I’ve put together a list of 23 farmhouse Christmas decor ideas that will help you transform your home into a winter wonderland.
From rustic ornaments to cozy textiles, these ideas are sure to inspire your holiday decorating this year.
Rustic Christmas Tree
One of the focal points of any farmhouse Christmas decor is the tree. Opt for a rustic look by choosing a tree with a natural shape and decorating it with handmade ornaments, burlap ribbon, and wooden accents. Add some string lights and a few vintage-inspired decorations to complete the look.
Cozy Fireplace Mantel
Create a cozy atmosphere in your farmhouse this Christmas by decorating your fireplace mantel with greenery, candles, and stockings. Hang a garland made of pine branches and pinecones above the mantel and add some twinkle lights for an extra festive touch. Don’t forget to hang your stockings with care for Santa to fill on Christmas Eve.
Vintage Ornaments
Incorporate some vintage charm into your farmhouse Christmas decor by using antique ornaments. Look for glass ornaments in classic shapes like balls, icicles, and bells. You can also repurpose old Christmas cards or sheet music to create unique ornaments that add a nostalgic touch to your tree.
Plaid and Buffalo Check
Nothing says farmhouse Christmas like plaid and buffalo check patterns. Add these cozy prints to your decor with throw pillows, blankets, and table linens. You can also use plaid ribbon to tie around your tree or hang as garland around your home for a festive pop of color.
Galvanized Metal Accents
Give your farmhouse Christmas decor an industrial edge by incorporating galvanized metal accents. Use metal buckets, trays, and lanterns to hold candles, greenery, and ornaments. You can also hang metal signs with holiday greetings or inspirational quotes to add a touch of rustic charm to your home.
Fresh Greenery
Bring the outdoors inside with fresh greenery in your farmhouse decor. Use pine branches, cedar garland, and holly sprigs to create wreaths, swags, and centerpieces. You can also fill vases and baskets with greenery for an easy and affordable way to add a natural element to your holiday decor.
Farmhouse Kitchen Decor
Don’t forget to bring some Christmas cheer to your farmhouse kitchen. Hang a wreath made of herbs or berries on your pantry door and display a bowl of fresh fruit on your countertop. Add some holiday-themed dish towels and oven mitts for a festive touch that will make cooking and baking even more enjoyable.
DIY Advent Calendar
Get creative this Christmas by making your own farmhouse-style advent calendar. Use small muslin bags, paper envelopes, or mini buckets to hold treats or small gifts for each day leading up to Christmas. Hang them on a rustic ladder, twine, or tree branches for a charming display that the whole family will love.
Farmhouse Dining Table
Create a warm and inviting atmosphere for your holiday meals with a beautifully decorated farmhouse dining table. Use a burlap or linen table runner as a base and add candles, greenery, and simple tableware. You can also incorporate natural elements like pinecones, acorns, and berries for a rustic touch.
Handmade Stockings
Add a personal touch to your farmhouse Christmas decor by making handmade stockings for your family. Use burlap, flannel, or knit fabrics in classic colors like red, green, and white. Embellish them with lace, buttons, or embroidery for a cozy and charming addition to your holiday mantel.
Farmhouse Front Porch
Welcome guests to your farmhouse this Christmas with a festive front porch display. Hang a wreath on your front door and flank it with lanterns or potted evergreens. Add a rustic bench or rocking chair with plaid pillows and a cozy throw for a charming spot to enjoy the holiday season.
Wooden Signs
Add some farmhouse flair to your Christmas decor with wooden signs that feature holiday greetings or festive quotes. Look for signs with distressed finishes, vintage lettering, or hand-painted designs. You can hang them on your walls, prop them on shelves, or display them on your mantel for a rustic touch.
Farmhouse Bedroom Decor
Transform your bedroom into a cozy retreat this Christmas with farmhouse-inspired decor. Add a plaid or knit throw blanket to your bed and swap out your pillows for ones in festive prints. Hang a wreath on your headboard or above your nightstand for a touch of holiday charm that will make bedtime even more cozy.
