Step 4: Decorate The Mantel
Choosing a central theme for your console table, tabletop, or mantle will help establish a sense of balance and harmony in your display. An anchor is commonly known as a statement piece. By positioning your anchor on the wall above your mantle, console table, or centrally on the surface, you will create a visual focal point that effectively "anchors" the space. Some examples include mirrors, festive signs, and Christmas canvas LED pictures, all available at Garry’s Garden Gallery. We have everything you need to craft your perfect inspired look. Select two matching items and position them on either side of your statement piece. Ensure that these items do not exceed the height of the statement piece. Visualize the statement piece as the peak of an invisible triangle resting on your table or mantle. Incorporating objects of different heights is the ideal method for enhancing visual appeal. Consider using vases, candles, tabletop trees, reindeer, and lanterns, all of which can be found at Garry's Garden Gallery. Incorporating natural elements is a fantastic way to create a festive atmosphere in your display. Lively green garlands, wreaths, pinecones, leaves, and berries serve as wonderful natural decorations. Garlands can be utilized in nearly every part of your home during the holiday season, so don’t forget to enhance your console table with them as well. This is an ideal method to infuse a natural touch into your decor, and the rich green hue is a true celebration of Christmas There’s a golden rule in decorating: always use odd numbers (like 3, 5, etc.) when arranging items. This approach not only attracts the eye but also enhances the overall appeal and memorability of your display. Since a console table or mantel is typically a slim surface, over-decorating can lead to a cluttered and chaotic appearance.
Step 5: Elegant Holiday Tablescaping
Make your dining table as memorable as the menu with tablescaping! It’s the perfect way to elevate your dinner and show your guests you care. Choose a theme that you love from glitzy glitter to rustic and warm. We have all that you need to create your inspired look. Watch our video blog here for inspiration
Step 6: All of the other Surfaces are waiting to shine!
Enhance your home with decorations in every corner! Add cozy pillows to your couch and chairs, hang Christmas canvas LED art throughout the rooms, and drape twinkling lights for a magical touch. Adorn your kitchen cabinets with mini Christmas wreaths tied with festive ribbons. Wrap some empty boxes in cheerful wrapping paper and display them on a table or beside the Christmas tree. Consider adding greenery or bows to your light fixtures as well. Don’t forget, a visit to Garry’s Garden Gallery Christmas wonderland is sure to spark your creativity!
