This season, spread holiday cheer throughout the home. Who says the Christmas tree gets to have all the fun? The partners we work with throughout the year really turn on their creativity when it comes to holiday decor. Here are some of their tips and inspiration to make this holiday season one of the coziest ever.

In the kitchen, keep it simple, like Melissa Tyler from @lakeandlumber did this year. Elegant wreaths adorn her cabinet fronts. More greenery is draped along the back counter, bringing texture into a usually clean-lined room, softening the edge and complementing the festive wall art leaning against the stove's backsplash.

"One of my favorite ways to add depth to my designs is by utilizing different textures," said Melissa. "This could be done with fabrics (velvet drapes, linen bedding, leather accents), materials/finishes (brass, matte black, or brushed silver light fixtures), or with wall treatments."

Her natural brass Penn pendants are centered over a simple white bowl filled with greenery, creating an eye-catching, elegant focal point on the island.

If your home is on the coast, or if you are simply in love with beachy colors and seaside-inspired decor, consider doing a coastal holiday theme. This home has a fresh, beach-inspired palette. Understated and lovely holiday accents create a serene and peaceful feeling. The Jeffrey Alan Marks Point Dume™ Surfrider pendant features metal tiers in a widening circle reminiscent of row upon row of gentle waves lapping the shoreline. A stunning Maliblue finish gleams in a soft blue-gray neutral tone reminiscent of the waves and sky.

Usher in the new year with a festive gathering for family and friends. "When you welcome guests into your home, you want them to feel a connection to you, your style, and your space through not only furniture and finishes but also the personal experiences you provide," advises the 2021 Toll Brothers Holiday Home guide. "By including custom elements that add a personal flair, like a themed charcuterie board or custom cocktail developed specifically for your event, you create a holiday experience that's both unique and memorable."

Our distinctive Globe LED pendants shine light over an enticing holiday spread. Accented by striking metal cps finished in a lustrous brushed nickel over an opal glass globe, the pendants add a glamourous touch to the festivities.

Happy Holidays from Progress Lighting!
