Pops of Green & Red

In most kitchens, cupboards are the largest visual element of the room. This makes them the perfect starting point for DIY kitchen decorating over Christmas. Red and green are the primary colours associated with the festive season, and can easily be incorporated into your kitchen style. Hang mini wreaths on cabinet doors, tie red ribbons to handles, or display Christmas mugs and glasses on open shelving.

Adorn your Kitchen Island

If your kitchen has an island, there are plenty of simple ways to add festive cheer. Dress up a rustic wooden board with candles and greenery, or fill an accent bowl or vase with baubles. If you have children, showcase their gingerbread houses for the perfect DIY finish. Another great idea is to string fairy lights along the edge of your kitchen island.
