Molly Ringwald found the hack to achieve a festive look while maintaining a chic minimalist appearance in the home during Christmas, and her fans can take a cue from her style this year. The actress showed off her decor last Christmas, featuring a cozy and timeless look that many will love to replicate.
Her two-toned living room was moderately lit, putting attention on her natural Christmas tree with the shining star on top. Molly decorated the tree and its surroundings with gold and red ornaments while keeping the rest of the room free from embellishment.

Designer Claire Garner made the process easier for those willing to adopt Molly’s decor by explaining how the mother of three achieved the look. She noted that it is best to focus on key areas like the tree, the fireplace, the dining table, and the door rather than the whole room.
She also highlighted Molly’s impressive choice of tree, which came in dark green to add some nature to the setting. Garner emphasized the importance of a classy centerpiece for the dinner table, while also maintaining space for meals and discussions.
Natural is better
While there are many artificial decoration options to choose from, Garner thinks it is best to consider natural or natural-looking elements like garlands and wreaths made from eucalyptus, cedar, or pine. She also suggested arranging pine cones in a bowl and adding pillar candles to subtly light up the room.
It is also best to stick with neutral or simple color bases to enable vibrant festive colors like gold, red, green, or silver to stand out. Accessories like candle holders, tree ornaments, stockings, wreaths, utensils, and the like should come in colorful schemes, while the paint, furniture, and draperies can tone things down.
