When the holiday season is over and the Christmas and Thanksgiving decorations are cleaned up, you can feel a little empty after months of decorating. Suddenly the mantel looks smooth and there's a lot of empty space where the tree sat all December. But don't worry! Once you've put away all the baubles, colors and decorations, why not bring back some cute winter decorations to add to your home to help you cope with the often dreary weather?
Of course, the holiday season is over until next year, but that doesn't mean you can't decorate your home! Here are some favorite decorating ideas to make the winter home a breeze.

One of the first things you can do to brighten up your space after the holidays is to decorate with a wintry color palette.
Try blue, silver and white
A classic palette of blue, silver and white can make your home look like a winter wonderland. When choosing decor for this theme, choose royal blue or ice blue. Try using this color combination in your dining room or living room to create a space that will bring your home to life in the winter.
Warm colors are preferred
If you choose warm colors, you'll want to use a color palette that brings out the natural tones of your environment. Colors like beige, brown, green and white can look beautiful at home. These shades offer more opportunities to use natural elements such as greenery or raw wood for a more rustic look.
Choose a beautiful look
Try using colors like white, cream and gold for a more glamorous look. These beautiful shades allow you to create a sophisticated scene with golden accents that make your home lively and fun.

Patterns are a fun way to decorate your home after the holidays. Try red and black checks, blue and white stripes, or other winter patterns that match the season. Feel free to use themed items with snowflakes or winter scenes to continue decorating your space during the colder months.

You can't go wrong with natural elements when decorating your home after the holidays.
Try an evergreen wreath on the fireplace mantel
One of the best ways to invite more natural elements into your winter decor is to use evergreen wreaths. Whether you choose natural or faux greenery, a wreath on your mantle can invite color and life into your space.
Place evergreen and pine tree branches in the flowers
If you want to keep things simple, use ceramic or glass vases and bottles to hold evergreen branches and pine trees. Add evergreens, palms or branches in a vase that blends in with your color palette and place around your home on coffee or dining tables to create a beautiful centerpiece.
Use natural wood in your decoration
Additionally, you can create a welcoming element in your space by using natural wood in your decor. For example, use wooden cushions or table wicks to add a natural touch to your dining room table decor. Or place a wooden tray on your coffee table and create the perfect cocoa station where you and your family can enjoy hot drinks.

Add candles for natural light
Candles are a great way to add comfort to your space. The soft glow creates a beautiful and romantic feeling, making it a perfect addition to your home this winter. Add sconces, pot candles, tea lights and scented options to your home.
Use fairy lights or Christmas lights after the holidays
If you don't like open flames, try reusing white or yellow Christmas lights or fairy lights in your home. Hang the lights above windows or on stairwells for a nice look. Or, wrap it around a mantel in the middle of an evergreen wreath for added flair to your decor.
Try some lights to calm down
Lanterns are great winter decorations for farmhouse or traditional home decor. These timeless and classic pieces blend well with traditional family home decor. For the perfect look, add lights to the stairs or fireplace steps.

If you want to play around with some DIY winter decorations, try making some wreaths to decorate your space. Use wire, wooden beads or paper to make your own wreath to decorate your home. Hanging it anywhere you feel like, such as a closet, door, window or wall, will help bring out the natural beauty of your space.

Ceramic cities and winter scenes should not only be used at Christmas. Add a small ceramic winter village to your entryway or living room table to give your decor a simple and classic look. Add some evergreen boughs or pine cones to the landscape to create a beautiful look.

To take advantage of winter comfort, blankets and pillows should be included in your design. Add soft throws to your couch and experiment with different pillow textures in your space to create more dimension.
Decorating your home for winter is all about reinventing your existing Christmas or holiday decor in a new way. For more subdued colors like white, blue, or dark green, mix green and red. Don't forget to use thread or beads to accentuate your design.
