This is vintage holiday decor for the host who wants every season to look collected, from Christmas and Fall to Halloween, Easter and summer.
Seasonal decor shouldn’t look like it all came from the same aisle. Antique Farmhouse has been curating home decor since 2011, and the holiday collections follow the same rule as everything else here: hand-picked pieces, bought in limited quantities, so once something is gone, it is gone.
Pieces are bought direct from vendors and chosen for how they look in a real room: distressed wood, mercury glass, grapevine, stoneware, woven baskets and plaid. Most are vintage-inspired rather than true antiques. You get the look of vintage decor with a seasonal point of view, without the estate-sale hunt.
Hosts who change the house with the calendar. If your home is farmhouse, cottage, shabby chic or somewhere in between, each season’s pieces slot into what you already have, whether that means a tree-trimming Christmas, a porch full of pumpkins or a table set for Easter brunch. Starting from scratch? Pick the holiday on the calendar next and build one anchor moment, like a mantel or a front door.
Start with the holiday coming up next and work outward. Each season has its own page and its own anchor pieces.
Cedar garlands, berry-trimmed wreaths, old-world Santas and plaid. Our farmhouse Christmas decor leans nostalgic and layered, with pieces like the Real Touch Pine Garland, the Deluxe Lush Cedar Pine and Berry Decorative Wreath and the Retro Christmas Bucket Set of 2, so the house looks gathered over many Decembers.
Fall decor runs on faux mum bushes, paper mache pumpkins, woodland animals and harvest wreaths like the Gathered Harvest Maple and Pomegranate Wreath, and it carries from the first cool morning through Thanksgiving. When you want the spookier side, Halloween decor goes further, and pieces like the Jack O Lantern Jingle Bell Ornament Set of 6 and the 6 Piece Rustic Wooden Candy Corn Set already sit on the line between the two.
Spring and Easter decor leans on faux flowers, soft color and a little moss. For the warm months, summer decor keeps the same collected look in brighter tones.
Patriotic decor and Mother’s Day pieces round out the calendar, so the year’s gatherings, from picnics to brunches, each get their own look.
Keep a base that stays up all year, like wood, baskets, stoneware and linen, and swap only the accents. That makes each changeover a ten-minute job instead of a weekend.
Plan the swaps in order. Fall pieces can stay up through Thanksgiving, then Christmas takes over. Fluff and shape faux greenery and flowers when you unbox them, and store each season in a labeled bin in a cool, dry place so it comes out ready for next year. Near greenery, dried florals and paper mache, use flameless candles instead of open flame. Check the product page before placing any piece outdoors.
Vintage holiday decor borrows the look of earlier holidays: mercury glass, old-world Santas, plaid, brass and aged metal. Most Antique Farmhouse pieces are vintage-inspired rather than true antiques, so you get a nostalgic, collected look without hunting estate sales.
Keep a neutral base of wood, baskets and linen, then swap two or three seasonal accents at a time. One strong anchor per room reads as collected, and five reads as a theme.
Keep fall pieces up through Thanksgiving, then switch. A good first swap is the door: trade the fall wreath for one of the Christmas wreaths, and layer in the rest from there.
Use labeled bins in a cool, dry place, with delicate pieces wrapped and greenery loosely packed so it keeps its shape. The original box works well for fragile items.
The daily email goes out at 11am EST with what’s new, and back-in-stock alerts are available. Sold-out pieces usually don’t return, so a piece you love is worth claiming.
Antique Farmhouse features products for each of the main holidays. We pay especially close attention to Christmas, Halloween, patriotic holidays like the 4th of July and Memorial Day, Easter, and Mother’s Day. These collections stay up all year, so you can shop for them at any time.
Echo your existing tones, repurpose vessels, build with greenery, and use a cohesive accent ribbon or wreath. Other ideas include focusing on ambient lighting, using textiles to soften the overall look, and clearing out any clutter before adding holiday pieces.
Yes! It’s absolutely possible to maintain an elegant home while also decorating for the holidays. In fact, the four main principles of having elegant holiday decor include relying on natural elements, limiting your color palette, highlighting your architecture, and emphasizing warm lighting.
Lighting and path fixtures you may put up for a holiday like fairy lights can be left year round. Botanical and greenery accents can also stay, but you may have to remove seasonal ribbons. Finally, structural and porch accents like bronze lanterns and architectural planters can become useful all year by removing ornamental grasses and swapping floral arrangements.
Absolutely! Metal lanterns, glass vases, and wooden trays are good examples. Furthermore, LED candles and warm fairy lights work all year long. Also, plain garlands or wreaths can work for every season by simply swapping out the accent ribbon or bow. Keep in mind that if you truly love a specific season, you can also keep nicer pieces out like a framed picture.
Group your items by holiday using proper containers. Be sure to label each container. Remove batteries and discard any faded or broken pieces. Store your decor in a dry, temperature-stable area. Avoid extremely hot/cold attics for delicate pieces such as candles and fabric. Use bubble wrap for fragile items.
