Simple Ways To Dress Up Your Entryway For Christmas

Today I’m beginning my Christmas 2021 home tour by sharing my 2021 Christmas Entryway! One of my readers suggested I start at my entryway and work room-by-room, like you were walking through my home, so that is how I’m going to be sharing my home dressed up for holiday this year!

I’ll be sharing it all over the next week, so make sure to check back! You can also subscribe to my email list at the bottom of the page to receive new blog posts in your email inbox!

Let’s get to my holiday entryway decor!

how to dress up your entryway for Christmas:

1. add greenery

Add faux or real evergreen stems to an oversized vase or pot on top of a console table. I’m using faux stems, because I don’t have the real thing to cut from my yard. Faux has come a LONG way though, and are a great option. My stems are several years old, but these similar Stems are currently in-stock!

2. add ceramic trees

One of the easiest ways to add Christmas to a space is by topping a few books with Ceramic Trees. You could also use wood, brass or faux tabletop trees as well! I have a bunch of my favorites saved in my Christmas Shop.

3. add festive pillows

Another simple way to add Christmas decor to your entryway is by adding a few Christmas pillows to a basket or two. I kept it subtle by adding this Plaid Lumbar to one basket and this Linen Moss Pillow to the other.

4. add candles

The Candle I added to the stool smells SO good, even without burning it. It is seriously my favorite candle this year!

I also added this Candle to my glass hurricane candleholder, which I’m loving. My hurricane candleholder is several years old, but this Option is very similar in size.

5. add a wood garland or ornaments

This year I added a Wood Garland to my tabletop bowl. You could add ornaments if you would rather! Love this Bowl filled with these Ornaments. My concrete bowl is older, but this Bowl is similar.

6. add decor in unexpected places

Think outside the box! On my coat hook rack, (could also use hooks,) I hung bells, a small wreath, a winter scarf & my leather tote. Functional decor, like a bag and scarf, mixed in with a few Christmas decor pieces, adds just the right amount of Christmas cheer to an an entryway. My wreath & bells are from last year, but loving this Wreath & these Bells for a similar look. My Scarf & Bag are both in-stock.
