Somewhere between the third scroll and the tenth saved pin, nutcracker trees stopped being a novelty and became an entire decorating personality — and 2026 is the year they took over the living room. We spent serious time browsing Target, Etsy, Walmart, and Wayfair to bring you only what’s worth your attention this year, from $12 ornaments to a $450 life-sized soldier who will absolutely become the most photographed thing in your house.
Inside you’ll find 30 curated ideas across traditional red-and-gold, vintage glass with dried citrus, snowy white-and-silver, and the pastel whimsical camp that’s quietly converting people who swore they hated nutcrackers. Budget and luxury versions sit side by side, and every idea is shoppable with direct product links, so you can go from saved pin to front door without a single guess.
The 2026 shift is collecting instead of just displaying: layered figurines, mixed materials, ornament trees you build over years rather than buy in one trip.
Save this post now — you’ll want it when you’re ready to shop. And stay until the end — we break down the most common mistakes that can ruin these looks. 📌 Save this to Pinterest for later — you’ll want to revisit these ideas.
1. The Window-Display Nutcracker in Royal Blue and Crimson
Here’s the trick that separates a display that reads as designed from one that reads as accumulated: set the figure 12 to 18 inches in front of the tree rather than beside it, so the two silhouettes overlap and the eye picks up depth. Keep the hat crown at roughly the tree’s midpoint — on a 7.5-foot tree, that’s a statue between 5 and 6 feet. That plaque-paneled wall behind is a free vertical grid, so line the wreath up with a panel edge and let the pattern repeat.
Three things carry this scene. Contrast: flat paneling and matte greenery against glossy ornaments and a painted uniform. Repetition: crimson shows up in the tree, the wreath ribbon, the figure’s coat, and the plaid gift wrap — which is exactly why the royal blue reads as deliberate instead of loud. And grounding: those woven baskets give a very tall composition somewhere to land.
2. Glossy Black-and-White Nutcracker on a Marble Entry Floor
- Statement figure: glossy black-and-white life-sized statue, $180–$450
- Lighting: 6.5-ft pre-lit tree $90–$260; lit doorway wreath $35–$90
- Textiles: tree skirt, ribbon, entry runner $40–$110
- Decor: red and gold ornaments, wrapped gifts $45–$130
- Surface care: trim touch-up paint, marble polish $20–$60
- Budget alternative: a matte white resin figure from Walmart or Target runs $60–$110, a 4-ft pre-lit tree is $35–$70, and dollar-store ornaments plus ribbon add about $25 — roughly 55% off the full look.
- Total: $410–$1,100, or about $185 the budget way
The polished marble floor is the one element you’d miss most if it disappeared. It doubles every light in the room, so the tree, the wreath, and the figure’s silver accents get a second, softer version of themselves below. Put the same arrangement on matte concrete and it goes flat. If your entry isn’t glossy, don’t chase this look with more decor — chase it with one large glazed planter or a lacquered console that throws light back up.
3. Grand Nutcracker Framed by Oversized Multi-Pane Windows
about 55% light neutral base — white ornaments, pale hardwood, all that window light — 30% saturated red and blue, 15% gold in trim and accents. That ratio is what keeps a five-color scene calm. Swap the blue for forest green and it leans warmer and more cabin; swap the red for burgundy and it reads older and more formal. Change the materials, keep the math, and the room still holds together.
about those gorgeous windows: during daylight hours a figure placed in front of glass becomes a silhouette, and a dark-painted uniform can disappear entirely. Give the statue its own light source after 4 pm, and photograph it with the window behind your shoulder. Also, direct southern sun will fade painted resin and dry out wood over a season or two, so rotate the figure 180 degrees in January if it lives near glass all year.
4. The Lighted Nutcracker That Greets You at the Door
This pairing works on any covered entry with at least 5 feet of clear wall width and an 8-foot ceiling. The statue here reads about 5 feet tall with a roughly 3-foot potted pine beside it — that gap in height is what keeps them from competing. Under a 4-foot-wide stoop, drop to a 3-foot statue and skip the tree entirely. On a porch wider than 10 feet, run a symmetrical pair flanking the door. Prefer the soldier indoors? See Idea #24 for the version that lives inside.
