA.
8. Get Creative With Your Décor
Get the kids involved and design your own winter wonderland terrarium. When you’re done, keep the jar. Use it for storing ginger snap cookies or candy, to extra ribbons and wrapping.
