My Rustic Glam Farmhouse Christmas Dining Room
Hello everyone and welcome to my rustic glam farmhouse Christmas dining room! This is the first Christmas since I completed the dining room makeover and I’m so excited to share it with you.
This was the first room in the house that I decorated for Christmas this year and it came together very easily. You might recognize many of the decorations that I used in here from last year’s Christmas mantel and the Christmas shelves in my breakfast area.
This wreath is actually the one that I made to use over my mantel last year. I was inspired by one I had seen in a catalog.
I made sure to find a spot for my NOEL Christmas pillow. It’s one of my faves!

My motto this year was “no glitter allowed”, but in the dining room, that rule kind of fell by the wayside as soon as I decided to use this wreath on the mirror above the sideboard. It set the tone for the whole room. But that’s okay since I always try to dress the dining room up a bit. I’m in love with the glittered reindeer and frosted branches!
Across the room, the sideboard and vintage mantel shimmer with burnished gold trees, branches, a wreath and a few glittery houses.
My tree is filled with all sorts of vintage ornaments, plus a few that I purchased last year. Lighted branches fill the top and trailing glitter tape falls naturally down the length of the tree.
The ornaments may be shimmery and glittery, but many of them are nature inspired.
The centerpiece for the table is about as easy as you can get and will be easy to set a table around for dining. I simply folded a frosted pine garland in half and wrapped some of the branches around each other to hold it together. Then I tucked in natural colored faux pine pieces (from picks that I cut apart) and added a few of my vintage silver candle holders. I didn’t bother to polish the tarnish that’s on them as I think it adds to vintage vibe.
Christmas dinner is going to feel so special in my dining room this year!
This is about the last of the glitter that you’ll see in my house this Christmas. The rest of the house looks totally different. I’ll be sharing more soon! When do you start your Christmas decorating?
Sharing at THESE great parties.
I just love all of this! What a cozy way to share your Christmas dinner together!
Beautiful, as always!
i love glitter, but not over the top. Your style is beautiful.
I am so in love with those sweet Putz houses in your dining room! I’ve collected them over the years and just learned how to create them within the past couple of years. I’m obsessed! Merriest of Christmases to you!
This is so pretty…just love the shelf … looking forward to another year of ideas.
What an inviting room! Did you create the lantern board-backer (for lack of a better word coming to me) yourself? If so, do you have any tips for making the lantern holders?
Hi Wendy. Yes, I built the hanging lantern displays myself. You can find the tutorial at this link: http://www.worthingcourtblog.com/diy-hanging-lantern-tutorial/
I love your dining room especially the wreaths and the little houses. Just beautiful.
Smart decorating ideas! Beautiful home. The rustic Christmas decor is perfect rustic farm style.
Love your style! You’ve done a great job transforming your home with farm house style.
Thanks for your ideas. Love your blog!!
Where did you get your dining room table?
Hi Susan. I purchased my table at a local furniture store about thirteen years ago! I don’t know the style name of it, but it is made by Thomasville Furniture. I recently painted the legs of the table when I gave my dining room a makeover. You can read what I did to the table in this blog post: https://www.worthingcourtblog.com/dining-room-before-after/
I love what you have done. It is so pretty and you didn’t use any red, green or plaid. I love this!
Just perfect! So appreciate your sharing this and would love to know where you purchased your burnished gold wreath and other items. I am in love with all things farmhouse style. Merry Christmas. Patti Bishop
Hi Patti. I purchased the gold wreath and small gold mini trees from Ballard Designs. Merry Christmas to you too!
