your curated Christmas starts here
We design, source, and style your home for the season. You come home to it finished.
Most holiday services hang what you hand them. We start with a design.
designed, not just decorated.
design
A look built around your home, your palette, and the way you host. You approve the mood board before anything is bought.

We find every piece, from the ribbon to the tree, or work with what you already own.
style
We install and finish everything in one visit. You don’t lift a finger.
services
Every package includes a consultation, a custom mood board, and full installation. Whatever you choose, we finish completely. Prices cover design and styling; decor is separate. We style what you own, source new pieces within your budget, or both.

Your tree, plus the mantel, staircase, and entryway styled to match. From $1,250.
Every room you host in: trees, mantels, staircases, dining table, and the details between. From $2,500.
Front door, steps, planters, and porch, styled for the first impression. From $450.
how it works

Choose your package and tell us about your space. It takes about five minutes.
design
Within 24 to 48 hours, we confirm your details and send a mood board made for your home.
source
We gather every piece in your design, so there are no store runs and no guesswork.
install + reveal
We arrive, style, and tidy up. You come home to it finished.
for businesses
Your lobby, showroom, or dining room is the first thing clients see in December. We design it to suit your brand, install it around your schedule, and have it ready before your first holiday guest walks in.
We work with offices, hotels, restaurants, car dealerships, country clubs, and schools.
Commercial projects are quoted individually and start at $1,500.
about
I’m Amanda Maxwell, the designer behind curated Christmas. Years of coordinating weddings and events taught me what that moment of “ahh, it’s done” is worth, and I bring the same care to your holidays: a clear plan, a considered design, and every detail handled, so you can simply enjoy it.
My style is whimsical, vibrant, and always a little exploratory. I fluff every branch by hand, and I’ll always start with what you already own. You don’t need a new theme every year to make it feel new.
