Get in The Festive Mood with The Ultimate Christmas Living Room Ideas to Inspire Your Decor

Of all the rooms in a house, the living room is often the heart of the Christmas festivities. Most people are currently pulling their old decorations out of the loft and getting ready to put them up again for another year. However, some people are actively looking to try something different this time round. Why not?

Here are our best suggestions to inspire your Christmas décor this year.

Mantel-scaping

Over the years, the fireplace has become a focal point for Christmas decorations in many living rooms. There is so much that you can do to use your fireplace and create that warm festive feeling. Hanging foliage, baubles, stockings, and other decorations are fantastic ways to do so. You can stick to your colour scheme in doing so and create a well-executed Christmassy look. Candles also look fantastic and festive in this part of your living room, especially alongside other decorations.

Our Ingrid 2 Seater Sofa would be ideal to layer up with warm and cosy throws, blankets and cushions to really bring the festive mood.

Dress your sofa

Changing the accessories on your sofa at Christmas will make a big difference. This doesn’t have to be blankets and pillows covered in pictures of Rudolph and Santa though! Simply adding accessories with winter tones will add festive spirit to the room. Knitted cushions, throws and soft blankets all provide a subtle nod to the festive season. Honestly, don’t hold back with the soft and comfortable accessories. This time of year is all about feeling warm, cosy and relaxed.

Go maximalist!

There are hundreds of styles to decorate your living room for Christmas and it all comes down to personal taste. However, for many people, the maximalist approach is the only one that truly displays Christmas spirit in all its glory. The best way to do this is through the traditional Christmas colours. Nothing says Christmas more emphatically than a deep red and dark green theme across your tree and living room. Doing so embraces warmth and will make your living room feel inviting and joyful. After all, that is what Christmas is all about! Don’t be afraid to add touches of gold in your display as it will complement the green tones perfectly.
