2020 Christmas Home Tour

Christmas, Home Tour

It’s one of my favorite days of the year! Christmas home tour day! This year, I had high hopes of decorating and photographing even more spaces, but then real life happened and I didn’t get as much done as I would have liked. However, I’m excited to share the spaces I have finished so far! Welcome to my 2020 Christmas home tour!

This post contains affiliate links for your shopping convenience. You can read my full disclosure policy here.

Welcome to our home! After each room tour, I’ll share the sources for all items in the room. If there’s any I missed, leave a comment and I’ll be sure to get back to you!

Our entryway looks fairly similar to how it did in our fall home tour. However, it’s now filled with faux evergreens and lots of fairy lights!

An entryway with white walls, blue gray front door, and plaid rug, decorated for Christmas with garland on the staircase and a wreath on the door.

I carried the garland all the way up, and it’s all so pretty when it’s lit up at night!

The garland I used is the same as last year. It was an end-of-season purchase from Studio McGee a year or two back, and unfortunately no longer available but this garland I found has a similar vibe. This year I added these warm white fairy lights and some pretty navy blue velvet ribbon!

CHRISTMAS ENTRYWAY SOURCES: Tall Mirror | White Raffia Cabinet | Lantern Pendant Light | ‘It Is Well’ Canvas Art | Faux Juniper Tree | Wood Bead Garland | White Tray | Plaid Rug | Wreath | Similar Garland | Velvet Ribbon | Fairy Lights | Door Color: Benjamin Moore Water’s Edge

As we continue down the hallway into our main living area, I kept things fairly simple.

I used our console table as the setup for my Nativity Set. It’s been so fun to gradually collect pieces over the last few years to add to it. I still have a ways to go, but I always look forward to setting it up each year!

Oh, and don’t mind the random bathroom vanity peeking out from the railing upstairs 😉

CHRISTMAS ENTRYWAY HALLWAY SOURCES: Bench | Velvet Pillow | Plaid Pillow – Old from Williams Sonoma | ‘O Come Let Us Adore Him’ print version | Raffia Console Table | Striped Ottoman Cubes | Seagrass Lamp | Paint Dipped Vase | Nativity Set | Creche | Star Backdrop | Woven Chain Link | Similar Wood Bowl | Similar Mirror | Swing Arm Sconce Lights

Moving down the hallway into our many living space, I kept our kitchen fairly simple. I added this new runner rug and love the color and pattern for the winter months!

Our 2020 Christmas home tour featuring our kitchen with a blue island, ivory and black runner rug, basket pendant lights, and a wreath on the window.

These giant flameless candles were another addition and I love how life-like they are at night! They’re made of real wax, and the little faux flames move and flicker when they’re turned on at night. I added the optional remote, which makes them much easier to operate given how heavy they are.

Since the bulk of this side of our house faces south (with windows also on the east and west), it’s crazy just how much the natural light changes in here during the winter months. With the sun lower in the sky, the sun looks so much warmer now, particularly in the late afternoons. It almost casts a warm orange glow on everything.

And here’s a view I haven’t shown in awhile. But guess what – I’m finally sharing our dining room in this tour too! It was drowning in sunlight in this image below, so I’ll share some better images in a minute.

CHRISTMAS KITCHEN SOURCES: Counter Stools | Basket Pendant Lights  | Runner Rug | Vase | Natural Wood Serving Board | White Serving Board | Sunday Suppers Cookbook | Similar Recipe Book Stand | Flameless Candles | Wreath – old from Studio McGee | Island Paint Color: Benjamin Moore Providence Blue

Let’s first head into the living room. I’m so happy I decided to go with traditional Christmas colors and plaid this year! The little pops of red just make everything feel so much more cheerful!

A white living room decorated for Christmas with a Christmas tree, navy blue and red ornaments, garland on the mantel with ivory stockings, and Stewart plaid pillows.

These plaid & sherpa lumbar pillows are one of my favorite finds of the year! Not only are they a really nice size, the plaid weave on the front and the cozy sherpa on back are such a great combination!

A linen sofa with navy blue velvet pillow, plaid lumbar pillow, a black console cabinet, wood gallery wall frames, and a wood dough bowl filled with bright red ornaments and faux evergreens.

I’m so glad I finally ordered that black ceramic vase. It took a few months to arrive, but I love the contrast it provides in here!

These textured side-tie pillows on our spindle chairs kind of give the space a ski lodge effect!

On our mantel, I layered two different garlands. I’ve had the back one for as long as I can remember but added in this real touch garland (also here) this year and love it! Unfortunately, half of America must love it too, because it goes in and out of stock on a daily basis. If it give an error, I would just try again in a day or two and see if it’s back.

A Frame TV hanging over a Christmas mantel with ivory stockings and garland. You can also see a raffia coffee table, white spindle chairs and linen sofas with navy blue velvet and plaid pillows.

I chose to offset our pom pom stockings and chunky knit stockings on the mantel this year and I love how they look!

A Christmas mantel fireplace with green garland, twinkle lights, ivory woven stockings, rattan benches, and a linen sofa filled with navy blue velvet and plaid pillows.

I originally had the tree decorated with only white ornaments, but I ended up realizing it needed some color, and I basically just matched the plaid pillows.

I didn’t buy a single new ornament this year, so I basically made whatever I have work in each of the room with a tree! So happy I decided to do a “plaid” tree in here!

