It’s that time of the year. When the festive season rolls around, our homes transform from living spaces to venues of celebration and community.

The decorative accessories that adorn your rooms aren’t just ornaments, but vivid expressions of your personality. When done right, they have the potential to breathe life and joy into any space, highlighting your grace as a host and creating a sense of warmth in your home. While the sofa or a gallery acts as a centerpiece, it’s often the little things that stand out.

Let’s explore some of the ways in which you can use decorative accessories to create an inviting living space.

Why Décor Matters

Thoughtful décor choices can evoke feelings of warmth, nostalgia and joy. Just as we think of Christmas trees in December and carved pumpkins on Halloween, décor is often the first thing that springs to mind when we think about the festive season.

Decorative accessories act as a focal point in your room, with their beautiful designs and shapes. There’s no shortage of options when it comes to finding accessories that match your unique taste.

Let’s explore some of the quintessential items that can elevate your home’s ambience.

Decorative Vases

Decorative vases can act as a showpiece in themselves. Depending on your artistic taste and the aesthetic of your home, choose the right piece for the occasion.

For example, the Bohemian Vase offers a blend of tradition and modernity, with its glistening finish and eclectic coloring. On the other hand, our Black Aluminum Collection is a post-modern showpiece, designed both to blend in or stand out, depending on how you place it.

Candle Holders

The warm, soft light of candles can set the mood instantly, leaving an afterglow of warmth and coziness. From ornate lanterns to minimalist stands, they shape how the candlelight is cast, setting the mood of the space and occasion.

Choose the right candle holders for the right occasions. The Rakel candle holder is a wonderful addition to any dining table, perfect for setting the mood during a large gathering. On the other hand, the Ecomix Abstract is a bold artistic statement that can become a conversation-starter.

Accent Pieces

Accent pieces are stylistic statements that add character to your room. Whether it’s a sculpture, bowl, or ornamental item, an accent piece gives you the opportunity to leave a unique artistic signature in your room. By strategically placing these items, you can highlight certain areas of a room.

At Chattels & More, we have an assorted collection of accent pieces fit for every room and occasion. The Glass Marty is a nod to abstract, minimalist design, while the Obelisque Krizia makes for a grand, opulent statement. It’s also a good idea to take inspiration from nature. Our collection of bowls featuring animal fur patterns, filled with artificial grapes or lemons can add a playful touch to your space.

Creating a cozy, festive home is a delightful journey, enriched by personal taste and inspired choices. With this blog, we’ve only scratched the surface.
