SPREAD THE CHEER

-

Ensure sweet dreams by extending Christmas decoration­s into your sleeping quarters, as Jeannie did in her master bedroom. She offers these easy ways to transform your cozy retreat into a winter sanctuary:

Lucky make a mantel. enough to have a deep headboard? Use it as a makeshift mantel and festive focal point. Embellish it with a whitewashe­d window from a crafts store or vintage market and a pair of rustic reindeer.

Bring the forest go green. inside with real and faux greenery, pinecones and berries. Line the headboard with garland, tuck branches into containers, or adorn art and accessorie­s with wreaths to introduce pops of color.

Coordinate Textiles. Warm your feet—and your decor— with vibrant checked accent rugs that echo the colorful tones featured in plaid sheets, seasonal pillows and themed bedding. ★
