6 Tips for Simplifying Christmas
If you’re like me you love decorating for the holidays. But, sometimes it can get overwhelming. Between work, kids and family visiting for the holidays, it can be hard to find time. Here are a few ways you can simplify decorating and enjoy time with your family.
- Pick a Theme
It can be colors, reindeers or snowflakes. Picking a theme before you start decorating will prevent your house from looking like Christmas threw up in it. Create a Pinterest board for Christmas 2019 and only add inspiration that fits your theme.
- Start Early
The sooner you start planning the less overwhelming decorating becomes. This doesn’t mean you have to put your tree up in July, just start thinking of where you want what this year.
- Choose Focal Points
For most, this will be places like a mantel, dining room or stair banister! Start there and work your way out. Not every square inch of you house needs to be decorated. Go big in your main focal areas and keep it simple everywhere else.
- Shop
This one is EASY and might be the most fun. Hobby Lobby is probably the best place for holiday décor but there are a ton of great online options as well. You never know what you’re going to find.
- Be Faux
Okay, not really. BUT, using faux garland in your home. You can get a few years’ worth of use out of faux garland as long as it’s stored nicely. You can always change up what color bows or beading you add to it.
- Get Cozy
Don’t forget to set your flannel, fleece and fuzzy pillows. What’s the point of all this decorating if you can’t cozy up on the couch with some hot chocolate and enjoy the masterpiece you’ve created?
Cheers to a simple yet magical Christmas season!
