Decorating a winter bedroom with holiday greenery is a first for me, but I’m loving everything about it. I think this may become a new tradition, and maybe next year, I’ll even add a tree. The thing is, Christmas seems to come and go so fast, that I want to find more ways to enjoy the season just a little bit more.

Cold temperatures hit us earlier than normal this year, so I already have the down comforter on the bed along with a new duvet cover. I usually don’t pull out the big covers until January.
Winter Bedroom With Plaid
So Merry Christmas to me and the husband a little early with a very handsome plaid duvet cover and matching shams. Here’s another plaid one similar to mine.
In the south we always think of dressing in layers and the same goes for bedding. If and when the white flax linen quilt wears out I’m getting another one just like it. This one is perfect weight for our crazy fluctuating day to night temperatures.
I thought about removing the ticking slip cover for winter, but I love the blue ticking stripe and navy plaid combination. Having fabric on the headboard also adds to the coziness of the bedroom. Along with ticking I also love grain sack pillow covers and this one blends in perfectly!
Winter Bedroom With Holiday Greenery
I think it must be the new bedding that motivated me to add the few extra embellishments. Do you decorate your bedroom for holidays or just seasons changes?
Resting on the top of the head board are two preserved boxwood garlands. That bright green shows up so well with the ticking head board slipcover. To see the project click on Headboard Slipcover.
By switching out one of the plates above the bed for a boxwood wreath the holiday greenery is complete. See nothing overboard just a little bit of festive holiday color.
So far the husband likes it too. Yep I’m really thinking a Christmas tree in the master bedroom will become a new tradition as well. There’s nothing like planning a year ahead.
A little pop of green and red are on my night stand too. The sweet petite point Christmas wreath box is a treasured gift I enjoying displaying each year. The top of the box has 2400 stitches per inch. Mind blowing I know!
I also have the book, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. It’s a favorite of mine that I look forward to reading every year.

I loved the fresh appeal of the greenery above the bed. The plaid gave it such a warm element. I thought lots of people should visit your site. I made sure I posted it to my new Pinterest board. I called it “Favored Blogs.” Yours is the first!
Thank you so much for pinning! You have just made my day and I appreciate your thoughtful comments very much. Have a great weekend!
Your bedroom is so beautiful Michelle! Very inspiring. Pinned. Thank you for sharing at Charming Homes and Gardens.
Thank you Kim, the little touch of greenery is fun!
So enjoy a decorated bedroom! Yours is lovely.
I am in Delaware, so I struggle to get to spring once Christmas passes. I tend to say I am decorating for the season. We have many small lighted trees – no trim. I have 2 Santa’s and the 2 nativity to put away following Christmas.
Everything else will be up until after Valentines Day. (Love red and use IT year round.). Our bath is decorated with holly garland and shells. So enjoyed the visit!
Thank you so much Nan! I’m going to do the same this year and enjoy our little green trees with lights a bit longer. Love the idea of decorating with holly and shells. It must be so pretty! Happy Christmas!
I love the greenery! I also love the plaid paired with the striped headboard.
Thank you so much! I made the headboard cover with ticking fabric because it goes with almost everything. 🙂
You’re welcome! Great choice!
Thanks for sharing this beautiful post. As always, I have found things to adapt and enjoy for my own home. I and I must say that the petit point wreath box is simply gorgeous!
Thank you Ellen for your sweet comments! I look forward to unpacking that little box every year, and marvel at the artistry!
I am with you Michelle, on the plaid and ticking – they look amazing together! And the grainsack pillow couldn’t be more perfect. In the past, I have put up a small tree in our bedroom but I haven’t done that in years. Maybe I should add a bit of winter to the bedroom! Pinned!
I thought about putting up a tree as well, but that will have to wait until next year. Maybe I should start planning now. LOL!
