I just had my first annual favorite things party last night for the ladies in my new neighborhood and thought it fitting to share with you today my blue and silver Christmas kitchen home tour.
Of course, since this room opens into the breakfast room and living room the holiday color scheme from our Christmas living room was carried into this space too. You can check out my Christmas Living Room tour and Christmas entryway/front porch home tours to get caught up!
Today’s post is just going to be a lot of eye candy so you can see all the little holiday details I’ve added in here.
I am loving having such a big kitchen to cook in this season and it is definitely the heart of our home. So I hope you enjoy my Christmas kitchen home tour!

Quick Glance
- Carrying one color palette from room to room (blue and silver here) creates visual flow without extra effort.
- Fresh greenery like bay leaf wreaths and cedar garlands adds both beauty and real fragrance to a kitchen.
- Small details, such as mini wreaths on barstools and candles on flat wreath rings, do more heavy lifting than large statement pieces.
- Mercury glass bowls, bottle brush trees, and velvet ribbon are easy, reusable swaps that transition naturally from fall to winter.
- Sourcing from a mix of stores like HomeGoods, Home Depot, and Tuesday Morning keeps the look elevated without a big budget.
- Keeping the island simple and low-profile makes the kitchen feel festive without losing counter function.
I am still living with the soft blue that was painted on the kitchen island and fireplace and plan to tackle that project in the new year.
At times it reads a mint green and I just do not love that. During bright daylight, it is this soft subtle blue that is so pretty.
Also, you can see below a sneak peek of some changes in the breakfast room! I will be doing the full reveal of that space and what we did on Wednesday.
As you can see, I used a lot of greenery pieces to accent within the kitchen.
Bay Leaf Wreath | Marble Cutting Board | Large Wood Cutting Board | Marble Utensil Holder | Wood Tray
I added this live bay leaf to our kitchen hood and it smells incredible! I love that it is beautiful and functional.
I have been using the leaves in my cooking this season. I love having a fresh wreath in this space!
I used a lot of juniper berry stems and garlands in the kitchen and living room.
The stems are so pretty clustered in a little white vase on our stove.
I got these darling little white houses at Tuesday Morning this year and used them in our entryway too.
The windows actually light up! I placed one here in our kitchen on a cake plate with a clipping from a cedar garland I got at Home Depot.
I kept my island simple this year and really kept what I had there from this fall. I just changed out the pumpkins for some bottle brush trees and a mercury glass one.
I added my juniper berry stems to my vase and clustered ornaments in a little mercury glass bowl with velvet ribbons tied to their ends.

Barstools | Black Lanterns | Mini Juniper Wreaths | Grey Ribbon
My beautiful new barstools got a little holiday spirit too!
I found these darling mini juniper berry wreaths local but I found them online for you HERE too!
They have these sweet little blueberries on them that match the other juniper berry stems and garland I used this year.
I shared on IG Stories how I secured them but in a nutshell, I used thin wire and wrapped it around the back of the wreath and woven through the back of the barstool.
Then tied the wire together. I then tied on some of my leftover grey ribbon from our Christmas tree to match them to the rest of the decor.
Here I used more of the juniper berry wreaths and laid it flat then placed my candle in the middle. Then I clustered some tea lights and another mercury glass candle.
These peppermint sticks are our absolute favorite and I found tons of them at Homegoods this year! So I put them in a little apothecary jar tied with a little velvet ribbon and a fresh cedar cutting.
Marble Tray | Winter Forest Soap & Dish Soap | Scrub Brush
I love getting seasonal soaps for our kitchen to enjoy and this year I got this winter forest set. It smells like fresh pine! They are so yummy and currently on sale.
And that is it my friends! I hope you loved this little Christmas kitchen home tour and all the sources for this space are below!
Things to Know
- A Christmas kitchen home tour usually highlights how seasonal decor works with the kitchen’s existing colors, finishes, cabinetry, and overall design.
- The kitchen’s main focal points, such as the island, range hood, sink, open shelves, and windows, often become natural areas for Christmas decorations.
- A consistent color palette helps connect greenery, wreaths, ribbons, textiles, ornaments, and other seasonal pieces throughout the kitchen.
- Christmas kitchen decor should leave countertops, appliances, sinks, and food preparation areas functional and easy to access.
- Greenery can add natural texture through mini wreaths, garlands, branches, and small trees without requiring large decorative displays.
- Everyday kitchen items such as cutting boards, dishes, cake stands, cookbooks, and serving pieces can become part of the Christmas styling.
- Seasonal textiles, including dish towels, runners, rugs, and chair cushions, can introduce Christmas colors and patterns without taking up counter space.
- Kitchen Christmas decor can coordinate with nearby dining and living areas to create a cohesive holiday look throughout an open-concept home.
Frequently Asked Questions
What color palette works best for a Christmas Kitchen Home Tour?
Blue, silver, and green is a surprisingly cohesive combination that photographs beautifully and feels fresh rather than traditional. The cool tones of greenery and silver accents pair naturally with blue cabinetry and other neutral kitchen finishes.
How do I decorate kitchen barstools for the holidays without damaging them?
Use thin wire threaded through the back of a small wreath and woven through the barstool frame, then secure it with grey or velvet ribbon for a polished finish. This keeps the wreath secure without adhesives or permanent hardware and makes it easy to remove after Christmas.
Where can I find juniper berry stems and garlands for holiday decorating?
Juniper berry stems are widely available at HomeGoods, Home Depot, craft stores, and online retailers throughout the holiday season. They work well in vases, garlands, wreaths, and other Christmas kitchen arrangements.
What’s the easiest way to add fresh greenery to a kitchen without it drying out too fast?
Hang a live bay leaf wreath above the hood where the warmth from cooking actually slows the drying process, and mist cedar or pine clippings lightly every few days. Keep fresh greenery away from direct sunlight and excessive heat to help it last longer.
How do I keep kitchen holiday decor looking styled without cluttering counter space?
Stick to three or four designated vignette spots rather than spreading small objects across every available surface. Keep frequently used work areas clear and concentrate decorations around less-used corners, windows, shelves, or other perimeter spaces.
I am obsessed with your kitchen!!! Where did you buy your oven hood cover? I’ve come across a bunch and this was my absolute favorite! Also is it a 48inch hood? Thanks in advance?
