The kitchen is often referred to as the heart of the home, and it really gets into the holiday spirit at this time of year. From showcasing a festive Christmas dinner set to creating an impromptu hot cocoa bar, these ideas are sure to enliven the space while keeping it useable for meal prep.
For a fun twist on an advent calendar, hang garland across your range hood (and add some to the ceiling) and fill small containers labeled with each day of the month with treats, like a chocolate bar or gingerbread cookie. This easy idea from Jim Dove is sure to become a family tradition.
Use the tops of your cabinets for festive decor, too, such as a simple tree, mini Christmas trees, and lanterns. The stacked display makes a beautiful statement and works well with the existing wood of this kitchen from Construction2Style(opens in new tab).
Natural greenery, such as freeflowing amaryllis, poinsettias, and birch bark branches, can be used for a variety of purposes in your holiday kitchen. Hang garlands from your windows or over open shelving, add small wreaths to cabinet doors, or incorporate organic textures like pinecones and cranberries in your decorating.
Plaid or tartan prints bring a winter and Christmas feel to any space, but they’re especially fitting in the kitchen, where teatowels, oven gloves, aprons, seat cushions, and runner fabrics can all be swapped out for seasonal designs. Mixing in some metallic elements, like silver and pewter antique pieces and copper pots and pans, helps bring the look together.
