cozy christmas kitchen decor ideas

Christmas is coming, it’s high time to finish off your decor or add some polishing touches if you haven’t done it yet. Today we are discussing Christmas kitchen decor and ways to pull it off in a stylish way.

Kitchens are practical and functional spaces that aren’t supposed to include much decor. But you may still incorporate some or even much if you want so. There are pendant and wall decorations, smaller Christmas trees, various kinds of displays and lights plus Christmas-themed food and drink stations. Let’s take a look at some ideas.

Stations

First of all, go for the most evident thing for decor that will be practical at the same time. Organize a cool hot cocoa, chocolate and coffee station – depending on what you prefer. Use your kitchen island, cabinet, buffet or some other furniture item. Decorate your station with signs, garlands, lights, buntings, various figurines. Serve cocoa or chocolate, coffee, candy canes, cookies and candies plus other stuff you like for holidays. Make everyday things part of decor: rock penguin and Santa mugs, use sugar pots and tea pots with traditional stripes and star prints.

Displays

Create cool festive displays using trays, dough bowls, porcelain bowls, vintage sugar pots and cupcake stands as bases. Fill them all with various Christmas stuff: pinecones, cinnamon, acorns, and dried fruit, with ornaments and evergreens and much other stuff you want, add lights. Such displays can be placed on a kitchen island, windowsills, tables and used as centerpieces. What’s cool about such displays – you may DIY all of them easily just filling bowls with stuff and get a cool decoration.
