Good morning! Today I’m sharing my 2025 Christmas home tour and how I brought some of my 2025 Christmas Design boards to life. Admittedly, I ran a bit short on time with this one. It always feels like there will be plenty of time to get things decorated and photographed, and then suddenly we’re leaving to visit family and we’re almost halfway through December. And while I didn’t get every space decorated or photographed that I had hoped to, I figured I had better share what I have so far, or it may never happen!

You’ll notice pretty quickly when you step inside our home that the main color I focused on this year was navy blue. I was definitely inspired by the Ralph Lauren Christmas decor aesthetic which, to me, is really just traditional, classic plaid decor at its best!
I’ve used this same garland for years and years now and it still works great. I basically layer a real-touch garland and a cedar garland (old from McGee & Co.) to give it a little more dimension.
Here’s a closer look at how I styled the console table. I used a lot of velvet ribbon again this year. Basically, everything in sight got a bow on it 😉
CHRISTMAS ENTRYWAY SOURCES: Real-Touch Garland | Cedar Garland | Console Table | Lamp | Navy Blue Velvet Ribbon | Ornament Wreath | Rattan Box | Small Ginger Jar Vase | “Saints of Old Florida” | “Surf Like A Girl” | “Ralph Lauren: In His Own Fashion” | Ceramic Vase | Greenery Stems | Red Berry Stems
Moving down the hallway into our kitchen, I kept things very simple, per usual. I didn’t even change out the rug! But I did add a bowl full of ornaments, a wreath, a plaid hand towel and swapped out the vase with some seasonal greenery, berries, and pre-lit birch stems!
This side door is the only entrance we really use in our house, so I like to keep it as clutter-free as possible!
I used the same wreath I’ve used since we’ve lived here, but this year I added this fun star & bell wreath charm in addition to the velvet ribbon.
CHRISTMAS KITCHEN SOURCES: Woven Chandeliers (look for less options here) | Swivel Counter Stools | Faux Soft Cedar Wreath | Star & Bell Wreath Charm | Navy Blue Velvet Ribbon | Faucet | Pot Filler | Salt & Pepper Mills | Cookbook Holder | Striped Rug | Cabinet Knobs | Cabinet Bin Pulls | Vase | Faux Real-Touch Greenery | Berry Stems | Ornaments | Footed Bowl
From there we head into our living room. This is where we spend most of our time in the evenings so I focused more on the nighttime glow in here! Unfortunately, that isn’t always as easy to photograph in the daytime. First up, I swapped out our Frame TV art for this “Emmanuel“ option. I love that when you buy the file it comes with a bunch of color options you can rotate.
Fun fact: I had originally set up a different Christmas tree earlier in the season. But, when my friend Katie was giving away her viral 9′ Duchess Christmas tree, I snagged it from her! Although the lights are a bit cooler than I prefer, those micro lights are so stunning at night! I definitely wasn’t going for perfection with the tree decor. I basically just used some orb ornaments, my jingle bell ornaments from last year, and then just tied a bow everywhere else.
Once I found these navy blue tartan plaid pillow covers, I planned my entire scheme for the year around them! The quality is excellent and they also come in red and white versions.
I like to still keep quite a few of our coastal pieces out, so to dress up this oversized clam shell (which is actually a wine server), I filled it with these tartan plaid ornaments. I also used two strands of this garland over the top of the table (love that this garland lies relatively flat and stays in place).
I’m just really loving how the navy looks this year! I had taken a break from it for several years but now I’ve got the itch again! The good news is Kurtis likely wants his future office painted entirely in navy (walls and ceiling) so I’ll be able to get my fill there.
Below, you can kind of see a peek of the throw blankets that match the pillows. I also added this hurricane candle holder to the coffee table and filled it with a flameless candle that is on a timer! It creates the prettiest glow at night!
And here’s the view looking back to the kitchen and entryway.
CHRISTMAS LIVING ROOM SOURCES: Woven Shades (Bonaire Flaxen) | Sofas (read my full review here) | Chairs | Coffee Table | Indoor/Outdoor Striped Rug | Frame TV | “Emmanuel” Frame TV Art | Linen Pillow Covers | Plaid Pillow Covers | Plaid Throw Blanket | Vase | Faux Juniper & Berry Bundle | Hurricane Candle Holder | Flameless Candle | “Ralph Lauren: A Way of Living” Coffee Table Book “ | “Louis Vuitton” Coffee Table Book | Lamps | Rope Sofa Table | Oversized Clam Shell | Tartan Plaid Ornaments | Faux Garland | Christmas Tree | Navy Blue Velvet Ribbon | Christmas Tree Collar | Navy Blue Velvet Ornaments (smaller size here) | Jingle Bell Ornaments
Moving upstairs, I actually used the same plaid bedding as last year, but this time in the white colorway rather than red. I’ve owned this white bedding for at least five years and still love it so much! I think in this particular space though, I prefer the red that I used in last year’s tour!
And here is the view from the striped bathroom – always a favorite!
CHRISTMAS BEDROOM SOURCES: Upholstered Bed (look-for-less option here) | Nightstands | Chandelier | Rug | Real-Touch Wreath | Navy Blue Velvet Ribbon | Stewart Plaid Duvet Cover & Euro Shams | Velvet Throw Pillow Covers | Lamps | Vase | Faux Cedar, Berry & Pinecone Stems | Bench
In the bathroom, I tied simple velvet bows to the sconces and then swapped out the greenery for this mix that includes berries and faux pinecones.
CHRISTMAS BATHROOM SOURCES: Scalloped Mirror | Sconces | Navy Blue Velvet Ribbon | Faux Cedar, Berry & Pinecone Stems | Cane Wrapped Vase | Cabinet Knobs | Striped Wallpaper | Hand Towel | Bath Mat | Raffia Bathroom Accessories | Hand Soap | Paint Color: similar to Benjamin Moore Santorini Blue
And lastly, our guest bedroom! I shared a peek a few weeks ago when I swapped out the bedding but here is how it all came together.
I struggle styling a duvet by myself and Kurtis had already left for Omaha when I took these photos. It needs some help but here ya have it! 😉
I still love this seashell mirror that I found at a local consignment shop. I have aspirations to make my own some day!
I’ll never fall out of love with that palm wallpaper! It’s such a good one and that little room is one of my favorites in our house!
One final look at the dresser! I used two extra strands of this garland to drape over the top and really love the look – and it couldn’t be easier.
CHRISTMAS GUEST BEDROOM SOURCES: Bed | Wreath | Velvet Ribbon | Similar Nightstand | Lamp | Rug | Wicker Chandelier | Linen Gingham Duvet Cover Set | Velvet Pillow Covers | Dresser | Seashell Mirror | Faux Evergreen Stems | Vase: old from Pottery Barn | Wicker Christmas Trees (look for less here) | “Made For Living” | “Travel Home” | “Surf Shack” | Real-Touch Garland | Palm Wallpaper
That wraps up this year’s Christmas home tour! I hope you enjoyed it! I can’t believe by next year we’ll be fully moved into our new home and a whole new world of decorating will open up!
