Checked textiles, especially bold woven patterns by Evelina Kroon, act as signature elements in IKEA 2025 Christmas decor. They provide graphic warmth on tablecloths, throws, and cushions, grounding the classic red-and-green palette. Checks repeat motifs visually and add texture richness, defining festive focal zones. Using these textiles is essential for achieving the more-is-more Scandi charm that feels cozy yet lively and intentional.
