Deck the Halls: Unique Holiday Decor Treasures

The most wonderful time of year is just around the corner! Before we know it, our schedules will be filled with shopping, sending cards, and of course, holiday parties! There is no doubt that the holidays would have no magic without our spirit, and what better way to ring in the season with fresh, festive decor! Are you ready to deck the halls?

The times I have spent decorating for the holidays with my family are among some of the fondest memories that I will cherish forever. Create new memories this season with new holiday decor from artisans all over the world!

For the tree

Let’s start with the most iconic holiday decoration…the Christmas Tree. NOVICA offers everything you need to adorn your tree from top to bottom and keep it looking merry and bright.

Ornaments

For many, ornaments are so much more than decor. They are often collectibles that represent milestones, interests, travel and other important experiences.

Each year as we decorate the tree, my family fondly revisits our ever growing collection of ornaments and the memories that are associated.  In a way, our ornaments represent our legacy. NOVICA has literally hundreds of hand-crafted treasures for your tree that are sure to resonate in some way.

Garland

Often overlooked, a garland is the perfect versatile decoration. It can be hung on the walls, over doors/archways or among your ornaments on the tree.

I love this hand sewn option from Chinni Swamy of India. The patchwork motifs are adorable and the quilted material evokes such a comforting, homey feel.

Tree Skirts

The very foundation of your tree deserves something special and memorable.

My favorites are those from Peruvian artisan, Leonor Quispe. She has several unique designs that will spruce up your home decor whether you want a new set of throw pillows to enjoy year round or a special holiday accent.  Each of her hand-crafted pieces tells a story. What will yours be?

Tree Toppers

For the grand finale…

Top it all off with something special. The right tree topper will add the last bit of “WOW” to an impressive display. This tree star from Rajesh Gehlot from India, with its elegant sequin details, is sure to help you find your way home. Rajesh specializes in holiday decor and his page is worthy of your attention.

Stockings

Now that we’ve gotten your tree “decked out,” let’s talk about where we’re going to put these presents….

Whether you’ve been naughty or nice, NOVICA has the perfect stocking for you! There are so many hand-crafted options in a variety of styles. Everyone in the family is sure to find one perfect for presents…or coal.

Everyday Accents

You can enhance your holiday decor by using elements that are not necessarily intended as such. A pair of red throw pillows or a set of silver candle holders can serve as festive holiday accents and can also be used year round.

Some people feel that their holiday decor isn’t complete without a lovely and spiritual nativity scene on display.  This hand carved set from Juan Licas Coronado is made from Huamanga stone which is similar to alabaster.

Decorating for the holidays is a ritual to be celebrated and NOVICA has everything you need to make your holidays merry and bright. But as we know, holidays are really about celebrating what we have and giving back to those who are not as fortunate. When shopping from NOVICA, you can spread cheer and shop guilt-free at the same time. Each purchase from NOVICA directly supports artisans in remote areas of the world in a way that makes a true difference. Now that’s the *holiday* spirit!
