- I'm so excited to share with y'all my 2023 Christmas decor theme. Join me as I decorate my house for Christmas! I've done a several different themes throughout the year--candyland, gingerbread house, white winter wonderland, and last year's all pink theme. It's a challenge to come up with a fresh new theme each year, but I'm up for it!
This year the theme is "Ski Lodge" and maybe you've seen a sneak peak on m tiktok and ig stories.

Comment your ideas for next year's theme...(I've already done candyland, gingerbread, winter wonderland, and all pink)
RAVEN!!! Next years theme should be santa home! Or NORTH POLE! You can literally incorporate the lodge and gingerbread decor into it! And it would be a really fun party!!!
Ohhhh that’s a great idea!!!
and her guests come as Santa's Elves,
Yesss I love this
I hope she does a spin on the Grinch and Whoville next year
Polar Express so it’s wintery and has a Santa land
I lovvvvve the way Ravens creativity is literally setting her up to go beyond RUclips but to pivot to be an interior decorator, an event planner, a real estate moral, an HGtv show host, etc. The endless possibilities are paving the way for her daughter and her to live out her dreams and watching this is so inspirational ❤❤
Yes!!! HGtv needs Raven!
I've thought about this so much. She has loads of documented experience, she's becoming very proficient in event coordination.
I love how you listen to and respect Zoë’s opinions. Also love that you give her credit for ideas and her input. Y’all are a perfect team and she is a gem. I hope she is around for the long haul ❤️
This is absolutely my favorite thing about working here! I always feel listened to and respected (:
Ski lodges keep the trees simpler. I’d just add some plaid ribbon to the tree and stair railings.
- Some large deers around
- DIY a large bear or deer head with paper mache for over the fireplace is a Must
- Remove the large pompas grass near the entry and put large ski set there and some garland around the mirror
- The table near the fridge, remove the painting and hang skis
I agree - a lot more plaid especially a plaid ribbon on the tree would bring it all together. I love the idea of the deer over the fireplace but if that’s not possible I think some vintage snowshoes would look great too.
@@marinaelizabeth2 Yes, it’s looking great so far just needs some small touches.
I agree with the deer/moose head!
Exactly if possible incorporate wood looking elements to make it feel like a lodge
I would have just done the white shimmery tree look. Im not a fan of the greens and teds its giving older generation vibes. I would have loved to see a new millennium ski resort!! White trees silver ice blue kind of like a frozen color scheme. I adore Raven but this one isn’t my fave. But ik she will pull it all together at the last minute 🤞🏽
Don’t forget a hot chocolate station with adult chocolate drinks. Fireplace and logs. Lanterns. I’m excited to see your finished layout.
Lanterns....ohhh that would be soo cute with the wooden elements!!!
Ooo baileys and kalua 🔥🔥🔥
Always love your theme parties. The decorations are gorgeous. Your office mannequin, you could dress her in a vintage ski suit.
Ziya's reaction when you said you're going to put the pink decoration in her play room was so sweet 🥰
Yes!
Ski lodges are usually dim with warm lighting and fireplaces. So maybe for the party you can dim your lights to help create that ambiance you're looking for.
I would have also like to see blues and silvers in contrast with the fireplace it would have been so pretty
I do not want to include taxidermy in my decor lol....and it's not possible to turn my pool into a skating rink...already thought of that lmao
I would add pinecones and leftover ornaments to the garland on your stairs!
Maybe not taxidermy but possibly those light up deer you can put outside?
Watch ski lodge/ski resort movies for more inspiration
Definitely not taxidermy!
You should watch some Hallmark Christmas Movies. Trust me, you're gonna get lots of ideas ♥️
zoë was the perfect addition to the team! its always great seeing her in your videos
When I think ski log I think Hallmark movie vibes. Very homey, lots of plaid, homemade everything, tons of blankets and woody. I can’t wait to see everything come together. 🎿
My husband just told me I go overboard decorating for the holidays. I think I’m about to introduce him to your channel. You are absolutely amazing honey!!!!
Lol right 😂😂
I think icicle lights (that have the drip effect) and maybe plaid ribbon would jazz up the staircase! 😃
Ohhhh...great ideas!!!
I just looooove Zoey. She’s so creative, talented and pretty. You two together are Magicccc
I totally agree. Getting Zoey was a big score🎉
💯 agree Zoe is special for sure .