You don’t need a boutique-price statue for this. Walmart and At Home both carry lighted 4-to-5-foot figures for $70–$150, and Facebook Marketplace is full of them every January. A thrifted wicker basket gets you the ribboned planter for about $6, and a real potted dwarf pine ($30–$50) can go in the ground in spring. Whole vignette: under $200.
5. Drummer Nutcracker Styled With a Pinecone and One Ornament
- Clear a surface at least 14 inches deep — a dresser, console, or hearth ledge.
- Set the drummer one third in from the left edge so it never blocks the tree behind it.
- Place a single red ornament to the right at about the figure’s knee height; it echoes the uniform and stops the composition from tipping.
- Nestle a pinecone and a short evergreen sprig at the base, overlapping the boots by an inch.
- Light from the side — a lamp behind and to the left — so the gold trim on the hat catches a highlight.
Ten minutes, and about $0–$15 if you already own a spare ornament.
is restraint. A dark wood surface makes the red uniform glow, the blurred tree supplies warmth without competing detail, and the ornament plus pinecone form a small triangle that frames the figure instead of burying it. Notice that nothing else sits on that surface. The emptiness is the design.
6. Red, White, and Black Nutcracker With Snowflake Cutouts
Nostalgia is the note of the 2026 season, and it’s measurable — searches for vintage and thrifted holiday decor have been climbing for three years straight. Cutout snowflakes, red and gold glass balls, and traditional painted uniforms tap into that pull without looking like a museum case. Better news: this trend has staying power, because it’s built from pieces you actually keep. Sourcing it from estate sales and an attic box is the entire point.
Practical tip for a three-color tree: cap the palette at red, gold, and white, and buy ornaments in odd groups of five. A 7-foot tree wants 60 to 80 ornaments total, which sounds like a lot until you divide it — about 20 gold, 20 red, 20 white. Hang the white snowflake cutouts last, and only in the outer third of the branches, where nothing is competing with them for space.
7. Crowned Nutcracker on Faux Snow Against Damask Wallpaper
The damask wallpaper is the one thing, and if you stripped it away this would just be a figurine on a table. That tonal pattern gives the eye somewhere to travel behind the subject, which is why the crowded foreground — evergreen boughs, pinecones, ornaments, a lit taper — doesn’t feel busy. It sets the palette, too: those reds and greens are pulled straight from the wall. Pick your background first and half your styling decisions start making themselves.
Upkeep is the trade-off. Decorative faux snow is polyester fluff and it grabs dust, pet hair, and lint faster than anything else on your holiday table — fluff it with clean fingers and shake it out outdoors twice a season. Real candles against paper-backed wallpaper are a genuine hazard, so keep the taper at least 10 inches off the wall, or switch to a battery-operated one with a warm flicker and stop worrying about it.
8. Flocked Tree With Light Blue Ornaments and a Tabletop Nutcracker
60% frosted white from the flocked tree and snowy surface, 25% cool blue in the ornaments, 15% black and shine from the lantern, the glossy baubles, and the figure’s trim. That’s a cool palette, and it still reads cozy because the fairy lights run warm — which is the trick with any icy scheme. Swap blue for sage green and it becomes a woodland look; swap it for lavender and you’re somewhere near pastel territory.
Scale-wise this is a tabletop scene, so it’s forgiving. Plan on a table at least 24 inches wide and 14 inches deep, with a 3-to-4-foot tree behind the figure. In a small apartment with an 8-foot ceiling, this setup gives you the presence of a full tree without the footprint. In a room with 10-foot ceilings or a double-height entry, the same composition shrinks to an accessory — so go up a size or two and let it hold its ground.
9. Silver, White, and Blush Nutcracker on a Wood Slice
Cool palettes need exactly one warm anchor, and here it’s the raw wood slice under the figure — that brown is what stops silver, white, and blush from turning clinical. Second rule: keep your metallics in one family. Everything here is silver, and the only gold in the scene comes from fairy-light glow, which reads as light rather than metal. Mixing brass candlesticks into a silver-and-blush arrangement is the fastest way to make it look accidental.
To get this for less: buy a plain white 12-inch wooden figure ($25–$40), tape off the face, and spray the uniform in satin silver. Flocking spray turns a cheap green tabletop tree into a frosted one for about $12, and blush ornament packs run $5–$8 for six. A wood slice is $6 at a craft store. If blush is your gateway, the pastel group in Idea #27 takes the same idea several steps further.
