Christmas season is quickly approaching, it’s time to prepare to decorate your home! You start and end your day in your bedroom, so you should be decorating it for the holidays if you want to keep your holiday spirit alive.

Here’s 40 Christmas bedroom decor ideas that you should think about using!

1. Comfortable Christmas Bedding

Your bedroom can easily improve its looks if you get festive bedding emanating with the holiday spirit. Try finding Christmas-themed bed sheets, duvet covers, or throw pillows so that you can sleep surrounded by the spirit of Christmas.

Golds, reds, and greens are colors you shouldn’t be shy to use for a vibrant Christmas style. If you’re out for something more on the subtle side, aim for a winter theme using light blue and white. These colors will give the room a wintertime appearance that doesn’t overwhelm you.

2. Peaceful Fairy Lights

One of the easiest ways to add a flair of magic to a room is fairy lights. Place them along your headboard, your dresser, or even the windows to give the space an dreamy glow that’s straight out of a story book. 

For a cozy vibe, put up warm white fairy lights, while colorful ones give off a much more festive feel. If you want it to show your creativity in a whimsical way, place the fairy lights in lanterns or jars to make them look like fireflies or fairies.

3. Holiday Throw Blankets

Some throw blankets are useful on those cold winter days, but also they’re an easy medium for some additional Christmas spirit. Find some throw blankets that come in the colors of Christmas like red, white, and green.

Thick faux fur or knitted throw blankets will add a luxurious and warm touch to your bedroom. If you’re feeling brave, get blankets that have Christmas patterns on them, such as snowflakes or reindeers. Fun patterns like that make the space that much more festive.

4. Christmas Wreath On The Wall

Instead of having the Christmas wreath on your front door, try having the vibrant Christmas wreath hang on the wall above the bed. If you’re in need of something natural but festive in your bedroom, find a wreath made of eucalyptus, pine, or berries.

Those who want a modern appearance, a metallic or frosted wreath is one you should go for instead. For those who want to personalize it, DIY enthusiasts can create their own using small baubles and ornaments that match with the bedroom’s color scheme.

5. Holiday Wall Art.

The art on your walls? Replace it for holiday-themed paintings and prints. You can put up paintings of classical Christmas scenery or prints of Santa. 

If you’re looking to save money, find seasonal prints online for cheap or even craft your own using some of your own paint and some stencils. This method is a convenient way to add Christmas into your decor without taking up much space.

6. Miniature Christmas Tree on the Dresser

If you want to experience the holidays to the fullest, you need to get a miniature Christmas tree inside your bedroom. Get a tree that can fit on any tabletop so that you can place it on your dresser. 

The Christmas tree can’t go undecorated though, so add on fairy lights, ornaments, and of course a tree topper. The holiday cheer can be kept alive in your own space in a minimalist way solely by having this miniature tree in it.

7. Christmas-Scented Candles

If you’re looking to have a sensory holiday season in your bedroom, you need the smells of cinnamon, gingerbread, and pine. Place a scented candle or two in your bedroom and make sure the fragrance is one like “Gingerbread Cookie” or “Spiced Cinnamon.” 

Also, having the candles in your bedroom will let you have a cozy light in your room when it gets late. If you need a safer alternative, there are flameless scented candles you can find.
