Christmas greenery decorating ideas that work for all home styles. Easy tips and ideas to decorate with garland, wreaths and little trees this holiday season.

Mantel Christmas greenery

Adding greenery during the Christmas holiday is the best way to give your home a festive look and feel. I use all faux greenery and mix different types. While I love the smell of fresh greens, we opt out because of allergies.

This year I bought 3 new wreaths, 2 garlands, and 4 little trees from Walmart. I found a bag of greenery stems I had for wreath making in my attic that I was able to use as well.

Wreath tips:

  • Fluff them
  • Mix in additional stems of different greenery and berries
  • Dried orange slices give a faux wreath life
  • Add bows and ribbon

Garland tips:

  • Fluff them
  • Stay simple or layer 2 garlands for a full look
  • Add accessories like ornaments
  • Layer with wood beads, yarn, popcorn, etc.
  • Swag or not, looks good both ways

Little tree tips:

  • Fluff them
  • Leave them naked
  • Place them in a container such as basket, urn, bucket, pottery, etc
  • Great winter decor past Christmas

All of the tips shared above I used throughout our home. The mantel greenery decor is mixed stems and little trees. The pottery was thrifted finds and worked perfectly for my little trees. The trees are my favorite look of the season.

The Merry & Bright mantel sign I built and painted a few years ago.

I gave our DIY drop cloth stockings a new plaid wool top this year.

Look closely through all of the photos below and give the tips a try.

This year I wanted a natural winter look. I’m thrilled with the results. It feels exactly the way I had hoped it would. Using the natural looking pine stems, garland and wreaths helped a lot.
