Sabrina Carpenter's vintage-inspired Christmas decorations
Choosing vintage decor for your home this holiday season is a great option, as you can be really creative with what you choose. This is why we love Sabrina's take on this.
Why we love Sabrina Carpenter's vintage-inspired Christmas decorations
Sabrina has cleverly matched her Christmas decor palette with her cottagecore-style home, which has blue and white floral wallpaper. “If you’re living in a home that you can’t redecorate, lean into what you have instead of trying to overwhelm the space,” says Emily Lambe, deputy editor of Real Homes. “Sabrina has used a white Christmas tree and colorful decorations to match the contrast on her wallpaper.” If you love the wallpaper look and you're renting, you could always try peel-and-stick wallpaper.
The whole home is very grandpa chic, which is currently taking over coastal grandmother as the vintage-inspired small space interior trend for 2024. “Moody hues, dark wooden textures, and secondhand coffee table books are all easy ways to bring this look into your home, which Sabrina has done even before she’s started decorating for Christmas,” says Emily.
You also don’t necessarily need to buy vintage-inspired items — you could even go to your local Goodwill and try and find secondhand furniture and decorations. “This is a brilliant way to find decorations that nobody else will have, which will add unique charm and character to your home,” says Emily. “Also, don’t be afraid to ask friends and family if they have any decorations that they’re throwing away, as their trash might just be your treasure.”
As well as this, you could always handmake your own decorations, like Sabrina has with her cards. “String all your cards together is such a cute way of displaying them all, rather than having them all on your coffee table and needing to declutter your small space later on,” says Emily. She also likes that Sabrina has displayed them vertically, which makes her small space appear bigger thanks to the eye being drawn upwards.
