A Cozy Country Christmas: Decorating For The Holidays

So what design elements make up a country Christmas home?

Patterns such as plaid, buffalo check and gingham
Heavier fabrics, like burlap and muslin
Bringing the outdoors inside, with wood, twigs, branches, pine cones and of course, pine garland (preferably the real deal)
Woodland creatures--bears, moose, deer, etc. (preferably NOT the real deal)
White twinkle lights, candles and lots of natural lighting
