Happy Thursday, friends!
Last week, I shared a few WAYS TO MAKE HOLIDAY DECORATING EASIER, and today, I thought I’d share 10 EASY WAYS TO ADD A LITTLE FESTIVE into your home.
Once again, I’ll remind you that I am a person who subscribes to this…
…but I know that’s not everyone.
Some of you just aren’t an obnoxious decorating person.
Some of you are currently in a season in life when you need simple.
Some of you like to ease into things instead of turning your home into a Hallmark movie set in one day.
Some of you have limited space and/or limited storage.
I added one pillow to my bed last week and this blog post idea came to me because…it really doesn’t take much at all to add a little festive in your world 🙂 .
Here are 10 EASY WAYS…
Just play holiday music.
Done.
Simple as that.
It requires zero storage.
And you won’t get sweaty and glittery putting it out.
My preferred holiday station is Pandora’s Michael Buble Holiday, but any festive music will do. It truly is the easiest way to add a little festive into your home.
Add just a tiny bit into your kitchen. Whether you swap out your “normal” mugs for holiday ones or…
…swap out your basic rubber spatulas for festive ones, easy easy little tweaks like this are a fun, inexpensive, easy to store, practical way to add a little festive into your holiday season.
My mom always did this growing up, and now, I do it too…
…just sprinkle some festive candy or treats around your home…
…will people eat it? Yes. And you just replace it.
I don’t keep candy and treats sprinkled year around, but during the fall, I’ll have candy corn out and during the Christmas season, a variety of treats. Everyone loves this little detail 😉 .
Add some words. A little sign…
…tucked on a shelf or cabinet is an easy way to add just a bit of magic without taking up much space.
And this was what inspired this whole post…
…I added a big, fat red pillow to my bed and bam…it looked festive 🙂 .
Truly, as easy as that!
Adding a pillow or two makes any spot a festive spot.
Another easy addition…
…changing out your placemats and napkins. I actually like to do this several times during the year because even in the middle of spring or summer, simply swapping the table linens brightens up the whole space.
Allllll of these are easy ways to add a little festive, but this is certainly one that is super, super easy…
…changing out your scents…
…swap whatever your normal scent is for pines and cinnamons and cloves and your house will instantly feel more festive.
Just one string of lights…
…adds a whole lot of festive…
…right? Just one strand is all it takes.
Hi, my name is Shay, and I collect cookbooks.
Each holiday season, I always pull out…
…any festive books and set them around my kitchen…
…not only are they festive, but they’re especially fun to flip through this time of year too.
And last but not least…
…just change out a doormat…
…you can swap the ones both outside…
…and in.
And those are 10 EASY WAYS TO ADD A LITTLE FESTIVE into your home this season.
FESTIVE SLIPPERS are always an easy touch too 😉 .
Okay, what are some of your ways? I would love to know! Please comment and share!