10. The Nutcracker-Ribbon Tree With a Figure Tucked Inside
The nutcracker-patterned ribbon is what makes this a themed tree instead of a pile of ornaments. Without it you’d still have a lovely red-and-gold tree with a figure in the middle — pleasant, forgettable. The printed ribbon carries the motif through the branches in a way a figurine can’t, because it repeats. If you buy one thing for a themed tree this year, buy the patterned ribbon and let the ornaments stay plain.
- Wire the figure’s base to a sturdy branch near the trunk, about two-thirds up, so it sits inside the tree rather than in front of it.
- Work in one direction around the tree with the patterned ribbon, looping roughly every 12 inches.
- Add red velvet ribbon loops on the opposite diagonal to break up the pattern.
- Tuck gold mesh picks into the gaps, then finish with beaded garland draped rather than wrapped.
Budget about two hours and $60–$120 in ribbon and picks if you’re starting from scratch.
11. Twin Miniature Flanking Trees Around a Drum Nutcracker
on symmetry: it only works when it’s exact. Two miniature trees flanking a figure have to be the same height, the same distance from center, and dressed the same way — otherwise your eye catches the imbalance every time you walk past. Small trees also read like leftovers unless you give them weight, and the red ribbon wrap here is doing that job. Check your bulbs too: warm yellow fairy lights next to cool white LED strands make both look broken.
Why it works: hierarchy and repetition in the same breath. The figure is the tallest, most detailed element, so it leads. The two small trees repeat its shape at half scale, which creates rhythm without adding noise. And the warm lights in the background tree pull everything into one golden temperature, so a red-and-gold palette feels like a single decision rather than five separate ones.
12. Green-Jacketed Nutcracker With a Jeweled Gold Crown
- Measure your shelf or table depth — 10 inches minimum so a 12-inch figure doesn’t feel like it’s about to topple.
- Check where light lands after dark; the crown and staff need a highlight or they go flat and grey.
- Hold the figure’s green-and-red palette against your room. A green jacket with red trim can fight a blush or pastel scheme.
- Plan the base: a felt pad or small runner protects wood and keeps the figure from sliding.
- Set a budget floor. Well-painted 12-inch wooden figures start around $35 if you skip the brand name.
Then the detail that separates styled from stuck-up-there: place the head at eye level when you’re seated, roughly 42 to 48 inches off the floor, with at least 6 inches of air between the crown and whatever sits above it. Crowd it tighter and the figure reads as clutter no matter how beautiful the paint job is.
13. Nestling a Painted Nutcracker Ornament Inside the Branches
Ornament scale is where people go wrong on small trees. A 3-to-5-inch ornament on a 3-to-4-foot tabletop tree is right; go bigger and the branches sag, go smaller and it vanishes. Hang them about 4 inches apart and set each one roughly 2 inches inside the branch tips rather than on the outer edge, so the pine surrounds it. That’s what gives you the nestled look instead of the pinned-on look.
here is the golden beaded garland sitting just behind the ornament and slightly out of focus. It creates a halo of warm bokeh that pushes the figure forward and makes a $6 ornament look like it came out of a display case. Garlands behind objects are the cheapest depth trick in holiday decorating — run a strand behind your vignette instead of in front and watch the whole shelf change.
14. A Whole Tree of Nutcracker Ornaments (Yes, All of Them)
for an ornament-only tree: roughly 60% green base, 25% figure ornaments as the stars, 15% plain red and gold baubles separating them. Those baubles matter more than you’d think — they’re the commas between sentences. Swap the multicolor figures for all-red painted ones and it becomes a formal tree; swap them for white and gold and you get the mood of Idea #10 at a fraction of the size and cost.
Getting this for less is genuinely easy, because nutcracker ornaments are everywhere. Walmart sells four-packs for $10–$14, Target’s wooden sets hover around $12, and thrift stores regularly have single figures for $1–$3 in December. Add a $6 bag of red and gold baubles and a basket of foraged pinecones and you’ve filled a 6-foot tree for under $60 — with pieces you’ll still like in five years.
15. Vintage Glass Nutcracker With Dried Orange Slices
Vintage-style glass and dried citrus is the sleeper trend of 2026 — quieter than the maximalist garland look and gorgeous in photos, which is why it keeps surfacing on Pinterest. The appeal is provenance: glass ornaments from the fifties and sixties, orange slices dried in a low oven, mismatched pieces that suggest a tree decorated over decades rather than in one afternoon. It’s also the most affordable trend going, since estate sales practically give this stuff away.
