You’ve got the tree decorated, and know what themes you’ll be using throughout the rest of your home.
But there’s just something missing, and you’re not sure what it is. Even after you’ve got the tree completely decorated and most of the other Christmas decorations up, it just seems like you could do a little something more.
Here are 10 of our favorite Christmas decor ideas and additions that can be used to lighten any scene with a little more Christmas magic.
Add a Christmas Garland to the Mantle
There are a million ways to add a Christmas garland to your home, but one of the most simple and impactful uses to add one to the mantle and bring in accent pieces that coordinate with your tree and room design aesthetic.
If you want to make your look really pop, add some twinkle lights, shatterproof ornaments, Christmas flowers and ribbon to it, that are aligned with the rest of your Christmas decorations.
Then, you can hold the garland in place either with a nutcracker or two or with weighted Christmas stocking hooks.
It’s simple and effective and one of the easiest ways to add a little extra color and light to your Christmas decorations.
The Wreath on the Front Door
Another easy and effective way to make use of Christmas greenery is by putting a Christmas wreath on your front door.
We love seeing the wreath decorated with Christmas ribbon, flowers, and ornaments that align with the rest of your theme. But our Norfolk Greenery wreaths can also serve as a delightful piece with a simple velvet bow.
You can also add smaller wreaths or the amazing look below to windows (where lights will also add warmth) or on walls that are big and have open space.
The Elf on the Shelf
The Elf on the Shelf is a beloved Christmas tradition that countless families around the world partake in each and every year.
The best part is that it’s so interactive, and a ton of fun for parents - you can get as creative as you want when you’re posing the elf each day or night. We offer plenty of Elf on the Shelf options and accessories; check them out here and then prepare to get creative with this cherished Christmas tradition.

Add Some Christmas Pillows to Your Seating

Christmas Water Globes
Christmas water globes are nice little accents you can use to spruce up basically any space that needs a little uplifting. They are great for countertops, shelves, desktops - and pretty much anywhere else that needs a little more Christmas charm!
Christmas Gnomes and Other Christmas Resin
Glass and resin Christmas gnomes are great for any Christmas decor theme that features gnomes and they can be placed around the home (along with other resin Christmas decorations) to add a little extra color and mischief! Get creative with some Christmas gnomes this season and see how the transformation impacts your home!
Hang Christmas Bells in a Doorway
Mistletoe is great, Christmas bells, which are bigger, brighter, and won’t fade from season to season - are so much better! Pick some out that align with the rest of the colors of your Christmas theme and hang them in doorways, arches, and other entryways!
Exterior Christmas Lights
Christmas lights on the windows and lining the driveway and exterior of your home are another easy way to add light and charm to your home. They add welcoming, warm light to the windows (although you could add cool light, too) and they’re extremely easy to install when you watch our Christmas decorating tutorials and use our Christmas lights finder tools to get the exact recommendations — simply put in your color scheme and feet of decorations needed – and our guide will create the cart for you!
Wall Art
Lastly, wall art can be an easy and effective way to transform a space, especially since the walls are generally left bare and sport a lot of negative space. You can turn that all around with some artfully chosen Christmas wall art, though!
