Save to Find It Later!

When it comes to Christmas decorating, I have absolutely no limit! If you’re the same, well, WELCOME (ahah)!

Re Christmas decor, we often focus on the living room, kitchen, or porch but I think the bathroom is equally deserving of a Christmas remodel. After all, we spend quite a bit of time in there!

I always find that even small touches in unexpected places can make the season feel more special. With just a few simple DIY touches, you can transform your bathroom into a cozy, Christmas-themed space. Some of these can even be DIYed which obviously I added on purpose, being a huge fan of DIYs. So let’s have a look at 15 fun and easy ways to add holiday magic to one of the most overlooked rooms in the house!

1. A Christmasy Tray

I love how easy it is to brighten up a space with a simple tray. To DIY this, grab a tray you already have or pick up a basic one. Add a jar filled with pine branches, and scatter some pinecones around it. The pinecones can be real or decorative, and if you want, you can even spray them with a bit of glitter or fake snow to give them a frosted look.

Place the tray on your bathroom counter or shelf, and you’ll instantly have a natural, rustic vibe that screams holiday cheer. This look adds a touch of nature and makes your bathroom feel festive without being over the top.

2. Add color With Berry Branches

A vase filled with berry branches is a simple yet effective way to bring a pop of Christmas color into your bathroom. I usually look for faux berry branches that can last through the season.

Grab a basic vase, something clear or gold works well, and fill it with red berry branches. The red berries against green leaves create a beautiful contrast that instantly brightens the space.

It’s the perfect touch of festive greenery without needing to do much. Plus, it’s easy to move around if you decide to switch up your decor throughout the season.

3. Add Jars Spelling “XMAS”

For a clever and festive twist, use four jars to store your cotton pads and Q-tips, each with a letter on the front spelling out “XMAS.” To DIY this, take small jars and use stickers or stencils to add the letters to each one.

Arrange them on your counter or shelf, and not only are you organizing your bathroom essentials, but you’re also adding a fun, playful holiday touch. I find that little details like this are what really tie a room’s theme together, and this is such an easy way to do it.

4. Add Red and White Christmas Decor on Shelves

If you have shelves in your bathroom, why not turn them into a festive display? You can use red and white Christmas decorations like small trees, Nordic houses, and little white figurines to brighten up the space.

I always recommend choosing pieces that are lightweight and easy to move around. The red and white color scheme brings in that classic Christmas feel, and by adding a few small decorative items, your shelves will pop with festive cheer.

5. Add A Wooden Sign that Says “Ho Ho Ho, Really Got To Go”

Humor is a great way to make any room feel more welcoming, and adding a wooden sign with the phrase “Ho Ho Ho, Really Got To Go” is the perfect way to do that in your bathroom. I like placing signs like this on a small shelf or hanging them above the toilet.

6. Add A Wooden Sign that Says “Be Merry, In The Bowl You Pee”

Here’s another fun and cheeky sign that brings a lighthearted touch to the bathroom: “Be Merry, In The Bowl You Pee.”

You can find wooden signs like this online or make your own with a bit of wood and paint. I love how these signs add a playful twist to the decor and always get a chuckle from guests. Place it on a bathroom shelf or near the toilet for maximum effect.

7. Add A Wooden Sign that Says “He Sees You When You’re Pooping”

For those who love a good laugh, a sign that says “He Sees You When You’re Pooping” is a hilarious way to bring some humor into your bathroom Christmas decor. I always think it’s fun to include playful elements in unexpected places, and this sign is perfect for that.

8. Add Cute Fluffy Gnomes on Shelves

Fluffy Christmas gnomes are one of the easiest and cutest ways to decorate your bathroom shelves. These little guys bring a lot of personality to the space and are simple to arrange.

Place a couple of gnomes on your bathroom shelves or around the countertop to add a whimsical, holiday touch. I love how they instantly make the room feel cozier and more festive.

9. Add A Golden Vase And Copper Bell Style

A golden vase filled with pine branches and a copper bell is a stylish way to brighten up your bathroom. To DIY this, use a simple gold vase or spray paint one you already own. Fill it with pine branches, real or faux, and tuck in a small copper bell for an added festive touch.

I like how this combination of metallic and natural elements brings warmth and elegance to the room without overpowering the space. It’s perfect for countertops or even windowsills.

10. Add A Pine Branches Around the Bathroom Mirror

Adding pine branches around your bathroom mirror is a simple way to bring Christmas greenery into the space. Just drape the branches along the edges of the mirror and secure them with clear tape or small hooks.

I find that this trick adds a fresh, festive feel to the bathroom without taking up any countertop space. It’s an easy, DIY way to make the bathroom mirror a focal point of your Christmas decor.

11. Add A Jar with Candy Canes

A jar filled with candy canes is a quick and easy way to add Christmas color to your bathroom. I usually grab a clear jar and fill it with classic red and white candy canes.

It’s a fun, festive touch that’s easy to put together and looks great on countertops or shelves. Plus, it’s practical: you can grab a candy cane whenever you feel like it!

12. Add A Tiered Tray with Christmas Decorations on Countertop

A tiered tray filled with Christmas decorations is a great way to display a variety of festive items. You can fill each tier with mini trees, ornaments, pinecones, or small Christmas figurines.

To DIY, use a tray you already have or pick one up at a home store, then decorate each tier with festive pieces. This setup adds layers to your decor and keeps things organized while still looking festive.

13. Add A Tray with Winter-Scented Candles and Christmas Farm Truck Decoration

To DIY this tray, choose a few winter-scented candles, like cinnamon, pine, or vanilla, and arrange them on a tray. Add a small Christmas farm truck decoration to complete the look.

I love using trays to keep things tidy while still making the space feel festive. The candles add a cozy scent, while the farm truck adds a fun, decorative touch that ties the whole room together.

14. Change Towels to Red and Green

One of the easiest ways to bring Christmas into your bathroom is by swapping out your regular towels for red and green ones.

These bold colors instantly brighten the space and tie your bathroom into the rest of your holiday decor. I always find that small changes like this make a big difference in how festive a room feels.

15. Add a Green and Red Rug

A green and red rug is the perfect finishing touch for your bathroom Christmas decor. It adds warmth and color to the room, making it feel cozy and festive.

I like choosing a soft, comfortable rug that fits the space and ties together all the other decor elements. It’s a small change, but it makes a big impact.
