Decorate Countertop For Christmas

Besides all the Christmas activities like a gift exchange, making handicrafts or wishes cards, and living room decoration you do every single year, you can do more than that for your family. Your parents would be more than surprised to see what you can do with the messy kitchen.

Decorating your kitchen countertop together is an exciting and joyous idea too to deepen the relationship bond with your siblings who only come back once a year for this festival of warmth, colours and lights.

Some people prefer to dump everything in the drawer so that the countertop looks neat, but that is definitely not the way to decorate it. It is not a good idea too to have all your electrical appliances and utensils up on the countertop, as they will end up having a space battle. We know that it is not practical to hide or display all of the items.

There are ways to arrange your kitchen essentials while making good use of the surface area you have. If you have a huge countertop to spare, learn to use the area wisely.

Unless your countertop is perfectly sealed or resistant to stain, there are a few tips to remove the stubborn dirt. Before you start styling the countertop, do make sure you clean up those greasy stains and smudges gently.

To protect the surface of your countertop, wet the dirt with warm water and leave it for 15 minutes before mopping. You can then let the surface dry by itself or with an absorbent towel. After the countertop is ready, it is time to begin the mission.

Plant

Wreaths and Christmas tree are significant plants for Christmas. But they might be too large to have as a countertop decoration. As time goes by, people also start to be innovative with plants in this festive.

Some people like to style their countertops with the small seasonal plants such as 3 Layers of Luck, White Marble Pothos, Guardian Angel Tree and Foxy Fall Kalanchoe as the new trend. Add some colourful ornaments on the plant to beautify it – glitter balls, bells and gingerbread man for instance.

Cooking utensils

Depending on the surface material, select the suitable utensils to display to make them a part of your kitchen countertop decoration. Placing large utensils in a vase will be easily accessible and contributes to the room’s style while serving a practical purpose.

When decorating with utensils, material and colour are the keys to achieving the design you want. Metals like gold, coppers and stainless steel work great with granite, marble, or quartz. Wood surface matches well with plain ornaments.
