Home for the Holidays – My Cozy Christmas Family Room

My Cozy Christmas Family Room - how I'm creating a place to make memories this season and sharing for the Home for the Holidays Christmas Blog Hop

Simple, Welcoming, and most important – Cozy.

A home where memories are made this Holiday season.

That is my goal for my decor this year.

From the moment you walk through the door. A Cozy Christmas Family Room is all I want for this home.

While I’ve shown you spatterings of rooms decorated for the season the past few weeks, I’ve waited until today to reveal my tree and my family room in it’s entirety.  

So let’s start with my entryway.

Cozy Farmhouse Christmas Entryway - How I created a welcoming entry with old greenery and garland.

Since I revealed my Christmas Entryway earlier this week, then you may have seen some sneaky peaks of my room.

But what I didn’t show you was what you see when you walk in my door!

Squee!!! I just love my sparkly, snowflake tree!

Icicles, snowflakes, shiny baubles and curly garland paired with crystals and glass bulbs.

It’s the only slightly austere thing in my room, but it’s not about the fanciness.

It’s about the simplicity of color and sparkles it gives at night.

So for my family room, my hope is that you want to slip off your shoes, grab a blanket and a cup of cocoa and sit and chat while looking at the tree.

Since these pillows from Homegoods reminded me of snowflakes, I thought they would be a perfect pairing with my snowflake tree.

Since I wanted to create a warm cozy environment, I added battery operated LED lights to the Vintage bottles behind my couch that glow in the evening.

Earlier, I hung my DIY Fall ticking stripe bunting on my DIY Chalkboard. But I updated it for Christmas by simply removing the burlap leaves.

Aren’t these fishing weight glass ornaments the coolest?

Blue glass balls wrapped in twine, snuggled in a nest of greenery and wooden beads make me so happy!

Keeping with the cozy theme, my fireplace mantel is styled with a simple snowflake and warm lights.

I especially love to sit in my deconstructed chair next to my fireplace to relax this season.

Of course, you can see how I Christmas-fied my kitchen here.

Since this tree is particularly whimsical, I adorned the top of my Christmas Tree with a combo of poinsettia blooms, sparkly and snow covered sticks, and curly-q’s.

And, of course, my snowflake topper.

Without a doubt – I love this fun garland! It’s tinsel strap ribbon I found at Hobby Lobby. Not my normal garland, but I love how it curls down the tree whimsically.