Maintenance, though, is real. Dried orange slices fade toward brown within a season or two and turn brittle, so store them flat in a sealed container with a silica packet. Never hang them where humidity lives — above a kitchen radiator they’ll mold. Glass chips on tile floors, so hang the fragile pieces high and keep shatterproof ornaments at kid and tail height.
16. Gingerbread Nutcracker With Royal Icing Piping
When a figurine is one warm color from hat to boots, it needs contrast or it turns into a brown blob. The white beadboard wall does the heavy lifting here, but notice the smaller accents doing just as much: blue and pink details within 12 inches of the figure, so the eye has somewhere to rest. If you own a gingerbread-toned piece and it’s disappearing on your mantel, add one cool-toned object — a white ceramic bowl, a pale blue candle — within arm’s reach of it.
Two practical notes. Keep icing-styled pieces away from radiators and heat vents; the modeled detail can craze and crack over a heating season or two. And if there are small kids in the house, say it out loud: this is decoration, not dessert. A gingerbread nutcracker on a low side table gets licked at least once a year. Put it above waist height and everyone stays happy.
17. A Carousel Diorama Ornament: Nutcracker, Rocking Horse, Candles
Keepsake ornaments deserve a stage rather than a branch. Here’s how to build one in about 20 minutes:
- Choose a sturdy branch section for the ornament to hang from, or use a small brass ornament stand if you’d rather skip greenery.
- Position it at eye level — around 48 inches on a console or shelf — so the miniature detail is actually visible.
- Add one battery-powered puck light behind and to the side; the backlight picks out the tiny candles and figures.
- Keep the surrounding area bare: no competing ornaments, no greenery sprays.
Cost: about $12 for the stand and light if you don’t already own them.
It works because the piece is narrative. A carousel with a rocking horse, a mushroom-topped gift box, white candles, and a flower canopy isn’t an ornament — it’s a scene, and scenes need silence around them. Framing it with light instead of clutter is what lets people see the hand-painted parts someone spent hours on.
18. White and Gold Nutcracker Ornaments on a Wooden Display Board
Here’s the honest math on a white-and-gold set: a hand-painted wooden figure runs $15–$30 each, which adds up fast once you want six. Buy a plain set of unfinished or dollar-store nutcrackers instead — $10 for four — and spray them matte white with a $7 can. Add gold with a small brush or a metallic paint pen ($5) on the buttons, belt, and hat band. A strip of craft faux fur finishes the beards. Four custom figures, about $30 total.
Display-wise, this reads best as a row on a board rather than scattered around the house. Plan an 18-to-24-inch board for four to six figures, keep each ornament between 4 and 6 inches tall, and space them roughly 2 inches apart so their props — candy canes, tiny trees — don’t collide. Prefer more color? The red-and-green miniatures in Idea #22 do the same job with more personality.
19. The Plain Grey Wall Nutcracker (and Why It Works)
putting one figurine against a bare grey wall is a high-wire act. There’s nothing to hide behind, so anything out of place gets amplified — dust on the base, a crooked prop, a scuffed surface. The wall also has to be genuinely clean and evenly painted, because flat grey shows every roller mark in raking light. And a small figure on a large wall just looks lost. This composition only works because the figure is substantial and the surface beneath it is dark and polished.
is negative space doing the framing that a picture frame or shelving unit would normally do. The single evergreen sprig gives your eye one small organic shape to land on, the circular base acts as a pedestal, and the grey wall reads as a studio backdrop rather than an empty wall. It’s essentially a portrait — and portraits need one subject, not five.
20. A Red Storage Box Full of Miniature Nutcracker Soldiers
for a mini-figure collection: 70% neutral — wood, white, natural fiber — 20% red, 10% gold in buttons, belts, and hanging loops. The uniforms themselves supply the blue and black, so everything around them has to stay quiet or the group reads as a toy bin. Swap the red box for a cream or kraft tray and the same figures look like a curated collection instead of storage.
is that red partitioned storage box. It’s doing two jobs at once: it holds the figures upright between seasons, and it turns storage into display — which is the whole difference between a collection and a drawer of stuff. Divided boxes cost next to nothing at craft stores and thrift shops, and they let you bring out eight figures at a time instead of dumping all twenty onto the table at once.
