Trending Christmas bedroom décor ideas for a festive bedroom

This year is all about making our homes into festive displays that inspire joy, warmth, togetherness and family traditions. Hence, more people are extending their Christmas décor to the bedrooms, turning their sleeping spaces into cosy, festive sanctuaries.

We have gathered our favourite Christmas bedroom décor ideas and trends for this season - from a bedroom Christmas tree to a DIY bed wreath.

1. Dress the bed

The easiest way to a festive bedroom is to start with the focal point of the room – the bed. Choose bedding with Christmas patterns from candy canes to cheery elves. If you want to steer clear from novelty prints and opt for something chic and subtle instead, bring festive spirit with the colour scheme instead. Green, red and white colours are timeless, rustic favourites, while silver is expected to be a fan favourite this year. The cooling, muted tones of silver will bring a festive, winter feel to your bedroom – without the freezing temperatures. To add more warmth, couple classic gold with silver tones.

Decadent throws and festive cushions are also a Christmas bedroom décor must-have!

2. Dress the headboard (or the wall behind your bed)

If you have a headboard, use it as your blank canvas for Christmas decorations! Alternatively, decorate the wall behind your bed.

Natural foliage in particular is a big trend this year. A Christmas garland draped around your headboard, or a bed wreath attached to the wall (or headboard) will add instant magic and warmth to your festive bedroom. For an extra touch of green, add a vase of green foliage on your bedside table.

3. A bedroom Christmas tree

Are you a one-tree wonder? Maybe this year we can convince you to consider a bedroom Christmas tree, too!

Few things say ‘Christmas’ as loud and clear as a Christmas tree. The design options and sizes are endless - a Christmas tree is the perfect way to add your personal style.

LED twig Christmas trees are popular, simple and effective in bringing festive charm – ideal for modern, minimalist interior décor.

If space is of issue, you’re in luck as asymmetrical, sparse trees are a growing trend this season. And of course, you can decide whether to keep your tree decorations sparse too or load your tree with traditional, unique decorations!

4. Bring warmth and cosiness with light

If your Christmas bedroom décor had to be limited to one thing, fairy lights would be your best bet! Draped around headboards, four-poster beds, windows or door frames, fairy lights bring warmth, cosiness, and a festive feel like no other.

Festive candle arrangements achieve the same purpose. Against the backdrop of a dark winter’s night, candle arrangements bring nostalgia and mood. Join your candles with brass candlesticks for added Christmas bliss. Choosing scented candles, like cinnamon, vanilla and gingerbread, will give all your senses the Christmas experience.

5. Don’t forget the finishing touches

Summon the Christmas spirit by adding pockets of ornaments around the bedroom:

Accessorise your windows with hanging decorations, window stickers, garlands, or wreaths.

Capiz shells with their pearl-like shimmer have captured hearts this year and make for ideal Christmas hanging decorations.

Making your own paper snowflakes or chains are sustainable and affordable ways to bring festive joy.
