CHRISTMAS DECORATE WITH ME 2026 🎄 3 ROOMS BEFORE & AFTER + STYLING NEW DECOR .

Hey guys, welcome or welcome back. My name is Sissy and in today's video, I'm kicking off my very first Christmas decorating video for 2026. So stick around as I decorate our primary bedroom, en suite bathroom, and guest bedroom for Christmas. I absolutely love a good before and after, so here are a few before clips and once I'm done decorating, I'll share an after. I'm so looking forward to sharing the dramatic transformations as I saw some beautiful new Christmas decor in real time. Plus, make sure to stick around until the very end because I'm also unboxing and styling a brand new rug from Wayfair that completely changes the vibe of our family room. So I hope you enjoyed this one, and if so, please remember to like, subscribe if you're new, comment, and share.

As always, my supervisor is on duty with me today, though as you can see, he's mostly just slacking off. Every so often, he'll make a run for it with something clamped in his mouth. Fortunately, he's smart enough to deliver his loot to Dad, who promptly returns it to me. Last year, I purchased this 7 1⁄2-foot Grand Duchess Twinkling Balsam for a Christmas Tree from the Home Depot. After setting it up again, I was happy to see it's just as pretty as last year. I especially love that it doesn't require a lot of fluffing, which makes setup quick and easy. After placing these AAA batteries in the remote, we'll store the box in my decor closet and finish the garland I started DIYing last night. By the way, I prefer storing my Christmas trees in their original boxes rather than a tree bag, because the box fits perfectly in my decor closet and takes up a lot less space. Here, I'm using the exact same garland from last year, but I've enhanced it with additional cedar and cedar berry stems. And instead of just sticking them in, I used fasteners to hold them securely in place. I also made a last-minute decision to change the ribbon color on this wreath to match the red tones I'm focusing on for this year's Christmas decor. Also added pine cones and whiteberry picks to this garland, along with some extra whiteberry picks for the wreath. And instead of the fireplace mantle, I decided to hang the garland on the large mirror in our bedroom because I have something different planned for the fireplace. Last night I attached four suction cups to this mirror to hold the garland because the command strips I originally placed on the wall didn't work. And although this nine foot garland was too short for this mirror, I'm so happy with the results. Folks. mirror, I also added a suction cup to this glass frame wall art to hold the wreath. This cozy cloud quilt is from Pottery Barn, along with the duvet cover and decorative pillow covers you're about to see in a minute. I absolutely love the weight of it, so instead of placing it on top of this duvet cover, like I usually do with my quilts, I decided to put it directly on top of the flat sheet. And with the colder weather, it has definitely kept us incredibly warm at night. When choosing decorative pillow covers, I originally went with something completely different. But after playing around with a few different colors, I settled on these. And although they're darker in color, they fit the overall look of this bed perfectly. Next, we're adding a little bit of Christmas decor to our en suite bathroom. I decided to reuse the same fluted metal vases that I use when decorating our fireplace mantel for fall, but I swapped out the florals. This time I'm using these gorgeous green berry stamps that I ordered from Etsy back in the spring. Decorating the ledge behind the tub, I used a new Christmas print from Amazon framed in a piece from Hobby Lobby, and I paired it with an old Christmas tree from Joanne's Fabrics. And to add a little color, I wrapped some velvet ribbon around the frame and finished it with a bow. For decorating the guest bedroom for Christmas, I wanted to remove this faux olive tree to free up some space. And here are a few before clips, and once the room is fully styled for the holidays, I'll share the afters. If you've been following my channel for a while, you know I love to thoroughly clean my spaces before decorating them. So let's give this dresser a quick wipe down, then we'll pick out the perfect art print to go above the headboard. All of these art prints are from Amazon, and I love adding a few new ones to my collection each year. And instead of a traditional Christmas scene, I decided to go with a winter landscape this time, especially since this DIY swag hides most of the print anyway. This is a new decor piece I found on clearance at Target. I'm going to style it using five of these very stamps that I ordered off of Etsy this This past spring. Across from it, I'm using a riser to elevate this lamp so I can stack three of my favorite decor books vertically next to it. And to balance out the look, I'm going to add three more decor books horizontally on the opposite side. Along with a twisted wire easel from Michaels, I added this candle holder from Target and topped it with this cider and cinnamon scented candle In a tall glass cloche, which are also from Target. This is one of the art prints I chose earlier in a frame from Hobby Lobby. And on the opposite side, I added this glass display box and a glass match cloche next to it. And they're both from Amazon. And I finished the look with one of the branches that had fallen off. In order to add a little more color to this space, I placed this floral decor pillow