Green is my favorite color during the holidays. A few touches of greenery—whether fresh clippings, wreaths, or small accessories—bring warmth and a cozy, festive feeling to any room.
This week we added a new green centerpiece to our home: the Christmas tree. We took Jack and Lily along to pick it out. They loved sniffing each tree, proudly sporting their holiday sweaters while we searched for the perfect one.
Below I’ve gathered some simple, green-inspired Christmas decorating ideas to spark your creativity.
Scandi simplicity with candles and moss
Minimal green accents for a modern look
Unexpected green details like wall plates add charm
Use natural elements—fruit, sprigs, and simple place cards—for a fresh table
Classic green and white keeps the look crisp and timeless
Small boxwood sprigs or clippings are perfect for styling books, trays, or place settings
