Rachel is offering up her best seasonal décor tips and tricks, inspired by her love for cozy, inviting interiors, so you can bring holiday warmth and sparkle into every corner of your home.
Create a cozy glow
The season of giving wouldn’t be the same without the warm glow of twinkling lights. They create an ambience and make any area just a little more special.
Intertwine string lights in a single color around garlands or mantles and pair them with a Scentsy Warmer for a beautiful, layered glowing effect. For example, pair blue lights with a Radiant Beams Warmer for winter twilight tableau. Or, wrap silver battery-powered fairy lights among all white ornaments, greenery and an All Is Calm Warmer for a soothing holiday scene.
Be strategic
We’re allowed, encouraged even, to go a bit overboard during the holiday season, from food to fun to décor. Sometimes less is more. Avoid overcrowding key areas like mantles and dining tables. Instead, place a Scentsy Warmer or Diffuser in areas where it takes pride of place without competing with other decorations. Display a Noble & Bright Diffuser on a coffee table or a sideboard for a festive focal point.
Tip: Keep kitchen counters clear of decorations when possible. You need that for cooking and day-to-day living. Instead, consider placing a piece, like the Nutcracker King Warmer in an entryway along with a bit of greenery or pinecones to greet guests with holiday fragrance and up the cheer factor.
Holiday jewels
Jewel tones — rich reds, greens, purples — are a holiday décor staple. And with good reason! They bring a feeling of richness to any setting. Incorporate this traditional décor by choosing a Scentsy Warmer with bold colors and shine to match the aesthetic. The classic styling and colors of the Merry Little Christmas Warmer make a great match. Then pair it with other jewel-toned accessories like velvet pillows and faux-fur throws to give a room a luxurious feel.
Hot and cold
If jewel tones aren’t ringing your jingle bells, try a frosty theme that captures winter’s chill with a snug twist. The key is to balance icy colors with cozy textures. Scentsy’s Blue Frost Warmer pairs wonderfully with winter white knit, chenille or faux-fur blankets for a great balance of chic style with holiday warmth.
Go with a group
Still not sure where to start? Create themed groupings! Rachel suggests keeping like items together for a cohesive look — snowmen, miniature Christmas trees or even poinsettias arranged as a tablescape create an eye-catching scene. Try placing your Warmer next to themed items, like the WB Holiday Marquee – Scentsy Warmer next to fun figurines of a certain very tall elf or leggy table lamp! Make Cousin Eddie’s RV – Scentsy Warmer just a little bit fancier with some miniature bottle-brush trees and vintage ornaments for a nostalgic display.
Fragrant finish
Fragrance ties your holiday décor together. The right Scentsy fragrance will complement your home’s vibe and add to the overall merriment. Bakery and spice fragrances like Ginger Cookie Crunch and Salted Caramel Toffee evoke memories of holidays past and the joy of treats with family. Woods fragrances like Very Snowy Spruce and Winter Twilight bring the essence of crisp outdoors inside your snug abode. Citrus and fruity fragrances like Holiday Market and Sparkling Spiced Citrus celebrate the season’s brightness.
