The video-conferencing service allows users to upload their own backgrounds, which means you can virtually spend some time in your dream home or experiment with a whole new design style, no strings attached. Thankfully, you don't have to get rid of your favorite furnishings or even rearrange your layout to experience a fresh design aesthetic, all you have to do is change your Zoom background. Add to that the fact that your interiors make an appearance on all of your video calls, and the desire to give your space a makeover is hard to ignore. Seeing the same rooms over and over and over naturally feels a little monotonous, no matter how much you love your home's design. This holiday Zoom background from Havenly features a sophisticated white mantle decked out with stockings, a cheerful Christmas tree, cozy armchairs, and some sleek pair bookcases.Now that we're several months into this new normal of spending more time at home and interacting with friends, family, and coworkers solely over video chat-Zoom, FaceTime, Google Hangouts, you name it-it's not surprising that many of us are craving a bit of change, especially when it comes to our interiors. While there are plenty of options out there to bring some cheer to the chat, here are some holiday Zoom backgrounds to get you started. Then, launch Zoom and go to Settings, click Backgrounds & Filters, and select the plus sign (+) on the virtual background tab to upload the image of your choice. To use them, download the image to your computer or right-click on the image from its blog site to save it. You can get most of these backgrounds from royalty-free image services such as Pixabay, Pexels, or Unsplash, as well as home decor blogs such as Havenly's Hideaway blog and West Elm's Front + Main. With backgrounds featuring expertly-decorated living rooms and winter wonderlands, you can celebrate the holidays over Zoom in a flash. Of course, decorating IRL is fun, but it can get taxing after putting up the second tree and hanging all the stockings. Here are some holiday Zoom backgrounds that’ll make your calls merry.


As you prepare for all the festive virtual happy hours or online holiday parties, you can easily swap out your old virtual background with one that’ll make you feel like you’re visiting the North Pole. With the holiday season in full swing, it’s time to deck the halls, bring out the decorations, and add some virtual decor to your video calls.
