As a shopping writer, part of my job is to review the Christmas collections that come out each holiday season. I spend hours shopping for wreaths and garlands, ornaments and decorative objects.
The Pottery Barn Christmas Shop is such a breath of fresh air: you've got bronze sculptures, cut glassware, and rustic pine cone garlands, all with an on-trend retro feel. There's even an entire section known as the Gingerbread Shop , populated with pillows, candles, stockings, and serveware that looks good enough to eat.
Give your Christmas decor ideas a vintage twist this year with the Pottery Barn holiday collection. To save you the trouble of scrolling, I've picked out 21 of my favorite finds, including a tree-shaped teak wood cheese board for your holiday hosting and beaded string lights that look like glistening dewdrops.
My 21 favorite finds from the Pottery Barn Christmas Collection
The secret to decorating tastefully for Christmas is to be selective. That's why I spent hours sorting through 1,986 items in the 'New Arrivals' section to bring you durable designs and timeless styles at great prices.
Serveware
Gingerbread Snowflake Stoneware Appetizer Plates - Set of 4
This appetizer plate looks like a brandy snap. Crafted from stoneware and hand-painted for an iced finish, these gingerbread plates would make a real conversation starter.
Christmas in the Country Dinnerware Collection
Collect the set of dinner plates, salad plates, cereal bowls, and mugs. Each piece is hand-painted: mix and match between Christmas trees, snowmen, and reindeer.
Antique Cut Glassware Collection
This glassware collection contains everything you need for holiday hosting, from goblets to champagne flutes to coupe glasses. Keep it classic with red and green or branch out into blue, pink, or white.
Holly Berry Embroidered Cotton/Linen Table Runner
Embroidered with red berries and verdant leaves, this table runner also functions as a festive centerpiece. The cotton-linen blend is ultra-durable: throw the runner straight in the washing machine after Christmas dinner.
Teak Wood Tree Cheese Board
I've got a tree-shaped cheese board that looks just like this one. It only comes out at Christmas, but it brings such a smile to my face during holiday hosting that I think it's worth the spend.
Monique Lhuillier Holiday Bow Place Card Holders - Set of 4
Add a festive flourish to your table settings with these bow-shaped place card holders. You could easily repurpose these little bows for a New Year's party too.
Tree accessories
Lit Mirrored Star Tree Topper
This star-shaped tree topper shines bright. It's lit from within by dozens of energy-efficient fairy lights and lined with mirrored surfaces to capture and reflect the light.
Beaded String Lights
I love the look of these glass beads. It's like glistening dew drops along the tips of your pine tree. Use them to outline an entrance or wrap around a garland to create a unique festive centerpiece.
Gingerbread Felt Ornaments - Set of 6
I like to buy myself a new ornament every festive season. This year, I might make an exception and get six – these little gingerbread men are too cute to separate.
Candle Tree Clips - Set of 3
Last year, I answered the question: ' can you put real candles on a Christmas tree? ' My answer is a firm 'no', but I understand the aesthetic appeal. Get the look with these LED Candle Tree Clips, instead.
Handwoven Vine Tree Collar
Whether you're working with a real Christmas tree or an artificial one, a tree collar helps to hide that unsightly tree stump or stand. I like the natural look of a woven one: it feels like a natural continuation of the tree trunk.
Rustic Forest Tree Skirt
I'm Team Real Tree all the way, but they can be a little high-maintenance when they start to drop their needles. The best way to catch any falling leaves is with a tree skirt. This white cotton piece feels suitably understated.
Wreaths and garlands
Faux Lit Mixed Berries Wreath & Garland
I love the look of a winterberry wreath: it's so quintessentially Christmassy. Complete the look with a matching garland to make a splash over your mantel.
Glitter Pinecone Garland
These glitter-flocked pinecones should add a bit of sparkle to your windowsill or mantel. I like to wind my garland through the banisters to spruce up my Christmas stair decor ideas .
Faux Lit Mixed Greens Wreath & Garland With Bells
Decked out with delicate white lights and interspersed with pine boughs and golden bells, this is just the thing for a white Christmas.
Decorative objects
Handcrafted Ceramic Gingerbread Train
This gingerbread train has the potential to become a real Christmas staple, the sort of piece you bring out every year to hold candy canes or festive favors.
Bronze Sculpted Reindeer
These sweet sculptures come in Small, Medium, and Large. I couldn't resist shopping several: consider buying as many Small reindeer as you have little ones.
Lit Red Berry Orb
I've got big ideas for these red berry orbs. I'd like to suspend a few from the ceiling as Christmas hallway decorations or cluster them together on a console table to create a festive scene.
Throws and pillows
Stewart Plaid Lumbar Pillow
This is the sort of subtly seasonal accent that could work all year round. Shop it with a down feather or down alternative insert, as befits your allergies.
Tree Embellished Shaped Pillow
I love the contrast of materials in this tree-shaped pillow. Faux fur meets natural wooden and metallic beads to bring rustic charm to a luxe look.
Arden Tree Blanket
There are subtle spruce trees in the knitted weave of this super-soft blanket, which comes in camel, cardinal red, or evergreen to suit your aesthetic.
Pottery Barn aren't the only ones getting into the spirit of the season. Magnolia just dropped their 2024 holiday collection : defined by natural textures and neutral hues, these pieces ooze old-school charm.
