Whether you’re settling into a one-bedroom retreat or enjoying the spaciousness of a three-bedroom layout, this guide will inspire you with practical, stylish tips for bringing comfort, joy, and personality to your home throughout the holidays.
1. Embrace Savannah’s Festive Spirit in Everyday Spaces
Savannah is celebrated for its hospitality and seasonal charm. Whether you’ve chosen a 1, 2, or 3 bedroom apartment home at Walden at Chatham Center, your space can reflect the city’s festive spirit. Start by harnessing the abundance of natural light in your living areas—accentuate windows and patios with subtle holiday window clings, garlands, or battery-powered fairy lights. These simple touches create a magical atmosphere, especially during the shorter days of winter.
A cozy living room remains the heart of every holiday gathering. Make your modern apartment feel welcoming by layering in plush throws, chunky knit blankets, and decorative pillows in rich, seasonal colors like deep reds, greens, and golds. Add a bowl of cinnamon-scented pinecones or delicate faux evergreen arrangements to coffee and dining tables for a sophisticated yet festive accent.
2. Stylish Entryways and Welcoming First Impressions
First impressions set the tone for holiday hospitality. The entryway of your Walden at Chatham Center apartment is a great place to introduce the season. Consider placing a decorative holiday doormat at your front door, and hang a classic wreath made of pine, holly, or eucalyptus to bring fresh, natural elements right to your entrance. For an extra pop, a small potted poinsettia or twinkling lanterns positioned just outside your apartment beacon a warm welcome to friends and family.
Inside, swap out everyday entry table décor for seasonal touches: use trays with festive candles, mini glass trees, or nostalgic figurines. Hang up hooks or a decorative ladder to display cozy scarves, gently reminding guests (and yourself) that comfort here is prioritized.
3. Transform Your Kitchen for Holiday Cheer
The kitchen in every Walden at Chatham Center home is truly a showpiece. From contemporary maple cabinetry to stone countertops and black appliances, the space offers a luxurious foundation for seasonal accents. Use open shelving or countertops to arrange gingerbread houses, glass jars filled with peppermint candies, or seasonal mugs. Hang festive towels or potholders on cabinet handles, and use fresh rosemary sprigs as napkin rings for gatherings at your breakfast bar.
If you have a sunroom or screened porch—features available in many floor plans—turn it into a winter wonderland or a private cocoa nook by draping string lights and setting up a tray with hot chocolate essentials. These corners are perfect for savoring chilly evenings while soaking up community lake views or garden surroundings.
4. Cozy Bedrooms and Serene Retreats
Your bedroom is your refuge during the busy holiday season. Give it a special touch by switching to flannel bedding or layering on a seasonal throw. Arrange candles with winter fragrances, or add a touch of greenery to your nightstand or dresser. In larger layouts, try a decorative, tabletop tree for a whisper of holiday magic without overwhelming the space.
Treat your walk-in closet to a refresh—conceal off-season attire in coordinated storage bins and highlight your best sweaters, scarves, and festive wear for easy access.
5. Bath Spaces: Spa-Inspired for the Holidays
Bathrooms at Walden at Chatham Center can be transformed with a few simple updates. Replace hand towels with ones embroidered with subtle seasonal motifs. Introduce evergreen-scented diffusers or candles to promote relaxation. Display a decorative tray with bath salts and snowy white towels for a spa-like touch, inviting you to unwind after holiday festivities.
6. Outdoor Patios and Sunrooms: Bringing Cheer to the Outdoors
Take advantage of Savannah’s mild winters by creating a festive outdoor retreat on your patio or sunroom. Place holiday throw pillows on wicker chairs and arrange an outdoor-friendly rug with seasonal pa

7. Sustainable and Pet-Friendly Holiday Decor
Being environmentally conscious is always stylish—and in a pet-friendly community, safety matters. Choose LED lighting, reusable decorations, and shatterproof ornaments. Keep festive plants like poinsettias, mistletoe, and holly out of pet reach, opting for faux alternatives when needed. Place pets’ beds in cozy nooks with a holiday-themed blanket or add a stocking with their name so your furry friend shares in the celebration.
8. Community Engagement: Sharing the Holiday Spirit
Walden at Chatham Center is more than stunning apartments—it’s a vibrant community. Join resident events, whether it’s a cookie exchange, decorating contest, or holiday brunch, to build new traditions and connect with neighbors.

9. Decorating Tips for Every Floor Plan
No matter which floor plan you call home, maximizing space is essential.
- 1 bedroom apartments: Use vertical space for décor—think wall-mounted wreaths or tall, slender tabletop trees. Multi-use items like storage ottomans with festive slipcovers add both style and function.
- 2 bedroom apartments: Create dedicated spaces for dining, lounging, and celebrating. A pair of matching centerpieces or coordinated tabletop displays can make each room feel intentional.
- 3 bedroom apartments: Assign a holiday theme to each bedroom or let roommates and family members decorate their spaces. A larger dining table is ideal for elaborate centerpieces and extended family gatherings.
