Winter Decor Ideas Inspired by Scandinavian Artisans

We take our inspiration from places where long, dark winters are not only a part of life, but why the term hygge has entered our vernacular. Nowhere is the perfect balance of warm and whimsical alongside minimalist and modern more clearly defined than in Scandinavian design. Lighter colored woods, metals, and linens interspersed with pops of bright color are signature to the region and our own aesthetic.

From the World To Your Home

Scandinavian designers take inspiration from their expertise in winter living, but it’s only one way to get your home ready for the season. Find even more ideas for winter decor including those from American, French, Japanese, British, and other artisans yet to help make your space truly yours. Here are a few more ways to glow it up, room by room:

For the Living Room and Office

In small spaces, your living room serves as your catch-all for hosting, relaxing, entertaining, and, possibly, working, your contemporary living room decor must be an investment in versatility.

• Use elegant coffee tables, end tables, and other accent furniture as stages for seasonal accoutrements.
• Geometrically pleasing picture frames, shelving, and storage units double as works of art.
• Table lamps add a touch of personality while combatting the winter sadness.
• Baskets, organizers, and other details that make spring cleaning feel less daunting.

Also, switching things up with artisanal throw blankets and pillows can effortlessly enhance a couch, dorm bed, or office chair.

For The Bedroom

Rest well and warm in the winter and delve into decor ideas as comfortable as they are classy. Shop bedroom decor online for ways to touch it up:

• Add friendly and whimsical lamps that will glow all the brighter in the longer nights.
• Hibernate in quality and style with high-thread count linens.
• Keep it plush with luxurious throw blankets in soft, creamy colors.

Our bedroom collection focuses on subtle designs so that your more colorful walls, blankets, or other, more personal decorations can add to the dreamy oasis of your retreat. For kids’ rooms, you can keep to a calm wintry scene with a touch of “snow day” magic with Funny Friends and artisanal suncatchers and mobiles.

For the Bath

Why a hot shower or decadent bath feels especially wonderful on a cold day requires no explanation, but it does require some essentials that even a small home can’t do without. Winter decor for the bath requires warm, fluffy towels and rugs, and the bathrobes to go along with it.

Pair your bathtime routine with scented, seasonal candles that evoke the joy of the seasons, as beautiful porcelain candle holders with clean and elegantly simple ideal designs best used when highlighting your “me time” fancy candles.

For Dining and Entertainment

The winter months are synonymous with winter festivities, including a long holiday season that focuses on gathering together for good meals and warmer company. Whether it’s a big gathering in a small space or you simply want to stay in your home for the holidays, you can find winter decor ideas to entertain in style and any guests stay over in comfort.

Make Comfort Foods Meals in Style

Your bar and kitchen situation calls for inspiration to do wonders with a little bit of counter space, a sink, and a stove. Because winter is all about crafting great indoor comforts, how you prepare them from the comfort of your home is just as important as the food itself. Consider space-savvy home decor ideas for the kitchen such as:

• Whimsical fun kitchen gadgets!
• A self-watering herb planter to bring some green cheer to the bleaker winter days.
• Sustainably made, beautiful aprons.

Also, when space is limited and you’ve entered a season that’s all about baking, make sure your kitchenware is also decoration-worthy! Spice things up with pots, pans, tajines, and must-have accessories that look as good as they amplify your cooking.

Wintry Dining Spaces

There are plenty of winter decor ideas that can enhance your dining space with refined elegance, and with very little space required. Consider ideas like:

• High quality, sustainably made table linens that gracefully evoke refined elegance.
• Flatware and drinkware as beautiful for special occasions as they are functional for daily use.
• Coffee, tea, and bar sets for winter holiday hosting, even for a Party of One.
