AN ELEGANT CHRISTMAS ENTRYWAY FILLED WITH TIMELESS SOPHISTICATION

Welcome to our Christmas entryway, where you’re warmly welcomed with festive layers of beautiful, holiday touches that are elegant, chic and sophisticated. There’s something so special about welcoming the Christmas season into our home with beautiful, traditional holiday decor. This year, our Christmas entryway is all about timeless elegance – lush greenery with layers of gold, touches of beautiful color and pattern and decorative details that speak beautifully to the season. If you saw our nostalgic Christmas tree, it was all about taking a step back in time and creating a Christmas storybook feeling. You’ll notice some of the same elements in here, as well as throughout our home, creating a cohesive look that’s layered and collected with a nod to an old-world feeling I wanted to capture this season. I hope you love it an are inspired!

CLASSIC CHRISTMAS GREENERY AND ELEGANT DETAILS

When decorating our entryway, I like to keep the styling simple with most of the focus on our console table. Our gold mirror is a substantial, oversized piece that’s large in scale, so dressing it up for the holidays makes a truly beautiful statement.

This year, I bought two six-foot Norfolk pine garlands – they have such a simple, yet elegant look. I layered them with magnolia picks – an elegant, traditional detail, gold magnolia picks and gold berry picks to create a classic and sophisticated look that’s elevated and chic.

Adding florals, picks, ornaments, ribbon – anything you like is such an easy way to elevate your greenery and make a beautiful holiday statement.

We hung this simple Norfolk pine wreath on the mirror, another new purchase that I love. I treated it with a similar look as the garland – I added gold leaf picks and tied with the same gorgeous red embroidered ribbon you’ll find on our Christmas tree and throughout our holiday home. The ribbon adds pattern and contrast to the greenery and the shimmer of the gold leaves is so gorgeous!

I’ve kept the styling refined and somewhat understated in our Christmas entryway, layering in beautiful textures and rich details for a sophisticated holiday look.

SIMPLE ELEGANT STYLING ON OUR CONSOLE TABLE

On our console table, my oversized brown white ginger jar (which you’ve seen in our home since this past summer) takes center stage, flanked by layered gold candleholders and hurricanes in varying heights.

You know how much I love ginger jars and anything with a chinoiserie touch. This jar is stunning – a timeless, classic piece that will never go out of style. I dressed it up with a simple bow using my green velvet ribbon – a pretty detail you’ll find on repeat in our home for the holidays.

I always love using symmetry in my decorating as well – it’s one of the easiest ways to create a sophisticated, elevated look and it always works, every single time. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – when in doubt, use symmetry!

The soft glow of candlelight paired with the twinkling lights woven through the greenery creates the most beautiful ambiance in the evenings.

The shelves underneath are very simple – a crystal bowl filled with ornaments on the middle shelf and a silver tray with a few ornaments and greenery sprigs below. Easy, no-fuss decorating that adds the perfect amount of color, pattern, sparkle and shine.

It’s just enough festive detailing without making our space feel too cluttered, busy or overdecorated.

SIMPLE CHRISTMAS TOUCHES THROUGHOUT OUR ENTRYWAY

This area outside our laundry room acts as a transition space, and I like to tie in the decorating here to our entryway. I love incorporating little details that tell a story, especially at Christmas.

These cute Christmas village prints bring a charming feel to the space, reminiscent of a beautiful European village during the holidays.

Our blue and white vases that flank the front door, are filled with frosted red berries – another favorite detail, finished with the same beautiful green bows. I often use a lot of ribbon throughout our Christmas home to bring in color, texture and a little extra elegance – and if you know me, you know how much I love bows! It’s such an easy styling trick that makes everything feel special and thoughtfully finished.

Our chairs are layered with rich red pashmina scarves and my elegant pillows from last summer, while a small stack of gift boxes (borrowed from under our Christmas tree!) tied with more green velvet ribbon, adds another festive layer – simple ways to bring in seasonal elements and color.

I love how our Christmas entryway came together this year. From the greenery layered with gold touches to the warm glow of the lights and candles, to the layers of holiday color with our ribbon, art, ornaments, scarves and berries – each detail brings a little Christmas magic to this space.

I hope you’re inspired by our Christmas entryway, thank you for being here! I’ll be sharing more Christmas decorating soon! xo
