6 Holiday Decorating Trends You’ll See Everywhere This Season, According to Etsy

The holidays are fast approaching, and for those needing decor inspiration, the 2025 Holiday Trend Guide from Etsy is here to help. The Etsy Trend Edit gives holiday enthusiasts a peek at the gifts and decorating ideas that will define the season. From tree ornaments to chic candelabras, here are six breakthrough trends that will dictate holiday decor this winter.

1. Nonna Holiday

This trend brings the warmth of grandma’s kitchen into your home. Think embroidered linens, tomato-red accents, and food-centric decor that emphasize family, coziness, and tradition. Whether it’s gifting hand-stitched red gingham tablecloths or displaying ceramic pasta bowls as decor, Nonna Holiday is all about creating a space that feels lived-in and heartwarming. To embrace this trend, layer vintage kitchenware on open shelves and display embroidered linens at mealtimes.

2. Supper Club

Dinner parties are getting a facelift. Etsy reports searches for table settings are up 1,000% as entertainers take cues from polished social media spreads. Supper Club is about crafting memorable, immersive holiday meals. Polished tablescapes, statement serveware, and whimsical party touches transform ordinary dinners into elegant events. 

3. Play Haus

Gen Z’s love of unfiltered self-expression is making its mark on the holidays. Play Haus embraces child-like maximalism with candy-bright color palettes, cartoonish ceramics, paper chains, and a touch of chaos. This is perfect for those who want their holiday decor to feel like a celebration in motion rather than a polished set. Play Haus is a reminder that the season can be as whimsical as it is festive. To bring this trend to life, mix quirky ornaments, vibrant table accents, and nostalgic toys into your decorating.

4. Nutcrackercore

For those seeking theatrical glamour, Nutcrackercore delivers escapism through ornate decor. Gilded accents, deep jewel tones, velvet ribbons, and Main Character Energy define this trend. It’s over-the-top and dreamy, perfect for anyone who wants their home to feel like a winter wonderland straight from a holiday ballet stage. This trend encourages us to fully embrace the magic of the season.

5. Gothmas

The shadowy side of winter is having its moment. Inspired by a gothic heroine returning to screens this year, Gothmas celebrates moody magic through black lace, celestial motifs, and mystical accessories. Etsy search data shows gothic wallpaper searches have more than doubled, while solder jewelry searches are up 1,500%. If your style leans mysterious or dramatic, Gothmas is a perfect way to mix traditional cheer with a hint of intrigue.

6. Shiver the Season

Opulence is at the forefront with the Shiver the Season trend, which combines icy jewels, metallic accents, and nautical details for a glamorous, frosty look. Shiver the Season encourages the mixing of metals, like brass, silver, and gold, to create a layered, sparkling look, blending cool tones with glimmering accents.
