There’s no place like home for the holidays, as we all know.  And who better to hum that tune than a college student home to visit Mom and Dad in between semesters?  Well, if you are the homeward bound daughter of Kelly from Talk of the House, then being home for the holidays means than not only are the halls decked with holly, but your bedroom is, too!  

Talk of the House Christmas bedroom

It’s become a tradition for Kelly to add festive touches to her daughter’s bedroom each Christmas, and I just love the snowflake theme she used for this year.  White snowflakes on red pillows cozy up the beds, and the evergreen garland over the windows twinkle with lights.  The simple but effective decorating she has done looks great in this bedroom, but I think it wouldwork well in other parts of the home, too.

The trick to getting these buffalo check curtains for less is to find tablecloths in the color you want.  A Cultivated Nest tells all about the easy no-sew transformation from tablecloth to drapery.

5. Build Your Own Bunkbeds

The Stucco Bungalow built this adorable bunk set for their girls.  With free or low-cost project plans available, there are lots of choices for the eager do-it-yourselfers .  

I think this room has some great touches that can last the whole year round, but I love the addition of seasonal decor, too.  I’m curious:  do you decorate bedrooms for Christmas at your house?

  1. Thank you for featuring our daughter’s bedroom. It keeps its red color scheme year round. I have used those red snow pillows from Walmart and Hallmark for years!
