Festive Christmas Nursery Decor Ideas To Try This Season

1.Festive Shelf

When it comes to decorating, simple touches make a subtle yet gorgeous nod to the season. One of the easiest ways to freshen up for the incoming festivities is to restyle any shelving in the nursery.

Switching out details to add in festive ornaments such as mini trees and houses, this is all you need for that festive nod. If you have pegs like the below, hang a sweet garland and stocking from them.

11. Touches of Green

This little boys room is one of our favorites, tastefully working festive touches into a relaxed blue and white scheme.

Introduce sprigs of foliage and if you’re adding a little tree, do it in a less than usual way by adding it to a cute rattan pot.