cover from Etsy in an old wire basket that I think I found at the at home store. Here I'm using two of the six foot pine and pine cone garlands from Michael's and I twisted them together to get a fuller look. And later I'm going to accent the garland with three different colors of ribbon I picked up from Hobby Lobby last year. Last night I washed this today cover and insert and completely forgot that they were still in the dryer. Now that they're out I'm adding one of my favorite quilts and a chunky knit throw to To style this bed for Christmas. By the way the sheets are from Bed Bath and Beyond but the Tempur-pedic pillows you'll see in a minute are from Mattress Firm. And later on I'm going to add two decorative pillow covers I found on Etsy paired with inserts from Amazon. Next I'm adding some ceramic Christmas village houses from Pottery Barn in three different sizes. Unfortunately, they're no longer available online, but I was lucky enough to score a larger one on clearance while shopping at the Pottery Barn outlet last week. And once the last tea light is added, I'll share some before and after views of our decorated guest bedroom for Christmas. This garland is similar to the one I placed on the mirror in our primary bedroom earlier. But when DIYing this one I chose to add a darker color of berry picks as well as some additional artificial berry stems all from Hobby Lobby. Love the look of an asymmetrical garland on the fireplace but it definitely requires strategic hook placement to stay secured. So I ended up using four five pound command hooks on each end and thankfully it worked perfectly. I've had this faux fur star in our family for years, and each year, I like placing it on the Christmas tree in our bedroom as a tree topper. I'm also going to share some faux wreaths that are a family heirloom, and we'll display them as I have in the past on the doors in our en suite bath. To decorate this fireplace mantel, I'm using some of my favorite decor books and some old bookends that I've had for years. I also added a budget-friendly easel from Michaels and topped it with some artwork from Amazon and a frame that I wrapped with some ribbon from Hobby Lobby. Next, I added these bookends that I found on clearance at Pottery Barn last year. And on the opposite side, I placed a Santa bus that's new to me this year. And next to it, an old pine cone from Michaels. To complete the look, I added additional artwork from Michael's after Christmas sale last year and sprinkled in a few of the cedar branches that had fallen off the garland earlier. Next we'll add some Christmas stockings to the fireplace along with some jingle bells that I DIY'd last year. After adding the bells and burgundy ribbon, I felt the red and beige stocking no longer fit the color scheme. So I switched it with this brown one and was very happy with the change. And to finish decorating this fireplace for Christmas, I added some warm white Christmas lights from Michaels, which has nine different modes and a timer. Before decorating the Christmas tree in our primary bedroom, I need to open up these paper ornaments that I found on clearance at Walmart last year for less than a dollar a box. And along with these, I'm also adding some additional paper honeycomb ornaments from Amazon that I've had for years. As you can see, my supervisor takes his holiday decorating duties very seriously. Every year, he closely supervises me putting up the ornaments, only to fall fast asleep five minutes later. I'm filling the large open spaces with these big ornaments before decorating the branches with the smaller ones. And every so often, my supervisor would wake up to help for a few minutes before drifting right back to sleep. It did take over an hour to place all of these ornaments on the tree. That's because I was trying to spread out the nine different colors while filling in all the open spaces. And along with using the larger ornaments to do this, I also added in some pine cones and faux florals. By the way, the burgundy faux florals shown earlier are from Michael's after Christmas sale last year. And all of these sprays are from Hobby Lobby. Unlike last year, I'm also adding in some of the burgundy sprays as well as keeping the brown ones in here because in my opinion, they help balance out all of the brighter colors. Next, we'll turn on all of the Christmas lights and take a look at the before and afters of our decorated bedroom, en suite bath, and guest bedroom for Christmas with some Christmas decorating, I'm also unboxing and styling a new rug from Wayfair that completely changed the vibe of our family room. But first I needed to remove the old one and my youngest arrived just in time to help. I've been wanting to change out this rug for over a year now because with Max tracking in all of the dirt, it's hard to keep clean. So this new rug which was 64% off at the time of purchase and is darker in color, I figured it would require less cleaning than the old one. I wasn't too happy with the color because I felt that it clashed with the colors of the fireplace, but I would love to know what you think. We've also been wanting to get rid of our 10-foot Christmas tree, so after discussing it with Hubby, we agreed to donate it to a family member and she was so excited to receive it. So later you'll see our youngest taking it to the garage so we can load it up later. Made it this far in the video I want to thank you for watching Sissy Spaces and as always if you enjoyed today's video please like and hype it, subscribe if you're new, comment and share.
