I’m so excited to be sharing my home all decorated in Scandinavian Christmas decor ideas today with the Seasonal Simplicity Tour hosted by Krista at The Happy Housie.

If you’re coming from the Happy Happy Nestor welcome.  Isn’t Janine’s home beautiful, and there’s so much inspiration.

My name is Dannyelle and I live near Toronto, Canada with my husband, a computer programmer (which comes in handy when you’re a blogger) and our two girls Paige and Maddie who are 11, and 14.  I love to blog about our home, DIYs, entertaining, and recipes.  I hope you’ll come in and enjoy the tour.  Let’s start with the front porch.

Front Porch

Christmas Home Tour 2018 -Black and White Scandinavian design with a little boho. Lots of natural elements, cozy texture and Christmas twinkle lights.I always feel like the front door is a little taste of what’s to come inside.  I love rustic Scandinavian style, especially at Christmas.  Scandinavian style is all about bringing the outdoors in and decorating with whatever is seasonal.  At Christmas that means lots of things like birch, pinecones, and fresh greens.

Lots of natural elements, cozy texture and Christmas twinkle lights.Over on the other side a fun little DIY.  I couldn’t find any beautiful antique skis at a decent price so, I took some old ones from a thrift store and spray painted them white for a nice neutral look to fit in with my decor.

Mudroom / Laundry Room

Lots of natural elements, cozy texture and Christmas twinkle lights.We just finished re-doing our mudroom / laundry room for the last One Room Challenge -read all about it here.  It’s so much more functional and beautiful.  I couldn’t resist dressing it up just a little for Christmas.

Scandinavian Christmas Decor Ideas in the Dining Room

Christmas Home Tour 2018 -Black and White Scandinavian design with a little boho. Lots of natural elements, cozy texture and Christmas twinkle lights.I kept the console table really simple with a little grouping of trees and some garlands.  I wanted the main floor to feel really cozy this year, so I went with lots of whites, neutrals and texture.

I’ve got the table all set for Christmas dinner.

I used some rustic wood slice chargers, and layered on some festive napkins and these sweet little cloche ornaments.

Lots of natural elements, cozy texture and Christmas twinkle lights.I also love the glasses.  When I was a little girl, my parents had some that were very similar.  They were kept on some open shelves in the kitchen and I remember my parents only really using them for mixed drinks when they had friends over for card games.  These have little pine trees on them and deer and they’re perfect for Christmas.

My buffalo check wall at the end of the dining room is all dressed up for Christmas too.

Lots of natural elements, cozy texture and Christmas twinkle lights.Two were made with gold rings, and two with embroidery hoops.  They’re updated from last year with their asymmetrical design, and some pom poms and tassels.  I love how they turned out and they were so simple to make.

Lots of natural elements, cozy texture and Christmas twinkle lights.I set up my little Christmas village here too.  It’s one of my very favourite Christmas decorations, and I love how they light up, and the little animals with them.

Lots of natural elements, cozy texture and Christmas twinkle lights.Inspired by the birch on the table, I added a real one too.  This one was found in the woods.  I stood it up in the garage in a pail with some concrete for a few days, before I brought it in.  It’s so simple and pretty with the twinkle lights on it.

And on the side a little collection of wood plates I found recently at the thrift store, dressed up with some pinecones, beads, and an antler.

From the dining room, I thought we’d head downstairs to our cozy family room.

Black and White Family Room

  1. Wow, Danyelle, love your Scandi style decor. So many pretty touches throughout your home. That black and white checkered wall is something. Looking forward to seeing more 🙂

  2. Wow! I love all the neutral and natural elements. That reading tent is such a cute idea. I am sure that will be the favourite spot to read Christmas stories! Thank you for sharing your home on the house tour.

  3. Oh my goodness, where do I begin! Your holiday home is so wonderful and you even have real snow! All your natural touches are so elegant and I especially love your branch in your dining room. I did the same but didn’t have such a pretty branch! Next year I’ll try it again. Loved reading and viewing your great holiday tour!

  4. I adore your Scandinavian theme. I love brining the outdoors in and love how you’ve used nature and simplicity. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the typewritten note. It caught my eye as my 12 year old is asking for a vintage black typewriter for Christmas. Also, love your black and white candy canes. xx

  5. Dannyelle this is just gorgeous!! You never cease to amaze me with the level of detail you add when decorating your home…just stunning! And those cloches are my fave…what a great way to decorate and give gifts

  6. Danielle, thank you so much. My 11 year old just got a different vintage typewriter for her birthday! Great minds think alike. 😉
