25 Scandinavian Christmas Ideas and Inspiration

Before we take a look at what A Scandinavian Christmas might look like, let’s explore some marked characteristics of Scandinavian style.

In a few words . . .

Simplicity

Paired Back

Understated Elegance

Minimalism and Functionality

That about sums it up.

I often day dream about embracing this lifestyle because it seems so refreshing.  Perhaps, pulling off a Scandinavian Christmas might be a good start.

Lots of whites and grays, evergreens, wood tones, and cozy fabrics.

Can I get an AMEN?!

Enjoy 😉

  1. I loved a lot of the Scandinavian ideas, maybe it’s my age but simple just seems better. Thanks, i enjoyed this post.

  2. Thanks for sharing these beautiful images and stirring up the memories! I have always loved the simplicity of the Scandinavian Christmas style. My mother decorated with some Scandinavian accents when I was a child. I have some of those now and treasure them. I always say I’m going to keep it simple decorating each year but then when the homemade ornaments the kids (now 29 & 26) made come out, I have to put them on the tree. I just decided this year I’m keeping it simple!
