Hi Friend!
Our hutch in our dining room is one of the first spots I like to decorate for Christmas. Similar to the open shelves that were in the kitchen of our previous home, I love decorating our hutch with tiny bottle brush trees, filling bowls with ornaments, and tucking in winter greenery throughout for the holiday season. This year I decided to add in my tiny white ceramic houses to create a Christmas village look. I love this look for the holidays, and can’t wait for you to see it!
Come and see ~

I scored this beautiful oak hutch off of Facebook Marketplace a few years ago. It sits on the back wall in our dining room, and I love to decorate it seasonally. My go-to’s when it comes to decorating it for Christmas are tiny bottle brush trees, and filling the bowls with ornaments. However this year I incorporated some of my white ceramic houses I’ve collected over the years (mostly from Target!) and I love how it created this Christmas village look.

I first used these houses to create a Christmas Village on the buffet in our previous dining room, which you can see HERE. Over the years I’ve used these houses in different places around our home when I decorate for the holidays, but decided this year to mostly use them on our hutch. And I love how it turned out.



I placed the houses around my hutch on cake stands, in pairs, or grouped together with tiny trees. I sprinkled tiny ornaments around the houses once they were in place to help add a little more of a Christmas feel. It was such a fun way to decorate the hutch this year, it just might be my favorite look yet!


I love filling trays and bowls with ornaments and sprigs of greenery, and I incorporated this look in my hutch, with some of my everyday serving pieces. It’s a great way to highlight a favorite ornament you have, that can otherwise sometimes get lost when placed on the tree.

Hi Bre, I have admired your hutch (and whole new lovely house) for a while now. Did you ever get a chance to post your how-to for refinishing your hutch? I’d love to recreate the same finish on mine. Thanks so much!
Thank you so much Jennifer!! I haven’t shared the post yet, but I have it all ready to publish to kick off the new year! I was waiting until after the holidays
Merry Christmas!
Amazing! Can’t wait to check it out! Merry Christmas!!!
Beautiful contrast of the variegated oak grain against the solid white of the houses – my favorite look too! Happy Holidays!
Thank you so much Trish!! I think it’s safe to say I will definitely be repeating this look next year as well
Happy Holidays!
