9 Minimal Christmas Decor Finds on Etsy!
How do you like decorate for the holidays? Do you get it done all at once or sort of ease into things? For me, I like to introduce pieces bit by bit leading up to the big day. Otherwise, it’s too overwhelming! I also love for decor to feel meaningful and a natural part of the home. This means a lot of wood, handmade items, and neutral colors. I usually shy away from mass produced decor or only purchase items that will stand the test of time. This year, I teamed up with the folks at Etsy to showcase some of my very favorite minimal Christmas decor ideas!
Neutral Holiday Decor
Not only do I like holiday decor that feels natural and authentic. I typically look for Christmas decor that can stay up throughout the winter season. Yep, you’ll still find bits of greenery well into January over here. I also like decor that feels like it’s part of the existing home rather than add-on.
Well, Etsy is a great place to find pieces that check these boxes. I have a whole round up of my Favorite Etsy Decor Shops. Plus, I love supporting small businesses when I can! Read below for my list of favorites plus ideas on how I’d use each one.
Christmas Decor Etsy Sources
- Modern Winter Wreath – I would probably keep this out well into the new year!
- Hunter Green Throw Pillow – I love a throw pillow that doesn’t feel too holiday specific (less to store!)
- Modern Advent Calendar – Neutral Christmas Decor that can be reused each year makes it feel extra meaningful
- Joy Christmas Sign – this sign also comes in “peace” and “merry”
- Mistletoe Dinner Napkins – lovely winter print also available in placemats, runners, and towels
- Neutral Tree Art Print – This lovely art print would be amazing year round in a kids room or as part of a modern gallery wall
- Modern Wood Trees – so simple and Scandinavian! These handmade trees feel so classy and easy to incorporate into any space
- Merry & Bright Christmas Mug – I bet hot cocoa tastes better in this coffee cup!
- Personalized Neutral Linen Stockings so charming and available in different colors with a personalized little tag
Holiday Decor Styling Ideas
This tiny little metal sign, made in Tennessee, is also available in different words like “hope” and “peace.” There are so many ways to use this decor. I’d likely place it on top of a stack of books on a side table or bookshelf. A series of them would also be cute as individual plate settings.
While the boho ceramic ornaments are no longer available, these Minimalist Ornaments are pretty lovely and available in simple designs and muted colors. I haven’t tried it, but I’d be tempted to get crafty and see what I could create with some white clay and simple shapes. Besides the obvious of hanging on the tree, I like to use ornaments as gift toppers and little wall hangings.
I love a good asymmetrical wreath and this year round Eucalyptus Wreath is such a beauty! I love the mix of winter greenery and dried grasses. It would work well before Christmas and well after the new year. I often hang simple wreaths like these inside on vertical walls. It’s an unexpected but lovely way to add some greenery.
