Christmastime, the most wonderful time of the year–and yet, often the most stressful. But what if there was a way you could transform your holiday preparations into a smooth and enjoyable experience? Here’s a couple practical ways to make Christmas easy this year.
Use a mix of fresh and faux greenery
As the holiday season begins, consider heading over to places that sell Christmas trees, like Lowe’s, Walmart, or tree lots, and ask for branches or cuttings that have fallen off the trees. Since they are usually just throwing them away, they will likely be happy to get them off their hands. A bonus of using the fresh cuttings for your decorations: the delightful smell of fresh pine. Additionally, you can mix in some faux greenery, which you won’t have to worry about lasting all season. Adding some faux hydrangeas and eucalyptus into your arrangements can really create a beautiful look. If you’re feeling extra creative, place some pinecones and berries within the greenery too.
Simplify your decor
Sometimes less is more, especially when it comes to Christmas decor. You don’t have to spend hundreds of dollars or countless hours struggling with complicated light-up fixtures. Instead, opt for some white lights. Simple white lights, whether it be traditional strands, icicle lights, or twinkle lights, are timeless and add an enchanting look to any home. To elevate this look further with an elegant touch, consider placing white electric candles in the windows. This simple addition creates such a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
No matter your approach to decorating this Christmas, it’s the little details that make all the difference. You don’t have to go overboard or wrestle with complicated setups. Embrace simplicity and let it guide you to a timeless and beautiful holiday scene that will be cherished by all who gather in your home.
