For the most discerning design enthusiast, the holiday spirit extends far beyond jolly songs and perfectly wrapped presents: The end of the year also provides a perfect opportunity to swath your home in lush strands of garland, flocked finishes, and charming accessories. A caveat? One false design move and your home might appear more kitschy than cheerful. But, thanks to Arhaus’ 2022 Holiday Collection, it’s possible to create a space that’s fetchingly festive, not flashy.
“Nothing compares to this time of year, when the sights, scents, and sounds of the holidays spark wonder each and every day,” says John Reed, co-founder and CEO of Arhaus. “Whether you’re enjoying traditions or making new memories with family and friends, our collection invites you to deck the halls for these special moments, creating spaces that radiate cozy warmth all throughout the season.”
From restocked seasonal favorites to new arrivals, Arhaus proves that forward-thinking design and impeccable craftsmanship can exist in holiday décor. Read on for a look at the best pieces from the holiday collection, all of which deserve a spot on Santa’s nice list.
Santa Nutcracker
Arhaus reimagined a holiday classic with thoughtful, artisanal touches, partnering with a family-owned workshop in Seiffen, Germany to create this authentic, hand-stained wooden nutcracker. The semi-glossed figurine is accessorized with a burlap sack, an acrylic fleece, and faux fur trim for the perfect touch of whimsy.
Sierra Tic Tac Toe
Unleash your competitive spirit with one of Arhaus’ handcrafted games. Made by artisans in Mexico, this sustainably sourced tic tac toe board uses bleached reclaimed wood, metal inlaid squares, and handmade metal game pieces. Win or lose, this option is poised to bring friends and family together in style this holiday season.
Skier Incense Smoker
Incense is a great way to bring a multi-sensory experience to your home this season. If you want to dial up the style, consider picking up a spirited smoker from Arhaus. A family-owned workshop in Lauingen, Germany made this hand-stained skier, who is dressed to impress in a faux fur-lined trapper hat and matching ski set. His agape mouth offers a hint of character—not to mention a convenient spot to emit fresh, fragrant smoke.
Wooden Chainsaw Tree
For rustic holiday décor that strays away from the norm, look to Arhaus’ Wooden Chainsaw Tree. Hand-carved in Mexico, this nature-inspired figurine provides an abstract take on the seasonal staple, featuring kiln-dried, reclaimed wood and moody black finish.
Tabletop Deer Candle Holder
Think of the Tabletop Deer Candle Holder from Arhaus as the perfect finishing touch for any festive table setting. Made with cast iron aluminum in India—and polished off with an antiqued brass finish—this new arrival can rival the gorgeous flame it holds.
Village Advent Calendar
Countdown to the most wonderful time of the year with the Village Advent Calendar. Crafted from a mix of materials including wood and metal, this calendar has 24 designated drawers to hide sweet treats and surprises as you get closer to December 25—or any special day that’s drawing near. The intricate village scene is illuminated with LED lights, giving the scene an inviting glow.
Whether you stick with the seasonal favorites or opt for a trendy take on the classics, Arhaus is here to ensure your holiday season is merry and bright.
