Decorating ideas for an inspired Santa-themed entryway.
I pulled together a fun Christmas Santa display for our foyer this year and
absolutely love how it turned out!
In general, tabletop and bookcase decorating are the hardest for me to get
right. I find it much easier to decorated smaller spots, especially for the
holidays.

And it was very pretty! But I wanted to do something a little more
Christmasy this time.
along the bottom and then added some small decor accents like greenery and
pinecones:
It was after I got these letters set up that this theme came to me — I
wanted to do a “Believe in Santa” inspired display.
I had so much fun pulling this together!
On a recent antiquing trip, I found these big brass bells that I laid
throughout the greenery:

I was looking specifically for a standing brass bell to use in the display,
and was thrilled when I came across one while antiquing as well:
up and give it some shine! I used
my favorite brass cleaning method
and it turned out absolutely beautiful!:
I imagine Santa’s bell would be bright and shiny, right? 🙂

is what I printed out for this display.
If you have a great printer, you could easily print this at home.
I print mine at CVS for a few bucks — they always have coupon codes for
discounts too!

versatile and looks great anywhere I put it.

It just wasn’t hitting right for me in that color, so I gave it a little
makeover with some black spray paint:
I liked the brass knob, so I kept it as it was.

and used it to highlight the letters:
What a difference it made! I absolutely love it now.
Santa? The experience of
finding my own letter to Santa Claus
in a book (more than 30 year later) was super special:
It is now one of my most treasured pieces!
Months ago I saw a gorgeous rattan sleigh online (I found mine at Antique
Farmhouse), and thought it was such a unique find.
I ordered it and then everywhere I looked there were wicker sleighs. Haha!
This is an ongoing occurrence with my Christmas decor this year. 😉 They are
very popular this season, for good reason.

I shared a few weeks ago. I used the soft, flowy greenery from that post,
and then nestled in some of the wood and brass bells:

that is a little more rustic but looks to be a similar size.
It all came together so beautifully! We love this sweet Christmas
display:
Oh, I forgot about the cute Santa boots! It got a little busy to include
those on the table, but they look great on the floor too:
I also had one my husband’s old pipes propped on the stack of books, but it
was getting lost on the display. I needed to reel it in a little anyway. 😂
I’m so happy with how this Santa set up came together! I don’t usually do
themed decor, but it’s definitely my favorite Christmas decor ever:
Do you have a theme to your holiday decor?