21. Ceramic Candy-Cane Nutcracker With a Satin Ribbon Bow
- Striped ceramic nutcracker ornament: $8–$25
- Red satin ribbon for the bow: $5–$12
- Pinecones: free if you forage, $6–$14 for a bag
- Red berry clusters: $8–$20
- Battery-operated warm fairy lights: $15–$35
- Budget alternative: a $1.25 dollar-store ornament, ribbon off a thrifted spool, pinecones from the yard, and a $5 strand from Five Below — the whole vignette for about $12.
- Total: $42–$106, or roughly $12 on the scavenger route
- Hang the ornament just inside the branch tips, in the upper third of the tree.
- Cluster three pinecones below and slightly to one side so the arrangement isn’t perfectly straight.
- Add red berries on the opposite side in a smaller cluster.
- Run the fairy lights behind everything rather than around it.
Fifteen minutes, no tools, no glue. For a vintage-glass cousin, see Idea #15.
22. Pocket-Sized Nutcracker in a Red Hat and Green Jacket
Small ornaments are the hardest thing to hang well, and there’s a reason: they have to be read up close. Give a 4-inch figure its own breathing room — about 8 inches of clear branch on either side — and hang it at eye level rather than at the top or bottom of the tree. Displaying one on a shelf instead? Set it on a small riser so the gold hanging loop isn’t crushed against the surface. Detail at this scale only registers when nothing crowds it.
There’s also a reason these tiny painted soldiers are everywhere in 2026. Collecting is the trend — people are buying one or two meaningful ornaments a year instead of a themed set, and mini nutcrackers fit that perfectly because no two are painted alike. Buy one on every trip and by 2030 you’ll have a tree that tells a story. That’s the kind of decor that survives every aesthetic shift.
23. The Tinsel-Hat Nutcracker With White Kittens on Top
This is a statement piece, so treat it like one. Figure on a console or tabletop at least 16 inches deep and a surface that won’t wobble — an 18-to-24-inch figure on a narrow floating shelf is an accident waiting to happen. Give it 12 inches of clear wall behind it, because the tinsel and pom details need contrast, not competition. In a small room, one piece like this beats five small ones every time.
The honest part: tinsel sheds, and glitter migrates. Expect to find gold flecks on your floor for a month, so keep it off any surface where food is served and out of reach of pets who chew. Wipe the base with a dry microfiber cloth rather than a damp one — moisture mats the tinsel and dulls the glitter permanently. And if you have toddlers, this particular piece is better at 4 feet up than at eye level.
24. Red Jacket, Green Trousers: The Doorway Sentinel
An outdoor resin figure is a two-to-seven-year commitment, depending on sun exposure. UV turns painted reds pink and yellows whites, and freeze-thaw cycles crack thin boots and hats. Wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soap twice a season, bring it in before hail or an ice storm, and store it in a dry bin with the cord wrapped loosely — never coiled tight around the body, which is how wiring fails. A north-facing entry can double the lifespan.
Price-wise, this is the most accessible look in the whole article. Walmart and At Home carry 4-to-5-foot figures for $50–$120, and January clearance drops them under $40. If a favorite figure has faded, exterior spray paint in gloss red or green plus a gold paint pen for the trim brings it back for about $15. Compare with Idea #4 — same idea, different light source.
25. Deep Red Curtains, an Oversized Nutcracker, One Cozy Living Room
Placing an oversized figure in a living room, step by step:
- Measure the space between the fireplace and the nearest chair — you need at least 24 inches of walking path.
- Set the figure at a 30-to-45-degree angle to the wall so it faces into the room rather than into the fireplace.
- Keep it at least 3 feet from the hearth; steady heat dries and cracks painted resin.
- Anchor it visually with one element above — artwork, a mirror, a wreath — so it doesn’t read as an isolated object.
About 30 minutes, no cost beyond the figure itself.
The color math here is unusually bold: roughly 50% red, counting the drapes, the armchair, the stockings, and the statue, against 30% warm neutral walls and upholstery and 20% gold and green from the tree. It works because every red is the same depth — no pink-red mixed with brick-red. Pick one red and repeat it four times.
