Holiday Decorating Ideas Prep
Decorating for the holidays is really fun and exciting. However, it can also cause stress and not to mention, expensive. This is why like all good projects, it takes careful planning; from your holiday theme decor, budget, down to the menu, everything has to be set. This way, it will take away some stress and inconvenience. With that said, it would be helpful to create a checklist so that you have a better overview of how your preparation is going.
Inexpensive Holiday Decorating Ideas To Try
If you have a limited budget for your holiday decor, then we have a treat for you! Here are some cheap and easy holiday decorating ideas you could try:
Redecorate Old Christmas Tree Ornaments
Every year, the trend for holiday trees changes, and Christmas ornaments in general. So some of your tree ornaments may look outdated. But if you’re trying to save up some cash, you don’t have to buy new Christmas tree decorations. Instead, redesign them. You can add glitters, repaint them, or whatever you can think of.
Turn Your Pillows Into Presents
If you have old or white pillowcases you’ve used for another season, turn them into Christmas presents. How? Temporarily sew ribbon across your pillow. For finishing touches, add a bow or rhinestone pin.
Create Your Own Christmas Centerpiece
Another inexpensive holiday decorating idea you should try is creating your own centerpiece. For example, you can create a candy cane centerpiece. Simply put the candy cane together in a circle and put a festive flower like a poinsettia. You can even take a cake stand (use old Christmas tree ornaments to decorate it) and place candles on it.
Christmas Decor
Decorate your home with a little Christmas tree by using scrapbook paper and turning them into a tree. You can find the template here. It’‘s cheap, and you can even make it with your kids at home!
Homemade Wreath
Add your personal touch by creating a handmade wreath. You can use a lot of items that are readily available in your home. Take a pool noodle foam, for example, wrap it in fabric or excess felt, and voila, you have a lovely wreath. Don’t forget to add your mistletoe!
Festive Memory Garland
Hang your photos in a Christmas garland – use an old garland or buy a cheap one. Use a small clip to hang your pictures and scrapbook accessories to decorate the garland. Your family or guest will surely love taking a trip down memory lane!
I hope these inexpensive holiday decorating ideas helped you save a few bucks. Remember, it’s not important whether you have cheap or expensive decor, what matters is the essence of this Holiday – giving and loving.
