]Are you looking for a simple yet elegant way to decorate your kitchen for Christmas? Blue is a lovely and calming color to incorporate into your holiday decor. From classic navy and baby blue to icy hues and pastels, there are plenty of options for creating a beautiful blue Christmas kitchen
Hang twinkling lights around the windows and counters and put small ornaments on the shelves. Use seasonal kitchen towels and tablecloths to add a pop of color. If you have a kitchen island, add a centerpiece with a festive holiday floral arrangement. Add a few pinecones, a Christmas Village, and a festive wreath to the walls.
The inspiration for my entire theme this year is the gauzy French blue ribbon you’ll see here and there. It’s always one of my favorite colors (and the main color of my brand) so it’s certainly no hardship to have a “blue” Christmas! I went with this because it’s already such a dominant color in our home, and it allows me to make minimal changes
As I mentioned, I mostly used what I already had, but these sweet little Charlie Brown-style trees are a new addition. I can’t really complain, they look adorable here! I feel like they are the perfect symbol of this theme — simple, but pretty, and a bit imperfect.
The other notable new addition are these little wreaths. I originally ordered enough for the chairs and the windows behind the sink, but only these two little guys have arrived so far, so I reassessed my plans. Side note: one other bonus to these colors are that my grandfather’s coastal paintings can stay right where they normally are.
On the shelves, I brought in a couple of subtle Christmas touches but primarily left what’s usually there in place. The small oil painting is another of my grandfather’s. I love to see all of the little touches when I go to use my new espresso machine that Mack got me for my birthday (admittedly, I use it a lot).
I hope these tips are helpful for you and that you give them a try. But don’t be afraid to change things up later on. If you’re feeling inspired to add more elements to your Christmas kitchen decor, go for it! Make sure to follow along with me on Instagram @ninahendrickhome for more content like this!
