Plaid Christmas Bedding, Pajamas, and Decor
Christmas looks good in plaid. Tartans and colorful checks bring pattern to holiday bedding, pajamas, and decor, with designs ranging from bold and bright to rich and traditional.
Christmas Plaid Is Made for Mixing
Plaid is a natural companion to other Christmas patterns. Its intersecting lines add structure, while individual colors create connections to bold florals and botanicals, playful winter animals, and simple solids elsewhere in the room. On the bed, try a plaid sheet or sham beneath a more expressive holiday quilt or duvet cover, or reverse the balance and let a larger-scale plaid speak for itself.
The same approach works beyond bedding. Plaid table linens can ground decorative dishes and centerpieces, while stockings, ornaments, and gift bags don’t need to repeat the exact same check to belong together. Christmas Eve brings another chance to mix checks, this time with pajamas for the whole family. Look for a shared red, green, blue, or neutral hue across different plaids and prints, but let the patterns vary.
