Outdoor Fireplace Christmas Decor

It was right around this time last year that I started giving our outdoor fireplace area a little facelift and furnishing it for the very first time! A year later, and it has become one of my favorite spaces to decorate for the holidays! It’s the perfect spot to add a little festive cheer. From the soft glow of twinkling lights to the simplicity of garland, let’s explore ideas that bring a touch of Christmas and talk about my outdoor fireplace Christmas decor.

Tips For Decorating Your Outdoor Space For The Holidays

Creating a seamless look in your outdoor space can prove harder than you think. Mastering the art of mixing textures, playing with complimentary colors, and cherishing the importance of the small details are just a few things I think about when planning any space. I wanted to experiment with the contrast between soft, plush elements and rustic textures to create a visually engaging space. The soft neutral colors we see throughout the rug and pillows paired with the warm depth of different wood textures add depth and character to this cozy courtyard.

Pay attention to the small details – a well-placed wreath, carefully chosen accents, and thoughtfully coordinated color scheme will make a significant impact on your room! It is the subtle nuances that breathe life into your holiday haven, turning your courtyard into a captivating retreat for festive family time or celebrations!

Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been 19 years since I’ve been here and it’s even more magical than I remember! There is something truly special about this city. The architecture, the people, the most amazing pastries, and gorgeous gardens. Showing my family this city was a gift. I experience it in a different way each time and it just keeps getting better.

Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard furniture and decor! Unfortunately, when I get an idea I can’t stop until it’s done 😉. I got an itch to swap out our three chaise lounges for a large U-Shape sectional to create more seating and lounging poolside. I knew there was only one brand who could make this happen… I worked with @polywood to design a sectional that would be a complete custom fit for this little nook. I used the Braxton 6 Seat Sectional and added additional modular seats to get this look. I LOVE how it turned out! They can make anything happen! 

POLYWOOD outdoor furniture is made out of recycled plastics, making it durable in all weather climates. They also have a 20 year warranty.

POV: working with what you have and creating somet POV: working with what you have and creating something completely new! I kept all the original flooring, cabinets, backsplash and fixtures and did only cosmetic updates to update this space. I wanted to add more contrast, character, warmth and texture. By smoothing out the texture of the walls it instantly gave it an updated look, the new paint color added contrast, the wood ceiling added warmth and texture and all the antiques and vintage pieces gave it the charm. 🖤

LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of working with what we have, turning something with great bones into something that is unique, custom and full of character. (Swipe for the before) It now feels like my own little escape to the French countryside every time I do laundry, and I’m not mad about it. 

Comment LAUNDRY for all the details and links!
