With festive touches at every turn, it’s beginning to look a lot like the holidays at Jenni’s—and this year’s approach may be her best yet. Whether you prefer to keep things simple and minimal or feel drawn to classic holiday maximalism, her ability to seamlessly incorporate nature in every space is one anyone can get behind. Take note—from timeless mantle décor to an inspired take on the typical tree, Jenni’s got all the holiday home inspo you’ll need.

Bring the Outdoors In

In any season, Jenni’s rule of thumb is as follows: look to nature. Easy to find and easier to maintain, foliage is the simplest way to bring an air of seasonality to any space. Forage in your neighborhood or head to the local farmer’s market or flower shop, and look for varieties like pine, cedar, eucalyptus, or spruce for décor that smells as good as it looks.

Keep to a Color Palette

With the canvas that is her neutral and balanced interior, Jenni’s home is perfectly set for an effortless transition from fall to winter holidays. This year, she’s putting both fresh and dried foliage everywhere—on her mantle, in her tree, and on every side table—and with plenty of greenery coming from these natural elements, a few small touches of festive red are all she needs to complete the scene, from nature-inspired décor to ribbons on the collars of some furry friends.

Expect the Unexpected

In the spirit of the season, Jenni’s leaving no corner unattended to—but, as always, she’s keeping things simple. For an easy yet impactful addition to your holiday home, try a simple, unadorned tree in a nontraditional space like a dining room or guest room. You can also try a tasteful scattering of ornaments on an outdoor tree to go the extra mile without any extra hassle.

“There’s so much inspiration right outside our door. I always look forward to finding new ways to use what I have on hand, and I know my favorite local shops will have anything I might be missing.”