God bless Zoey
Couple ideas for you theme
-fake deer head
-dark sheepskin or cowl print kinda rug
- ravens ski lodge wooden sign
-lots of wax candles
-floor cushions
Yes a Raven's ski lodge sign!
I’m loving the theme! You should watch some Lifetime Christmas movies for inspiration. Also, I don’t know how this could be executed BUT a large Moose head would really set the theme off!
And hallmark 😂😂
They be having animal heads for sale in tx. Like ppl put deer heads on they house walls as decor raven use to have a cow skull I believe anyways she can go there maybe just a suggestion. Good idea
Idk if i could see Raven buying a real head😂 thatd be kinda hilarious. But a fun DIY if she made a few
It would be a great DIY
Yes!! Fake deer or moose head is a must! Like the paper mache ones hobby lobby use to have
Girl you are a ✨trendsetter✨
The girlies don’t know what to plan until you create your theme 💁🏽♀️🎿 ❤
Just FYI - It's spelled ZOË :)
Thank you, I never know how to spell her name 😂❤
Yay! It’s time for Christmas.
I think a plaid garland would look great on the main Christmas tree!
Ray said put some respect on Zoe name!!! 🤌🏾
There's also traditional food like Kaiserschmarrn at the ski lodge as well as a special drink that people drink apres-ski and for the ski lodge you could make a game incorporating the skis or the goggles or something or like a rack where people usually hang their boots to dry at the ski lodge
Love this theme! Maybe add flannel decor to give some of that ski lodge theme!
Yes great idea!
I think you should definitely incorporate more woods / plaid into the tree so that it gives that ski lodge vibe you’re looking for. I think you might be adding too much white which is throwing it off but still so pretty , I was WAITING for your Christmas decor vids to drop ❤❤
Try adding more pencil trees throughout the house and outside put some real ones, spray them to have the aspect of snow. Put a coat rack as well and hang some coats. I like the theme although challenging
You could do a drink station as a "first aid station" and a favor/ gift area as "ski rental"
Raven is over here manifesting another snowpocalype with this ski resort Christmas party 😂😂
Girl you should be an interior designer with those decorating skills!
Fr
Frrrr
Interior decorater. Interior designers design buildings and commercial interiors for function. Decorators focus on aesthetics
Fr
I thought she was one. But yesss
I love that Zoe challenges your creativity respectfully 💯💯 y’all are an awesome duo!!
Okay hear me out, have you considered trying to make your pool skateable? like an ice skating rink. lol idk if it’s possible but knowing Raven she can make it ⛸️🧊❄️⛷️
Now THIS is over the top and exactly what would be amazing 🤩
Omfg youre a genius
It’s looking great, Raven! Balsam Hill has pretty large ski ornaments that would look great on your tree. I think adding warm tones with wooden things and wool blankets and outdoorsy prints can help tie the theme. Love your decorating videos!
Since I am from Austria, and skiing is a must for everyone here, I LOVE this theme so much, it‘s very unique, and will be a very chill and comforting aesthetic 🫶🏼
Frosted logs are great for the ski resort look!
It’s giving ski but I think some more warm browns will help warm the whole place up for that lodge look
Your pronunciation of "après-ski" is actually very good.
Coming from a French-speaking girl
I love you so much ❤
Try Outdoor World for more lodge decor, maybe for outside items. Looking good so far.
I think a touch of green on the tree would be good more logs and plaid
Zoe is a national treasure❤❤❤
Don’t know if you’ll see this but I think the decor problem might be the white, yeah on the outside ski resorts are filled with snow but on the inside it’s a lot more earthy tones like brown tan green and then there’s that red
^boosting! I think it will look good regardless but browns and tans would really pull it together!
Random thought but you should put up decals on your sliding doors so it gives the feel like you’re looking out into the snow. Like you’re inside a smaller cozy cabin and outside you can see the snowing mountains or something? And your ceilings are pretty high so maybe you can hang a ski lift over your living room or entry area? Last idea- DIY a wooden wall so it makes the area feel cozier as well. Anyway, so excited to see the final result, you and Zoe are so creative and always execute themes and parties amazingly 😍
Edit: okay just saw the end and you’re not going for just traditional cabin feel lol
Zoë is such an amazing assistant! you got lucky with her Raven!!
It’s crazy how fast time flies because I literally found you from your Christmas videos and now this is my 3rd year watching you decorate. It doesn’t even feel like it has been that long
Zoë is such a gem! I can’t wait to see the final results.
