Natural Christmas decorations bring happy hygge vibes and classic winter wonderland feelings to your home while being kinder to the planet. It’s a great idea to go on a nature walk, or even look in your own backyard, to find inspiration for your festive decorating. Things like sticks, pine cones and citrus fruit can all be transformed into beautiful nature inspired decorations. Plus, they’re cheap and easy to DIY.
A natural wreath adorned with evergreens, berries and pinecones can instantly transform your home. It’s also a simple way to create a festive table centerpiece. To add a little sparkle, try decorating the wreath with glitter. Or try a more rustic wreath made from branches tied together and then embellished with sprigs of holly, eucalyptus or other greenery.
Greenery looks festive draped over mantelpieces and stair railings, especially when the leaves are fresh and bright with the winter sunshine. Wrapping a plain white candle in boxwood, eucalyptus or another easy-to-find greenery and then tying with a ribbon is an instant festive decoration. You can also dress up a plain glass vase with greenery, or create a lantern-style luminaria from an old jar by filling it with water and adding a battery-operated flameless candle.
