7 Dining Room Decor Ideas for the Holiday Season
Posted on January 2, 2022
It is that time of year again. In just a few weeks we will be celebrating Christmas & New Years once again. The holidays only come once a year but they can create a great deal of stress for those who host the gatherings for their friends and family.
Not only do you have to handle shopping for gifts and meals, but also then manage all the cooking. Then you must make sure your house is in tip-top shape to receive company.
This is a long list of duties, and sometimes the decorating gets forgotten due to the holiday rush.
But CertaPro can help! We have some ideas to help you with sprucing up the dining room & some last-minute decorations for your home.
Let CertaPro Painters Refresh Your Dining Room for your Winter Celebrations
One of the most important rooms in your house during the holidays is the dining room. Having family over for the holidays means you’ll be spending a good chunk of time in the dining room.
Why not spruce it up for these celebrations?
With CertaPro painters, you can make your dining room look like a four-star restaurant. Our professional painters can also make your dining room painting project stress-free. We can help no matter how big or small your painting project is.
We’re great at handling the huge painting projects you need when you want a complete transformation. But we also know a few more tricks to help you create just the space you need.
Here are some additional fun, and creative ways to help turn your dining into the perfect holiday spot:
- Create an idyllic snowy scene as a centerpiece
Make your dining room table the main focus of the room. All you need is faux snow, miniature pine trees, battery-operated string lights, and a winter village set which is optional. This is a great way to decorate for your holiday meals.
- Decorate the Mantel
If you have a mantel in your dining room, be sure to decorate it! This can be done in a variety of different ways. However, it usually involves lots of garland. Drape the faux or real garland over the mantel and then add lights and/or ornaments.
For an extra touch, you can place large white candles behind the garland to create an authentic holiday vibe.
- Create a homemade winter centerpiece for the table
You will need small pine cones, greenery, and winter flowers. Then add your favorite Christmas table runner. This is a great way to display your favorite holiday tchotchkes or the holiday art your children made (this year or from years past).
- Hang Snowflakes from the Chandelier and the ceiling
Most dining rooms have some sort of large light fixture that is over the table. This is the perfect place to hang snowflakes to create a winter wonderland. You can even hang them from the ceiling. This creates a fun winter theme.
- Decorate the chairs
Chair covers can really dress up a dining room. You can purchase them in neutral colors & add some holiday trim to make them look like Christmas. However, they are also really easy to make yourself. A quick search on the internet, and you can find patterns and suggestions for decorating them on your own. These also protect your chairs from stains, dents, and scrapes.
- Popsicle Snowflake Decorations
Use popsicle sticks to create snowflake décor. You can spray paint them silver, gold, white, or any color that matches the aesthetic in your home. Each one will be unique, and this could be a fun project to do as a family. Once you are done you can hang them on any blank wall space you might have in the dining area.
- Mason Jar Candle Holders
Use mini pinecones, faux snow, and pine to decorate the mason jar, and then add a small candle inside for a beautiful winter scene in a jar. These look beautiful as a centerpiece, up on the mantel or anywhere around your home.
These are just a few suggestions to get you started decorating your dining room for the holidays. But if you are interested in a major dining room makeover, CertaPro can help you!
