This post will provide you with inspiration on how to add touches of Christmas decor around your home that are on trend in 2024. Most items have a traditional feel to them and will no doubt work well with Christmas decorations that you may already own.
One of my favourite films to watch during the holiday season is Little Women (1994). Seeing the way they decorate their home for Christmastime with greenery, bows and candlelight is so simple and yet so inspiring.
Decorating your home for Christmas became popular during the Victorian ages, which is when Little Women was first published as a novel (in 1868). It’s wonderful to see that these traditional Victorian elements of Christmas decor are still used today.
In this post I have selected timeless pieces that are available to buy on Etsy and Amazon. I love buying from Etsy in particular and being able to support small businesses. Etsy also has lots of unique gift ideas within The Festive Season Hub.

Christmas Decor Trends for 2024
Gold Bells
Gold bells hanging on rope or jute are a big trend for 2024. Depending on the size of the bells, they look great hanging from one side of your mantlepiece or attached to the middle of a Christmas wreath.
This set of 5 golden bells from Etsy would make a gorgeous addition to your home this Christmas.
This set of 4 rustic gold bells from Amazon are also a great option for hanging from a mantlepiece or wreath.
Velvet Bows
Velvet bows are still a big trend for 2024. Bows can be hung on your Christmas tree, or a garland hanging on the fireplace or staircase. Velvet bows can also be attached to wreaths and picture frames.
Popular colours of velvet bows include burgundy, wine, dark brown and a lighter khaki brown. These tones look especially beautiful against the greenery of a Christmas tree or garland.
I love the colours of velvet ribbon available to buy from Fringe and Rose on Etsy.
I also like this wine colour ribbon that’s available on Amazon.
This khaki golden brown colour is what I have hanging from my mantlepiece, a mirror and a picture frame.
Handmade Stockings
Knitted stockings are another big trend for Christmas 2024. Creams and more neutral colours seem to be the most popular. I like the slightly different patterns in this set from Amazon.
If you are looking for the perfect Christmas stocking for yourself or a loved one, these velvet William Morris designs by Winifred J are simply stunning. They are handmade in Devon, England. A beautiful choice if you are looking to include some Victorian charm within your Christmas decor.
Candles
Candles are the perfect way to add extra light to your home during the darker winter months. The flickering light of a candle will make your home feel warm, cozy and inviting. Here are some of my favourite candles on the market.
Soy Wax Candles
Soy wax candles with seasonal scents such as ginger, cinnamon, vanilla, orange and clove are perfect for the holiday season. This gingerbread scented candle from Etsy smells gorgeous.
Beeswax Candles
I love having beeswax taper candles on my mantlepiece and dining room table. They smell beautiful and help to purify the air by releasing negative ions when lit.
LED Taper Candles
These battery operated LED taper candles are a great alternative to real candles if you have pets or small children and safety is an issue. The flame is designed to flicker, so they look pretty realistic when lit.
Candle Stick Holders
These brassy gold candle stick holders have a lovely vintage look to them. They would look great on a mantlepiece or dining room table, both at Christmas and all year round.
Red & White Tea Towels
I love a classic ticking stripe design, especially on a dish towel. Adding in some extra red and white during the festive season is an easy way to elevate your Christmas decor.
This lovely design makes me think of a candy cane. It’s available from Kadippers on Etsy.
The set of 3 tea towels below are available from Aunt Martha’s on Amazon.
Vintage Digital Prints
Swapping out your artwork throughout the year is an easy way to update your home decor. I love all of the vintage digital artwork that can be bought relatively cheaply on Etsy.
I have purchased several digital prints from Lexington Prints on Etsy and have been really pleased with them. These adorable little carol singers will be on display in my living room during the festive season.
