The Best Neutral Christmas Decor For An Insanely Cute and Cozy Christmas

When I was thinking of how to decorate my apartment I knew right away that I was going to get a "snow" covered Christmas tree. Don’t get me wrong I think plain green Christmas trees still look stunning with neutral ornaments but I love how bright and Christmas-y this tree looked. I used gold, white, and beige ornaments to accent my tree and it added the perfect amount of decoration to my tree without looking cluttered.

This is the exact tree I bought but I will admit it is a little pricey. This tree from Home Depot is super similar though and costs way less!

For my living room, I kept my Christmas decor pretty minimal. Between the gold Christmas trees on the coffee table and the greenery behind my couch, it was just enough Christmas decor in my living room to add the Christmas spirit without throwing decor all over the place. I'm pretty sure these gold Christmas trees are seasonal items at Target but here is the link if/when they are back in stock.

But, if you want to add a little more to your living room you can also add a sweater throw pillow/blanket to subtly incorporate the holiday spirit.

This is super simple but a cute addition to your neutral Christmas decor if you are looking to decorate your kitchen. Stack a couple of serving trays and add simple Christmas decorations. I got these gold Christmas trees to set on top of the tray and filled a glass jar with bells. (Again, pretty sure these trees are seasonal but here is the link).

Not only is this neutral Christmas decor cute, but it’s also the perfect way to decorate your kitchen counter without taking up a ton of space.

As you can tell I went pretty easy on the mantel decor. There wasn’t a ton of space above my fireplace for decor but I wanted to keep it simple anyway. To do this, I just used a green garland, beads, and gold hooks to hang my stockings. It ended up looking super cute + I didn’t have to worry about breakable decor falling off my mantel (weird thing to worry about I know but it freaks me out).

Have a shelf you want to decorate for Christmas? Here’s an easy way to do it that will fit right into your neutral Christmas decor. Switch out your usual greenery for pine cones, frosted leaves, or pine leaves. Accent the rest of your shelves with simple white ceramic trees and bark. This inspiration is such a good idea if you want to decorate for Christmas while still incorporating your other decor!

No neutral Christmas decor is complete without incorporating the same colors into your gift wrapping as well! You can totally still have fun with mix-matched wrapping paper and bows just stick to assorted neutral colors. Also, love the idea of using a pine stem to accent your gifts.

A ton of people have friends and family over for dinner over the holidays so if you are planning on hosting you are going to want a super cute table set up. But honestly, even if you don’t plan on hosting a big dinner, decorating your dining table is a stunning way to add neutral Christmas decor to your home.

Lay down a cute, neutral table runner and fill the table with leaf garlands, mini Christmas trees, flowers, and gold accents through your silverware and candlesticks. If you do plan on hosting a dinner, set out matching plates and add place cards with each person’s name!

Picture this: cuddling up in a cozy blanket on the couch, drinking hot cocoa, listening to Christmas music, with the fireplace crackling in the background. Is there any better feeling than that?!

To recreate this cozy Christmas feeling, decorate the mantel with a garland, white stockings, and gold decor. Add simple gold ornaments to your tree and use matching neutral wrapping paper for the gifts under your tree. This inspiration is a great example of how you can still use a green tree while decorating using neutral Christmas decor.

Christmas decor doesn’t get much easier than this! For a stunning but simple way to decorate your shelves for the holidays just add a banner and some greenery. Incorporate subtle Christmas elements into your shelves with small trees, angels, and ornaments.

Can we also acknowledge the genius idea of turning books backward to eliminate mix-matched color and clutter on your shelves?! This is such a smart neutral Christmas decor idea but it could totally be used in your everyday decor as well.

Brown wrapping paper not only looks amazing under a neutral Christmas tree, but it’s also super inexpensive! You can either buy rolls of brown paper or even save the paper that comes in packages. After all, it is Christmas... You’re going to be ordering a ton of packages so why not take advantage of all the free wrapping paper?!

Here is another stunning Christmas table setting that also works perfectly for outdoor dining! Between these super cute matching plates and garland table runner, this table setting incorporates the Christmas spirit perfectly while sticking to a neutral theme.

An easy way to decorate your entryway door is by using a garland. You can find these for super cheap on Amazon and they add the perfect touch to your front door. Use a couple of small Christmas trees to your entryway table and a garland to finish off your Christmas entryway decor.