Antlers, fur rug and a fire going would all be great additions. No one does it like you do! Love this theme
You should add blue and green (maybe with bows - maybe velvet ) to the main tree and I would get those oversized poinsettias (possibly felt) to add to the stair railing and possibly blue and green birds that clip to the rail garland. That one oversized plaid pillow on the sofa, I would buy 3 more for the sofa and one more matching blanket to make it feel more luxe and inviting - cozy vibes! Love it Raven, your videos are the best!❤
Maybe get some earth toned fur looking blankets too to add to that luxe ski vibe and get those sheep skin covers from ikea for the dining room chairs❤
Love this!! It has always been a dream of mine to live in a log cabin. I’m a homebody so there’s literally nothing more cozy than a cabin.!! 🪵🔥🎄
Love this theme! I think you need to cover your couch in a big plaid blanket or something similar to give cozy ski lodge, and knitted blankets, and lots of faux fur? And maybe plaid ribbon woven through your main tree? And you could use kids mittens and ear muffs and Pom poms as decorations?? Also love the idea of stringing a few ornaments together when decorating your trees, am definitely going to do that!
This is too cute! Less white and more green, burgundy, and plaid items will help it be less glam. A lot more wood/logs would give it that lodge/cabin feel. Log rounds diy going up your fireplace would be cute and make your home feel more warm, and using can snow on your windows would give the illusion of it being cold outside.
This is a wonderful Christmas Theme. Everything cozy. Nice Raven. 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
Zoey is definitely growing on me. I see so much of her personality in this episode and I love it ❤ she’s also very smart and honest/realistic about your party views lol she said “I think we’re gonna have to call God on that one!l 😂😂😂 I was cracking up. And she’s getting more comfy on camera. Keep her around. !
ski lodge incorporates alot more brown and wood textures. also like a moose or deer head wud be nice , but adding alot more wood make it more lodegy
Zoe is a godsend to you! You make everybody work!😂I love your creativity!
If you were to ever get your own HGTV show I would be so invested because I love seeing your decor content!!!
i would recommend to add more wood related items to make it look more ski-lodge themed. Maybe try to find wooden ornaments if u can.
I love how Zoë still calls her Ms Raven😊
You can never be overboard for the holidays! I love to see that I’m not the only one😆 It’s a blessing to be able to spread holiday cheer💗
Come through raven. It gets better every year❤️❤️🫶
From what I've seen of Pinterest ski lodges, they seem to emphasize the architecture and the tree and garlands. I would do a more elaborate garland on the stairs and the fireplace along with the main tree and then focus on making it seem snowy on the exterior maybe with some snow spray that some stores put on the windows.
I would love to see your take on a Santa's Workshop type of theme, I think you would pull it off great! I also see ski lodges as very warm, cozy and homey and kind of leaning rustic. You can definitely incorporate that and still lean luxe, for example draping a thick quality (faux) fur blanket on the couch. I think playing into the color brown and incorporating knitted elements could help. This is a great theme to use as an excuse to cozify your home
Love this theme! Beautiful. And you’re just the most amazing mother. Keep being you
Can we get an Amen😂 on just being YOU🎉🥂
I love Raven Elyse's Christmas video ❤❤
I love how you can see the friendship and great working relationship you and Zoë have developed just over the past year. She’s such a great addition to the team. Love to see you consistently growing over the years.
Raven, you are the “Oprah” of all things party events! You are amazing with your theme parties. You work really hard to make memories for your family and friends throughout the years! Have a wonderful holiday and know that we appreciate your creativity! 🥰👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This is so dope! An idea could be to incorporate a lot of dark brown to give that warm dim cozy vibe
You need some log cabin wall paper you can install around the house to take away the white walls...install in guest bathrooms, fireplace, and dining room areas...That will make it feel more lodgey. Great job!!
It's looking good so far. I'm sure your DIYs will knock it out the park.
Lookin good! I think adding picture artwork on the walls of snowy mountains and things like that would really help the theme too!
I love that you love to decorate and host. You are exceptional at it and inspire and motivate me. Thank you for that.
You guys got so lucky with what she found on marketplace place that bench was literally perfect
You are amazing, I enjoy your ideas so much! You have been blessed having Zoe as your assistant, she seems to be a great asset to your creativity. Looking forward to watching this theme unfold. Be blessed!
