This holiday season, opt for a minimalistic and understated festive look. You can achieve your desired Christmas ambiance with a few elements rather than choking the space with consumerism. After all, minimalist Christmas decorations are all about simplicity and sophistication. You can add a lot of greenery, minimal décor pieces, and handmade items to bring joy and the holiday spirit into your home, while keeping the space breathable and uncluttered. We have made a list of a few minimalist Christmas decorations that’ll motivate you to embrace the art of minimalism.
Christmas Tree With Only Lights
Don’t overburden your Christmas tree with fancy and flashy ornaments. Instead, keep it simple with gorgeous fairy lights and a tree skirt. This is alone enough to make the room feel inviting, cozy, and magical.
Minimalist Christmas Tabletop Trees
You don’t need to throw everything on your mantel to create an eye-catching display. Add a set of metal conical trees, glittery branch trees to achieve your desired seasonal ambiance, which is minimal and magical.
Table Garland With Fresh Greenery
Table garland is a fancy affair for a maximalist. But you don’t need to be that person. You can turn to nature to create a natural and fresh garland. After all, a table garland made using fresh greenery is a forever classic.
Minimalistic Branch Christmas Tree
Forget about a grandiose Christmas tree and opt for this minimalistic alternative using branches instead. Just find a pretty vase with a metallic accent, or paint it if it looks too bland, then paint the branches. Add a handful of ornaments to achieve a simple, splendid, and minimalistic Christmas look.
Hang Pinecones for a Cozy Bit
Scour your backyard for some pinecones and create a hanging pinecone garland to keep it natural and minimal. It’s an easy, cheap, and simple holiday decoration that will bring an element of fun and festivity to your entrance.
Simple Fireplace Mantel Décor
Mantels are the most decorated space in every holiday home. People have eclectic ways to add a fun, holiday charm to their fireplace mantel, some are quite extravagant. But you can keep it unpretentious and cozy with just a faux green garland, a string of micro LED lights, a few white pillar candles, and the stockings for a little Christmas cheer.
Fill a Bowl With Ornaments
Instead of those gaudy centerpieces, fill a bowl with ornaments, greenery, and flameless candles for an effective table display. This idea works on your entryway console, dinner table, mantel, or kitchen island. Not only does it take up less space, but it is easy to move if required. You can use ornaments in sparkling hues to add a pop of color.
Minimal Seasonal Prints
You don’t always have to go for red and green colors to make it look like Christmas. You can use minimal seasonal prints to bring the holiday spirit. When you display them on your console table and layer the pieces with fairy lights, a bit of greenery, and other decorative objects, they are enough to add a bit of merriment without cluttering the space.
Candles for Soft Glow
Whether minimalist or maximalist, candles can complement any décor style and setting. However, if you are opting for the minimalist Christmas decorations, then go for soft and neutral-toned candles, real or battery-operated. Combine them with other decorative objects and greenery to keep it immaculate, comfy, and illuminated.
Handmade Christmas Wreath
Instead of buying expensive and opulent wreaths and wall décor, create one at home with minimal supplies. No matter what type of wreath you are creating, you will fall in love with the handmade and understated look that still feels festive. You can decorate windows, walls, front door, or hang above your mantel for a clean, clutter-free, and captivating display.
