I don’t believe I’ve shared the den and dining rooms since they were painted back in September, so Christmas felt like the perfect time for their debut. Both spaces were color-drenched in Rain by Sherwin-Williams, a rich, moody hue that completely transformed these rooms. The depth of color adds such an intimate, cozy feeling—especially in the den—making it the ideal spot for movie watching on chilly December evenings.
For Christmas, the décor in these rooms leans very traditional, which feels especially beautiful against the dramatic paint color. At the window, a custom shiny brite ornament wreath welcomes you. I enlisted a local artist, the talented @vintageshinybrites, to create this piece. She also crafted the custom ornament tree in the sunroom, and I love how her work ties the holiday story of the house together with sparkle and nostalgia.
The dining area is dressed for the season in one of my longtime favorites—plaid. The table is covered in classic plaid linens, setting the tone for festive gatherings and holiday meals. Overhead, the chandelier is strung with red shiny ornament garlands, casting the most beautiful glow in the evenings. There’s just something magical about the way the ornaments catch the light after the sun goes down.
Throughout both spaces, magnolia garlands and red velvet ribbons add layers of texture and timeless Southern charm. And of course, no holiday setting is complete without scent—Nest Holiday candles fill the air with that unmistakable Christmas fragrance, wrapping the rooms in warmth and cheer.
These rooms may be moody in color, but at Christmastime they are filled with light, tradition, and the simple joy of the season.
Christmas in the Den and Dining Rooms, y'all!