I've seen so many decorations at Walmart that would go with this theme... last year. Also, that white wooden sign from the Halloween decor would go perfectly with your theme. It reminds me of the wooden signs you see in the mountains, sometimes next to the lodge. One more suggestion, where the pampas grass is next to the front door, maybe put some skis instead. And the ski patrol sign would be cute next to the shot glasses. 😅
Raven I love watching your videos, 😊 u always decorating and creating Beautiful decor. You are amazing!!!!!.❤❤
raven just want you to know u inspire everyone
Li can't wait to soon your decorations this year!!! Your decorations is amazing!!!yeah!!!!
Yeah, Raven I think you're going to have to rent a U-Haul for those next trips. Lol. You got the perfect assistant in Zoe for sure!!
Dollar tree has some amazing skii themed ornaments!!
I’m so excited to see what you do this year!
❤❤❤❤❤AAAAAHHHMAZING. YOU AND ZOE FOR THE WIN! If I were you guys I would go back and get the giant red sled like the brown one, and the white glittery ice skates too! And the blankets are bomb! And…..maybe a fake fireplace and logs on the side, and hot cocoa mugs. And barrels. And goggles. Hats and scarves for your guests?.? (You got this and don’t need my suggestions, but I live in a snowy city, so…..). Can’t wait to see the finished set up!!,! You are unbelievably creative!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
The decorations are looking very beautiful already. I am loving it! 😍😍😍❤❤❤🤍🤍🤍
happy holidays! i love your ideas!
Love the theme!!! 😊
You never disappoint with your decorating!!!
You have amazing taste! Love to see your decor vlogs. Hoping you're having a beautiful holiday season!🎄
Zoë definitely a rare gem Bless her. Love this video as always Raven you go allll out 😂
i love the cozy more traditional RL home vibes for Christmas
Love you guys so much 😉😊
love watching these videos every year. always look forward to what brilliant ideas you come up with. wishing love and peace to you and ziya
You should get custom curtains Raven! I think it would really elevate every room in the house ✨
You have given me thoughts to incorporate themes in my garden next season...
Your creativity us a blessing!!!!!! Absolutely BRILLIANT
I looove your theme , the decor already looks soo good ❤💚🤎🎄
I can’t wait to see it all come together! Raven and team always pull it off!
I remember when you first bought the Giant tree!! Can't believe we're here again for another year and another theme! 🎄✨
I love Zoe! And this year’s theme is so bomb! Like you’re so creative coming up with these themes
I think log cabin wallpaper or like a backdrop would definitely communicate ski lodge
blessings 😊 Happy Holiday's Raven and Zaya 🎄🎄🎄🎄 you got it DIY Queen
Looking good so far can’t wait to see the final look 💜
You're such a creative inspiration and girl you out do yourself every year ❤❤❤
Hey Raven. Been following since 2019 so have seen every Christmas in this home and each amazing. Agree with you that Zoe is a great planner. Love seeing you guys brainstorm. Wonderful getting the tree 🌲 in the truck. 🤔. I have never shopped on Facebook marketplace. Cool finds. Ziya’s like yesss to pink decor in her playroom. Bougie all in the mix 😂. You even match the wrapping paper and gift bags. You think of everything. Ha. Ziya caught the tiny sled 🛷 too. All those stores love seeing you walk in. The office tree looks great. Like your cluster technique. Was wondering how the ornaments on the floor were gonna fit on the main tree but it fit. Imagining the end result. Will be amazing. Hope you share your DIY’s. Have fun and thanks for sharing. 🤗
Ziya is absolutely beautiful. She’s definitely her dad’s twin. I haven’t seen him in years but I know she’s a spitting image of him. Happy holidays to all of you!
You are amazing!!! So inspiring!
Beautiful, classy ❤ love your Christmas 🎄
Yay! Happy Sunday!
Re: your story the other day (maybe do the candy land gingerbread in the playroom since it's already been done but there's so much more stuff in store now)
Okay.. Watching now! ❤❤❤
Edit: watching the video call with Zoe, this editing format is just so fun to watch, really love the changes
Looks GREAT!!! All Ready!!😍
I know you’re a busy woman and I just want to say I love your content🩵 I would love to see an intro and have to introduce your family and Zoë. (people that get to be in your videos most of the time) if you know what I mean. Just so you know I’m 17 but I been watching your videos for years. Love how you’re so independent it really inspires me and I’m sure I’m not the only one. So proud of you and keep the hustle miss raven!!
Zoe is her assistant and there's a video where she interviews Zoe. It's really good.
