Plaid Outdoor Christmas Porch Decor

When it comes to holiday decor, I love it but I also want to spend my time and energy RENOVATING. It’s definitely a tough balance this time of year! I always have a hard time decorating a room for Christmas until it’s exactly the way I want it. Which means, I tend to only decorate the rooms that are finished. One of the very first spaces that I completed in our home is our outdoor fireplace seating area. It’s the perfect place to decorate for the holidays and the first place I work on! It welcomes everyone into our home.

Every year I do something a little different out here, I try and work with what I have and change it up. This year, I went with a Plaid Outdoor Christmas Porch Decor.

There’s just something extra cozy about an outdoor fireplace at Christmas, right? The crackling fire, the chilly air, the glow from the lights—it all sets the perfect scene for a warm and welcoming holiday hangout. This is the time of year when we use this space the most!

Start with the fireplace since it naturally becomes the main focal point. A few large jingle bells, some small decorative trees, and a simple wreath instantly make the space feel festive without taking away from the beautiful stonework. Little touches like pinecones or greenery keep the look natural and relaxed.

Next, bring in all the comfy textures. Think chunky blankets, soft throw pillows, and rich holiday colors like deep green and classic plaid. I found this Green Plaid Blanket and Green Knit Blanket at Target! The mix of creamy neutrals with seasonal accents makes everything feel cozy but still clean and inviting. And don’t be afraid to mix textures—knits, velvet, woven baskets… it all works together and adds so much warmth.

Lighting is another big one. A slim, pre-lit Christmas tree tucked in the corner adds just the right amount of sparkle. I found these 6 ft pre-lit trees on Amazon and they are the perfect accent trees. At night, those twinkle lights bounce off the brick and stone and make the whole space feel magical.

Then come the fun details—Copper Lanterns tied with velvet bows, Large Jingle Bells , a basket filled with blankets, and a cute “merry” pillow. These little pieces bring personality to the space and make it feel ready for holiday gatherings (or just snuggling up by the fire with hot cocoa).

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.

My @worxtools Switch Driver and Impact Driver were the real MVP’s of this project! Saving me time and energy. I love how it now doubles as a shelf to display antiques I’ve collected throughout the years and also helps me keep this place organized!
