I want to give 15 cozy cottage Christmas decor Ideas to inspire your Christmas decor and get you ready for the holidays!

It is that time of year and we are decorating for the most wonderful time of the year! Even tho we still have no snow here in our parts of Canada, (which is quite unusual), the air is crisp and you can feel winter in the air. The only thing I want to do in this kind of weather is fit by the fire with a warm drink surrounded by warm cozy Christmas decor.

There is just something nostalgic about cozy cottage Christmas decor, a warm an inviting feel while keeping it simple and charming.

Let’s dive into a few ideas how you can decorate your home to make it feel like a warm inviting cozy cottage!

Instead of hanging a single garland try a layered look to add to the cozy vibes. This goes well on a window, mantle, empty wall or wherever else you have the space.

2. Vintage Christmas Art

One of my favourite ways to decorate is with vintage art. This doesn’t have to be expensive, there are tons of affordable options, or you can even find free vintage art. I explain it more in this post how to find and print free vintage art.

3. Plaid Bedding

A classic but it never gets old! Plaid bedding around Christmas time is a vibe and adds to the cozy feel! I love this affordable set!

When creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, smell is just as important as seeing or hearing. Scented candles, diffusing your favourite Christmas oils or creating a potpourri is great way to make sure for a wonderful smell throughout the house.

Star Anise is the perfect winter spice and doesn’t only have to be used when adding flavour, but also make for a cute wreath!
