Christmas decorations can never be complete without some country touch for most of us. Can you imagine anything else that would add tons of homemade touches and a gloriously rustic feel? We absolutely cannot and this is why we always aim to incorporate farmhouse themes in our Christmas décor.
If you want some farmhouse theme inspiration for your home this Christmas season too then here are some great ideas for you:
1. Citrus Garland
Nothing defines a farmhouse theme better than a citrus garland and a rattan topper to go with it. You can find these timeless classics in any Christmas décor shop. It only requires classic touches like plaid accents, red balls and tons of natural elements on the tree to achieve the theme.
Some of these could be dried citrus garlands that you and the kids could go hunting for before thanksgiving. You can even place a rattan star at the top of the prelit tree for a perfectly stunning farmhouse effect.
2. Depicting the Country Flea Markets
What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when we say Country flea markets at Christmas? Surely you would say paper ephemera or bright balls. If you had the good fortune of growing up in the countryside, with giant fir trees adorning your homes every Christmas, then you know what we’re talking about.
Those glorious trees would have tons and tons of festive paper balls adorning the trees. There were also the countless paper ephemera, such as sentimental numbers that the antique shops and flea markets would sell by the dozen.
There’s nothing that should stop you from getting these for your prelit Christmas tree this season. We know it will give you the nostalgic farmhouse touch you miss. This season, let your farmhouse theme aim for the classics.
3. Farmhouse Favorites
When we talk about a farmhouse theme for Christmas, we’re really referring to the electric candles, the gingerbread garlands and the straw stars. You would never fail to spot these on Country Christmas trees. Hence, you should remember to get your hands on as many of these items during sales before the season as you can.
For a more homespun vibe, remember to add a quilted tree skirt as well. It will surely make your grandma reminisce about Christmases during her childhood.
4. Candy Tins
Hey, grandmothers never fell short of these in our country home during the childhood. We remember how there was a candy tin elevating a tree in just about every corner of the house and it never failed to delight.
Life may have become modern but not modern enough to stop making us squeal with delight at candy tins now too. We wouldn’t miss an opportunity to grab a treat out of these most beautiful-looking tins all through the season. Would you?
Hence, gather as many candy tins for your farmhouse theme this year and prop them underneath the mini trees, on your mantelpiece for ornaments, tablescape and others.
From citrus and paper ornaments, to gingerbread garlands, nothing can feel more soul-satisfying than a country Christmas.
