The best wood wallpaper for peel-and-stick home decor

How nice is it to see the natural lines of wood grain? Wood can be a relaxing design choice, but it isn’t always practical. A simpler option could be a wood wallpaper, designed to apply to your walls or surfaces and then be removed when you need a change. And with our top favorites for wood grain wallpapers, you’ll be on your way to that rustic design you dream about.

If you have the time to install wood accents, that’s wonderful. For many of you, that option isn’t on the list quite yet. Wallpaper can give the look of wood without giving you sawdust headaches or tearing into your rental walls. Make a dramatic statement instead of a wood grain wallpaper and start with the ones on our list.

Christmas decor can be garish and overwhelming for minimalists. The vivid colors, decorative clutter, and surplus of holiday ornaments clash with the minimal aesthetic.

This year, celebrate the holidays with the minimalist scheme of your dreams. Whether you’re looking for color palette inspiration or overall design ideas, this is how to decorate for Christmas.

Choose a neutral color palette
One of the most important aspects of pulling off a successful minimal Christmas setup in your home is nailing the color palette. Traditional Christmas color palettes can be too busy in minimal homes.

As Christmas nears and holidays encourage us to deck the halls, you may be wondering what to do with your coffee table. It’s easy to add pieces that are too big and make the space feel clunky. Or, you add something too small, which makes your coffee table feel bland and empty. Here are some of the best Christmas decor ideas to add to your coffee table that honors the season while maintaining a modern feel.

Try a simple wood bowl filled with ornaments
Modern home design favors the sleek and simple, so this year, take a cue from the modern book and use a simple wood bowl for your decor. Place a wooden bowl in the center of the coffee table and fill it with stunning gold and silver ornaments for a gentle yet elegant look. This is best done on a glass coffee table.

For a more rustic look, layer two placemats beneath the bowl and swap out the ornaments for pine cones.