26. The Stacked-Hat Nutcracker With Presents and a Mini Tree
The stacked hat — presents and a mini tree balanced on top — is the single element that turns this from a figurine into a sculpture. Remove it and you have a very nice nutcracker standing in a normal living room. With it, the piece has a silhouette you can read from the doorway and a story you don’t have to explain. When you’re shopping, this is the detail worth paying for: one that changes the shape, not just the paint.
And then hold the backdrop back. When your figure is this busy, the mantel behind it should be quiet: one strand of garland, three ornament sizes maximum, no competing figurines. Keep the tree lights warm and the mantel’s greenery to a single species so the pattern on that hat stays the loudest thing in the frame. Busy plus busy equals noise every time.
27. Four Pastel Nutcrackers Lined Up on Faux Snow
Repetition is the whole game here. Four figures in a row, evenly spaced, on one continuous white surface — your eye reads them as a set before it reads them as individuals, which is exactly what you want from pastels that could otherwise wash out against a light background. The warm string lights handle the second job: pink, mint, and light blue all go grey under cool LEDs, so that warmth is what keeps them looking like candy instead of chalk.
Scale is forgiving, since these are tabletop pieces. A 48-inch console handles four figures comfortably; budget about 6 inches of width and 6 inches of height per nutcracker, plus 2 to 3 inches of space between them. Faux snow should sit about an inch deep, not drift. If your surface only fits three, use three — an odd triangle reads as collected, a long even row reads as purchased. Both work; just choose on purpose.
28. Giant Lighted Nutcracker Beside a Stone Fireplace
Lighted statues mean cords, and cords mean planning. Here’s the reality: most illuminated figures have a 6-to-10-foot cord with no switch, so you’ll want a remote outlet or a smart plug — otherwise you’re crawling behind the fireplace every night in December. Keep the figure at least 3 feet from the hearth, since heat warps resin and can soften the light housing. And weigh the base if pets or kids are around, because a 5-foot statue tips faster than you’d expect.
- Place the statue first, unplugged, and check the sightline from the doorway.
- Run the cord along the wall base and under a rug edge, never across a walking path.
- Plug into a smart outlet and set a 4 pm to 11 pm schedule so it’s lit before you get home.
- Zip-tie any slack to the back of the base — loose loops are what get snagged.
Total: about $15 for the smart plug and 20 minutes of setup.
29. The Soldier Ornament: Bearskin Hat, Blue Trousers, Gold Thread
Ornaments with props — a rifle, a drum, a little branch — need light to read. Hang a prop-holding figure near a bulb cluster rather than in a dark gap, and give it a foot of open branch so the silhouette separates. On a lit tree that’s the difference between a detail people lean in to see and a dark shape they scroll past. It’s also worth hanging these on the side of the tree you actually sit next to.
Color math for this classic soldier: 40% red tunic, 30% green tree, 20% blue trousers, 10% gold thread and trim. That’s a lot of saturation, which is exactly why the black bearskin hat matters — it’s the neutral keeping the figure from vibrating. Swap the blue trousers for white and he becomes a snow-soldier; swap the red tunic for navy and the whole ornament calms down for a blue-and-silver tree.
30. A Red-and-Green Nutcracker Paired With a Plaid-Ribbon Wreath
Two elements, one palette, no clutter: that’s the entire composition. The wreath’s red velvet bows and plaid ribbon pick up the figure’s red coat, and the gold lanterns echo his gold trim — so the scene holds together even though there are only three objects in it. Notice the placement, too: the wreath sits near the figure’s waist height rather than at the top of the door, which is what makes this feel like one grouping instead of two separate decorations.
For scale, you need about 3 feet of wall clearance for a pairing like this and a door width of at least 32 inches so nothing blocks the handle. A 5-foot figure pairs best with a wreath between 22 and 28 inches across — roughly half the figure’s height. On a narrow entry, drop to a 3-foot figure and a 16-inch wreath. Think of this as the tighter, indoor-cousin version of Idea #1‘s window display.
One Soldier, One Tree, One Very Good December
You don’t need a life-sized statue, a flocked tree, and a themed ribbon collection to get this right — you need one piece you actually love and enough empty space around it to let it be seen. Start with whichever idea above matches the surface you already own, and build from there.
📌 Save this to Pinterest before you start shopping, and if you try the pastel row or the doorway sentinel, we want to see it.
