When it comes to decorating for the Holidays, the dining room is often-neglected. While the main living spaces and the tree tend to receive the most attention, the dining room is often left empty, except maybe for some flowers as a last minute centerpiece. This shouldn’t be the case! During the holidays, there’s a lot that happens in the dining room. Holiday meals are the highlight of most get-togethers, and family and friends often socialize around the table a bit longer during the Christmas season. These are both excellent reasons to make your dining room one of the most inviting, and festive rooms in your house. Show your dining room some love this holiday. Here are a few simple décor details that can help you to create a show stopping dining room that’s fit for the season.

Rustic Inspiration

Rustic décor elements are absolutely perfect for this time of year. You don’t have to go all out and redecorate your entire dining room like the inside of a cabin; a few simple details can pack a powerful punch. Use layered linens, birch wood candleholders, and centerpieces that feature pinecones and sprigs of pine, to recreate a warm and woodsy feel in your dining room.
