Before we can even get into decorating our coffee table for Christmas, you need to have a good coffee table bowl that will fit in for the Winter and Christmas time.
These bowls are a must-have year round, including Christmas time, because for every season you can put in different things.
If you aren’t sure what type of bowl to get, a safe and chic option is always wood. Wood bowls are classy, timeless, and fit in every home aesthetic from boho to mid-century modern to rustic.

4. Garlands
Most people usually only think of putting garlands on fire mantels and wreaths and if they were to put them on the table it’s usually as centerpieces for the dining table.
BUT, garlands are great to put on your coffee table, too!
One of the easiest ways to do this without it being too in your face is to stuff your coffee table bowl with garlands and then maybe putting ornaments or other festive decor pieces in the middle.
You can find pre-lit garlands or garlands with pine cones already in them and that’s a great option too.
Check out these garlands that would look great as Christmas coffee table decor:
- Evergreen Christmas Garland with Pine Cones – $35.97
- Christmas Garland – $18.23

5. Ornaments
If you have some extra ornaments left over after decorating your Christmas tree, a great way to use them is to make them Christmas coffee table decor pieces!
You can put the ornaments in a large bowl or if you think that would be too much, you can fill the bowl with garlands and then place some ornaments in the center to fill out any gaps.
You could even have them lain across your table on a flatter bowl and put tall candles in between them so that it’s subtlety festive.
Using ornaments as Christmas coffee table decor is great to use up all your ornaments and make your whole home feel super festive and welcoming.
