Let the Countdown Begin

Well, Christmas is right around the corner and winter days are here. Dressing up your home in a festive look can be done in many ways. Depending on the style you have throughout your house, any holiday decorating you do should still reflect that style. For example, if you have lots of white and cool colors than using silver, blues and white for your festive makeover would be successful. If you have an eclectic home than mix it up and have fun!

Here are some great inspirations to get you busy, if you already haven’t started. I was on it the weekend after Thanksgiving. I hung garland through the house, the stockings are hung and lots of gifts are under the tree. If you need a little push or want some new ideas, check out these next ideas from Better Homes & Gardens and get movin!

Choose a simple color scheme and stick to it. This will bring a traditional holiday a modern makeover. Pick two colors and go with the flow.

Keep it simple but feature the color of the season, green! By laying garland on your mantle or around a doorway, your home will immediately feel warm, cozy and festive.Let the Countdown Begin

Get creative and feature a main element that is not traditional. Instead of a wreath, combine a little bit of nature in a basket and you have an interesting arrangement.

This is what I am talking about by going with the style of your home. This winter wonderland says it all. With silvery tones, lots of white and pops of blue, this space is classy, modern and gorgeous.

And keeping with the nature inspired decor, this space is earthy, warm and classic.

Show off your crafty style and mix it up with rainbow lights, vintage flair and unique elements.

Show off your holiday collections with style. Get those knick knacks out and feature the little items you love.

Use items you wouldn’t normally use for the holidays and create an interesting and unique feel in your home. Get artsy and think out of the box for this one.