CHRISTMAS LIVING ROOM SOURCES: Linen Sofas | Spindle Chairs (similar here) | Gallery Wall Frames (similar here) | Lamps | Similar Black Cabinet | Wood Dough Bowl | Velvet Pillows | Plaid & Sherpa Lumbar Pillow | Textured Side-Tie Pillows | Woven Stools | Coffee Table | Black Ceramic Vase | Similar Oversized Wood Chain | Large Woven Basket | Pom Stockings | Chunky Knit Stockings | Frame TV | Front Garland | Back Garland – old | Faux Christmas Tree | Woven Tree Collar | White & Gold Gift Boxes

Our dining room! Can you believe I haven’t shared a full image of the space with the cane chairs I ordered last Cyber Monday?! It wasn’t intentional, it just never felt “ready” to share. But, I obviously got over that today! I’m so excited about how it looks with my new “Fall On Your Knees” Canvas from Lindsay Letters!

A neutral dining room decorated for Christmas with large carol artwork, a wreath, faux Christmas tree, navy blue table runner, and cane dining chairs.

These faux cypress napkin rings are another favorite of the season! They look so cute paired with the windowpane plaid napkins.

I have the same faux Christmas tree in the dining room as I do in the living room. It’s fun to see them decorated two different ways! I actually had some navy blue ornaments on this one originally, but then I had to steal them for the living room 😉

CHRISTMAS DINING ROOM SOURCES: Dining Table | Cane Dining Chairs (look for less here) | Striped Rug | Linear Chandelier (look for less here) | Small Buffet Table | Mirror | Similar White Ceramic Vase | Windowpane Plaid Napkins | Faux Cypress Napkin Rings | Wood Chargers | Faux Christmas Tree | Capiz Star Topper (similar here) | Woven Tree Collar | “Fall On Your Knees” Canvas | Hutch Details | Velvet Table Runner – old from Pottery Barn

Now, let’s head upstairs!

I’m thrilled I decided to finally add a Christmas tree to our bedroom! And the plaid bedding couldn’t be more perfect – it’s even better in person. It’s the same material as the lumbar pillows in our living room and I love it so much!

I like to keep the top of our dresser fairly clean, but I added some leftover gold ornaments into this wood bowl and filled my favorite vase with these faux berry juniper branches.

As we approach evening, the gold picks and ornaments really make the tree glow!

CHRISTMAS BEDROOM SOURCES: Similar Upholstered Bed | Bead Chandelier | Cane Nightstands | Striped Curtains | Gold Curtain Rod |  Woven Bench | Jute Rug | Plaid Bedding | Velvet Pillows | Christmas Tree | White Rope Tree Collar | Dresser | Round Mirror | Similar Vase | Faux Berry Juniper Branch  | Cypress Candle | Wood Bowl | White Bone Beads | Wreath – old from Studio McGee | Ornaments & Picks – old from Hobby Lobby

Moving down the hallway is our den! I had run out of batteries at this point, so unfortunately you don’t get to see the mini Christmas trees all lit up 😉

A den with a board and batten wall painted Benjamin Moore Van Courtland Blue. There is a linen sectional, bamboo coffee table, wood tripod lamp and Christmas decorations like mini Christmas trees, and plaid pillows.

On the wall, I added my “Silent Night” Canvas and love how it looks paired with the black Stewart plaid pillows!

I had to push the table a lot closer to the sectional to get this next photo, but wanted to show you a slightly different angle of the space! When we use the room to watch a movie, rather than reading, I just move the trees to the opposite corner. We love how cozy it is in here!

CHRISTMAS DEN SOURCES: Linen Sectional | Coffee Table | Rug | Scallop Light Fixture | Roman Shades | “Silent Night” Canvas | Velvet Pillow | Pom Pillow (look for less here) | Plaid Pillow | Cozy Pom Throw | Mini Lit Christmas Trees | Wooden Links Object | Tripod Lamp | Wall Color: Benjamin Moore Van Courtland Blue

Thank you for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed this year’s Christmas home tour! I have a few more spaces I’d love to photograph in the coming weeks, so if I do, I’ll let you know and add them into this post.

      Thank you so much! The runner is an old one from Pottery Barn and unfortunately they no longer carry it or anything similar. Sorry!

    Hi Sarah – your house is BEAUTIFUL and so inspiring 🤗. I love ALL YOUR DECORATIONS! However I need your advice…we adopted two precious kitties (who we love beyond words). How does your sweeties do with all the decorations? Do they mellow with age? We just know that we will have to cut back on decorations this year and watch them like a hawk!😜

    Your home looks breathtaking.
    I love how your beautiful home only needs light holiday decor to feel festive. No need to smother it… it’s always executed perfectly by you. I’d do this look in a minute if my house could pull it off! I adore your style.

    Looks lovely. Is the sofa in your living room the same brand/style sofa in the room with the little tree. I know the living room is Pottery Barn

    Very pretty! If there is a silver lining to our COVID pandemic it would be having your home as a safe and cozy environment to be in during this unsettling time.

    Hello Sarah. I love all of the rooms but the dining room especially. Can you tell me how high you placed your light fixture above your table? I’m trying to place one and I think yours looks like just the perfect height.

    Thank you!

      December 14, 2020 at 10:45 am

      Thank you so much, Sally! I just measured and the base of our light fixture is 29.5″ above the top of our table. I hope that helps!

    Everything looks beautiful! I was wondering how you are liking your new cane dining chairs. Did you end up purchasing the ones from CB2 or the look-for-less version? I am curious if they are easy to clean and kid friendly?

    Reply
    • Sarah says

      January 11, 2021 at 10:00 am

      Sorry! I just saw this message. Ours are the CB2 version but no longer available. I’m hoping they can bring them back once all the shipping delays are over. We don’t use our dining room a ton (we mostly eat on our kitchen counter stools), but so far we’ve been happy with them! The cane may make me a little nervous with kids (depending on how old they are), but overall we’re very happy with the quality!
